stumped mate
i remember the terrible run but i don,t remember the particular game.
i had a season ticket in the east lower during the 3 seasons rimmer was at the club.
i have to say he was a fine keeper and i strongly believe he kept us up in 74/75 and 75/76.
the only thing i can say is it was not v aston villa.
we played them twice at highbury with rimmer in goal and did,nt concede a goal
jan 76 0-0
april 77 3-0 macdonald,armstrong,nelson.
i will ask the guy who sits next to me today if he has any recollections
