 Season 2004-2005 : Chester City v Yeovil Town : Saturday 19th February 2005
Colin Miles had been clattered by Robbie Foy early on and after attempting to carry on, ultimately found that impossible and with his knee giving out, a stretcher had to be called for, and Kevin Amankwaah was drafted in to play in the centre of defence.
Chester did manage one very late chance to provide an injury time showdown, when Foy took advantage of a 50 yard lobbed ball into the Yeovil penalty box that was allowed to bounce, but he spurned Chester's one and only golden second half chance by scooping the ball over the bar.
Whether this was to try and rough up the opposition, or to provoke them into a stupid retaliation it was difficult to tell, but it was so widespread it had to have been an instruction from the dressing room and it was a miracle that no-one had risen to the home side's baiting.
