21/02/96 v West Ham (a) 0-2 Premiership
This was the one that put a real dent in the title challenge - Tino was put on from the start, hit the post and had a few saved but we went down 2-0.
"There were lots of reasons why we didn't win the Title that year but for me, the introduction of Tino lost us this particular game. It was just so difficult trying to accommodate him into a side that already had so many brilliant players in it and I think it knocked us out of rhythm. Having said that, when he hit the post - if it had gone in I'm sure we would have won it by several goals. When we went behind we just couldn't get back into it."
