Unbelievable. I was there, witnessed it, never forgotten it, and never thought I’d ever see it again. Brilliant!

Hilarious!
But I need to know more. Who is Eddie Bishop? A Chester player/member of staff? Why is he in civilian clothing? Why did he launch himself down the gangway like that?

He was a player there I remember it happening but no idea who it was. Just assumed was a drunken fan I think we had a few trialists that day including Gargo who went to Udinese and you'd think we'd lost on on the new African superstar the way some reacted.  They got the African bit right |

Poor Eddie I just remember watching the whole thing unfold in disbelief from the away end, and someone saying “who’s that, a fucking stuntman?” |

After a few watches back it looks like the ball whacks him on the head and he loses his balance & it sends him hurtling town the steps! |

Strangely got a bit naughty in town after. Was a Friday night I seem to remember and took girlfriend at the time to a French restaurant after and was a few lads going for it outside and later outside another place . Was a nice evening so may have just been a few too many Cherry Bs inside them.

Like a few others i was there and in that stand. It was only the next day i was told who the guy was who came over the barrier (i lived in Chester at the time) but had only seen him on the track after the fall at the time. Cheers.

After a few watches back it looks like the ball whacks him on the head and he loses his balance & it sends him hurtling town the steps! I think you are right, perhaps he goes for a header and loses his footing, not sure otherwise why he would be on his feet in the first place. But then also if he's a player how come he's not on the pitch or the bench, he appears to be in the crowd in a shirt and a pair of Levi action slacks, popular as they were at that time. Be good to get an interview with him, it was a landmark moment. |

My all time favourite clip. I always want to head the ball back, I hope I don't do that when it finally comes my way!! |

Be good to get an interview with him, it was a landmark moment. That looks right, because ball came back onto the pitch. The assistant ref totally ignoring him is another notable. There’s a lot going on in this clip. |

Clearly we needed a new right back even at that time, clearance straight out for a throw...or did I miss a deflection  |

Eddie Bishop played like Zidane when Chester hammered us at the Victoria Ground in the Alan Ball era.
