Second-half goals from Benjani (62 minutes) and Matt Taylor (70) cancelled out Henri Camara’s 33rd-minute opener to secure the Blues’ top-flight status with one game remaining – not bad going after sitting eight points adrift at the bottom of the table with just 10 games remaining. Is it any wonder, therefore, these fans invaded the then JJB Stadium pitch to rejoice in their team’s successful battle with survival.
