Memorable? There are a few, the FA Cup win over Man Utd, Ipswich at Wembley but it has to be the final home game against Bradford City where Clint Marcel's goal took us into the Prem. Worst has to be away at Reading back in the 80's when we were hammered 7 - 0.

Rotherham and Doncaster because they are the only other South Yorks sides in the division
Impressive
