    Fantastic day apart from the sporadic violence. I've always wondered if the Millwall fans
    would have " kicked off" if they had won.? Real shame when you consider that not one
    single player from that memorable day is still at Oakwell.

    I'd imagine no matter the score many millwall fans were intent on trouble before and after the game. We stayed in the ground a long while celebrating when we came out they were still alot of millwall fans loitering after bother. Like conor says I enjoyed both games but oxford was a much better atmosphere for familys and oxford gave us a more competitive game to be fair.

    They were hanging about to applaud us, that's why they are family club of the year.

    " You only sing when you're rowing." That was going on as we walked by on our way to our seats.
    Have to say, theOxford fans took it all in very good part.

    Got chatting to some of their supporters in McDonalds after the game and they were very friendly and
    complimentary about how our side played football.

    Like us, they had an extremely high regard for Malcolm Shotton who played for both teams throughout his career.

    Just watching again. In most cases my memory of a goal is typically far better than reality.

    That strike by Adam Hammill is still brilliant to watch and is still an amazing strike. What an fantastic talent we had in that lad.

    Not one single player - that’s why in many ways things are better now than they were then.
    We have players now on long contracts so bit by bit a team will be built.
    No matter how joyous the Wembley final win was - we knew that it was built on shifting sands.

    That was an outstanding side at league one level and made a great impact on the championship until it was broken up.

    How many of the millwall team are still there? Genuine question btw...

    What a season! That game still brings a tear to my eye. Absolutely battered the most hated team in the country.

    The ifs maybes and what could have beens following...

    Amazing that at one stage we were bottom of the league. That team should walk League 1, and for the second half of the season, it did.
