    Buzzing for them. A last minute winner to gain promotion. It doesn’t get much better than that.

    On the plus side it’s another derby.

    On the negative side it’s a club who should (with their crowds) have more money than us to spend.

    Did that bet come in then?

    Remember you had Bradford to go up and was being offered a cash out

    Remember when we got promoted that day to Premier League and we had played Bradford City.
    Their fans were on pitch with us celebrating.
    A really fantastic moment and something I'll never forget.

    They were class to be fare' i believe a couple of coaches from Barnsley went to support them in their relegation battle after aswell' we went from fierce rivals in the 70s to having a bit of a special relationship' great stuff' if only everyone could show such class to each other and get on..

    This Fleetwood vloger has done our games before. This is a good vlog even though I'm not a fan of either team.

    Controversial opinion but I still maintain that Barnsley fans caused most of the trouble that day. At the next home game I saw grown men admitting to disgusting behaviour "to prove a point"

    Is that the time when at full time we were all made to stay in our seats, not even allowing people to go to the concourse so they could use the toilet.

    I went to both games 1st one under wilson we sold the back of the net and the little half stand on the side. Think there was quite abit of bother after the game. Next season we played them 1st game under Lee jay we had the allocation cut due to the behaviour of fans 6months earlier and before during and after the game it was police everywhere. Towards the end and after the game people we stopped from going into the concourse even to use the toilet I remember even older folk been denied that. I remember your take on it very pro police but sometimes common sense should prevail.

    I remember it too. Given especially that at the time Bradford themselves needed points. So it was mighty sporting of them to react at the final whistle as they did!
