    Coming up soon. Do we know if the club is doing anything to mark this?
    Apologies if I've missed anything.

    We play Blackpool that day, so maybe we're marking the occasion by being relegated down to the third tier ;)

    I've heard he's going to ref the Blackpool game.

    Michael Owen's going to be up front for them.

    Darren Barnard will do a lap of honour, on crutches, with a labrador walking behind him.

    Don't see why we'd bother to the mark the occasion. Concentrate on the current squad.

    It definitely should be marked in some way for me. It’s unlikely to ever happen again.

    I’d say the Dundee fans would be happy with that as he is having a nightmare time as their manager.
    Not that I am at all bothered. Quite liking it actually.

    Not lied by Barnsley fans Ian ,on our promo to prem he was manager of Wolves who were our promo rivals and he gave an interview to the media stating the Orem would prefer to have Wolves rather than a small team like Barnsley .

    Haha well I’m so glad he missed out. TBH he is not the brightest lamp in the street. Full of wind and piss and I’m happy to see him fail again at Dens.

    I may be on my own here, but I really hope we don't make a big deal of it. Yeah mention it, parade a few legends of the time, but don't "celebrate" it and go overboard, to me that smacks of small town mentality and other fans will have a field day with it, it's got the potential to be a bit cringy.

    Those lads are legends and gave us our greatest ever season. But at this point it's money for old rope and going over old news. They have had a movie and numerous other nights to remember that season by such as audience with. Nothing can be said that hasn't already been said about it. The current squad need the support.

    I get your point, it doesn’t have to be over the top but it deserves some kind of recognition.
    The current squad does need our support but come April 26th the fight could be over. If we don’t win on Saturday it very likely will.

    I’m not certain celebrating the anniversary of this would be to the detriment of supporting the current squad. It’s not like everyone would be like : “well we clapped the legends so that’s it for me today!”
