    I cant remember the year,
    it was at Oakwell
    the memory,brings tears to my eyes
    GORDON PALLISTERthe Left back
    of Barnsley
    imagine it,the ground full,
    the game evenly conteted,
    Pallister,getsinjured,can hardly walk
    they puton thelet wing,no subs in those days
    they try not to give him the Ball
    when they do,the west ham players are reluctant to tacklt him
    it happened at the Ponty end
    he gets the ball near the byline
    they dont tackle him,he licks the ball
    he scores
    Barnsley win 1-0
    happy new year

    Another 1-0 win over West Ham

    That springs to mind was on the last Saturday before Christmas 1990. West Ham were unbeaten in the league going into the match, which was settled by a thumping Mark Smith header from a corner at the Spion Kop end.
    By the way Bob, you have a PM from me.

    Despite the result, for what it represented, it has to be the opening match of the Premiership season for me. Red hot day and when Redfearn gave us the lead I thought the roof of the Ponty was going to come off.

    I always remember Barry Davies commentary for that goal on Match of the Day, he roared with almost as much emotion as a Barnsley fan, he knew what it meant to a small cub hitting the big time for the first time in their history !

    Happy Memories !!

    I was there as well. To come back from 2-0 behind and absolutely play them off the park was special. And Im on the video celebrating the goals!!

    I was there too, although as I was working and living in London and couldn't get tickets for away end, i was in with WHU. They weren't happy. Even at 2-0 down at half-time you could sense there was still something in the game for us.

    Truely a magical night for all Reds

    I can see missen on the vid, somewhat slimmer, in a green Wedding Present tee shirt.

    I was there as well. At the front with the denim jacket on doing lots of arm thrusting!

    There were loads more there than that, surely

    I went down on the supporters' coach from the club with a Leeds-supporting mate of mine. Not sure how many were there and I've not seen the video for ages ('cos I'm embarassing on it) but there must have been a lot more than 50 there I'd have thought. We could probably get up to 50 just with BBS members who were there!

    You were probably on our bus from the old social club.
