    York last came to Oakwell in a competitive fixture.

    We won 3-0 which put us top of the old 4th division.

    Apologies if already posted, just thought that was a nice little stat.

    Remember that game - it was the one in which Alan Clarke scored his first goal for us at the old Spion Kop end.

    I remember Clarkey rising for the cross and seeming to hang in the air before planting his header firmly downwards past the York keeper.

    It was a realisation that we had someone with a bit of class in our midst, and the start of some special years in the late 70's/early 80's.

    I'd guess at 8/9 thou - we'd won the first 5 games that season - lost at home to Torquay in front of 12,000 midweek. Which was our highest attendance for ages.
