Is it 10 years? I remember it being a Friday night the last time, stayed over and caught a plane to some England game on the Saturday. Can't remember that one either!

As far as I can remember it was a Tuesday night, the season we Won Div 3, we took about 3k fans, Mark Albrighton scored late on

I was there too. We were second best all night, then the Sarge equalised and we could have won it in injury time. Can't remember who it was that missed a sitter.
Will be there again on Satdy.
Expect we'll be outplayed again.

Wish Sarge was here now in his prime. He'd sort the buggers out

If that was towards the end of the season, when we were top of the league and flying after our recovery post-R*chardson, then I can understand it.

Our first League match for years against Wednesday's at Hillsborough resulted in us filling the Leppings Lane end top and bottom, I think Lewis Guy made his debut that day

KC stadium year we won the league, was my first ever away game. I was in the concourse and as i came through the turnstile i thought christ it's loud in there those 20,000 Hull fans make some noise. Got in and it was the 3000 Rovers fans in there not the Hull fans. We used to have a right set of fans away from home not just numbers the noise and mob mentality i thought. Now it's crap 1500 will go to Barnsley. 1200 will sit in silence or just moan all the way through.
