What I'd give to have either an Ian Taylor or an Andy Townsend in our midfield now, let alone them both in there!

There can't have been many times in history a team has come from behind to win 7-1!!!

No snow.

I remember freezing in the snow at home to Wimbledon once

Also remember chucking snowballs at Steve Ogrizovic at Highfield Road in the mid 80s. He was fending them off with his goalie's man bag

Yorkie's finish!  Good times.

Remember that

when he was in front of us second half one of of them landed on top of his head and he pretended nothing was wrong and he played on with it on his head for a couple of minutes

There was a blizzard early in the second half for John Gregory's first game in charge v. Liverpool. We won 2-1. It was the game where Collymore -who scored both our goals- claimed he was the victim of racist abuse from a Liverpool player.

Funny how 12 years on we are in Championship yet averaging 5-7k more average crowds than then in the premiership

Was it Sheff Utd we beat in the cup away and the sides of the pitch were absolutely full of the shovelled snow, think Yorke scored a cheeky penalty too?

Great game. Though I think Stanley's claim came the season after when we lost 4-2, but it could have been 7-7. Steve Harness was the target of his wrath if I remember correctly?!

Dublin, Collymore and Merson were my second favourite ever front three, after Yorke, Savo and Tommy Johnson.
