The Reds faced Oxford United at Oakwell on August 4th in the 2018/19 season opener. The fixture was last played 20 years prior with The Reds notching their first win of the 1998/99 season thanks to a solitary goal from player/manager John Hendrie

The last man to complete a full season in charge of The Reds in the third tier without achieving promotion was Allan Clarke

The Reds’ most consecutive wins (10) came in the third tier in 1954/55 when they were last crowned Champions of Division 3 (North), their third league title. It ended at Saltergate, when John Jarman’s 85th minute goal wasn’t enough to overturn Chesterfield’s 3-0 half-time lead.

Dean Gorre scored the only goal of the game the last time The Reds began a league campaign with a non-British Manager/Head Coach at the helm. They beat Colchester United at Oakwell in the curtain-raiser of 2003/04 under the guidance of Gudjon Thordarson

The Reds equalled their best ever result on the opening day of a league campaign by beating Oxford United 4-0 at Oakwell. In 1981 they defeated Shrewsbury Town and in 1977, Rochdale, by the same scoreline at Oakwell
