    Watching the Millers, what's the nearest you have ever got to experiencing...

    the Liverpool v Barca or Spurs v Ajax, style comeback?


    I would say the 3-3 draw with Derby county at NYS under Warnock.

    Norwich 4-4

    I still smile at that game when I think back at it.

    Both the above + re-call a Game @ Millmoor v Darlington (?)
    2 late goals pulling a victory from the jaws of defeat

    Remember in the seventies we were losing 1-0 at Peterborough with five minutes left and we threw the kitchen sink at them. Unfortunately someone saw me so I got kicked out.. We lost 2-0.

    Seriously I remember seeing us win 8-1 at Crewe. They scored first.

    Remember us beating Plymouth 4-3 after being 2-3 down in the last minute.
    This season beat Swansea 2-1. Remember us losing 2-0 at home to Rochdale in injury time and drawing 2-2.
    Last season beating Doncaster 2-1 after trailing going into injury time.
    On the downside remember leading Birmingham in the sixties 3-0 at half time at Millmoor and losing 4-3. Late sixties were three goals up v Bristol City and drew 3-3.
    My best/worst ever was a 4-4 draw at Swansea after leading 4-1 with 20 mins left.

    I recall the Norwich 4-4 although it was they who equalised with the last kick.

    All in all though I must agree that the 3-3 draw with Derby was very special, not only being 3 down with 7 to go but it also kicked off that terrific run under Neil Warnock.

    Although in the end we didn't prevail I'd say the FA Cup game at Millmoor against Man City when we were 3 down after 14 minutes then threw everything at them for the next 75 to get back to 3-2 before giving up a Peter Barnes breakaway goal at the end to lose 4-2.

    Every time I read IBS's thread title for some reason I think he's going to end the question with "...an orgasm"?

    The " orgasm " bit comes during and after reading some of the replies.

    Derby match takes some beating.
    Hull City away this season with Paul Warne in charge.
    Having played well we found ourselves 2-0 down at half-time.
    Quite a lot of Miller's fans had given up on them and fully expected a 4 or 5 nil scoreline.
    Outplayed Hull City that second half and played some good football in getting it back to 2-2. Another one we ought to have won yet didn't.
    Just shows what you can do with some average players and a lot of team spirit.

    Three nil down to Fulham after 20 minutes in 1982 , pulled one back just before half time .

    Came out in the second half and blew them away , big Tony Cunningham got the winner on his debut in a 4-3 win .
