    I wasnt even born then back in '70 and beyond!.
    But I agree we all have these good and bad 'bogey' teams, who we never seem to win or lose against.

    Just checked -Warnock didn't play in our 1-0 victory in the League Cup at Oakwell, but he had played in the Division 3 fixture there in the previous season. The reason I remember the league game is that I spoke to him as he was entering the ground. He'd scored a spectacular goal for us at Millmoor in the previous game that season (2-0 v Southport) and I spoke to him about it. He said "Did you like that? Ill try to get another one"... but we lost 0-1.

    Our victorious League Cup game was on 19/08/1970. Millers team was - Tunks, W.Houghton, Leigh. Bettany, D.Watson, T.Swift, Brogden, Hague, Phillips, Bentley, Mullen. Sub - Fantham. Trevor Phillips scored the only goal
    (I don't have the details of the Barnsley team)
