Hi In 1912 was Bramall Lane Football Ground half in Derbyshire, it's a on going thing for years with Barnsley FC Supporters with old folk law saying the Barnsley winning Goal in the Cup Final was scored in Derbyshire. Is this fact or fiction?

Hi Ken, Don't think so. The 1902 boundary between Yorks & Derbys. ran from Dore along the railway as far as Heeley then turned east. So Bramall Lane would seem to always have been ours, lying north-west of the railway.
