Was it one of the FA Trophy trips to Wembley or even the home victory against Weymouth that secured Boro the GM Vauxhall Conference title and a place in the Football League.

You might have preferred the 4-2 win against York City in 1992, when Darren Foreman struck a superb hat-trick.

Scarborough FC also had a knack of booking a big game or two in the League Cup.

Boro met up with Southampton and Arsenal, as well as having stunning victories against Portsmouth, Chelsea and Coventry City.

Mitch Cook: As a supporter it has to be the first Wembley trip for the FA Trophy game against Wigan. I was 12 at the time and just getting into being a Scarborough supporter, so to go to Wembley for a game like that was just amazing.

As a player I would have to say either of the two League Cup games against Portsmouth in 1988. I scored a last-minute penalty when we drew 2-2 in the first leg and then their manager Alan Ball said that we’d had our game and that they were going to beat us up here.

I chipped the keeper for our second in a 3-1 win.

Darren Foreman: Got to be the 4-2 win against York City closely followed by the 3-0 against Coventry. That whole cup run was so exciting.

Andy Bloomfield: I had never seen anything like the 4-2 win against York before and I probably won’t again. Scarborough just destroyed them.

Martin Dowey: The 2-2 draw against Southampton in 1988 was the first time I had seen a top-flight club and the atmosphere throughout was absolutely electric.
