Birmingham 4 Swindon 6.  Best away game, best comeback, best Easter Monday there has ever been, in history, in the universe ever, ever.

Never left a game so drained.  Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant day.

leeds away (first one)

being in the pub (White Horse) @ 4 and singing non stop until 7:45.

also shouting (pissed up) down the phone to Ralphy when we went 2.0 up.

Also Donny away last year was quality. 30 fans outsinging 3k. quality.

QPR in playoff season was good. great atmosphere from both sets of fans.

Man UTD away in CC match. 8k swindon singing our hearts out. was mad when Thorpe scored too.

Manchester united in the coca cola cup, was it 96/97?Huh?. Are 7000 fans out sung 50000 united fans and will always remember celebrating peter thornes goal.


Forgot about that one! I had corporate hospitality so was sat in the 3rd tier in a suit with loads of Manc business men - guess who was the only fucker stood on his seat going mental when we scored!

I remember the mancs sat round me when they were being thoroughly outsung, saying - why are they making so much noise? I said - that's proper support.  Cool


Hehe - I was over in the press box for that one. Cracking game, cracking goal from Thorne.

Leeds in the League cup (Wednesday, September 24, 2003) when we went 2-0 up against a premiership side...with two awesome goals.
Then we messed it up, but having sending off (and then seeing a goalkeeper score a goal) and lasting the whole of extra time with 10 men...
And then seeing a penalty shoot out!

Great great night out, great stadium, brilliant game of football, brilliant performance by us...just the wrong result.


Yep. I remember elbowing some granny in the head (accidentally) when Gurney put that one away.

Also, half time ... That was amazing. Every time the goal was replayed on the big screen the lot of us cheered as if we'd just scored ... very funny.

Also, one that does stick out for the wrong reason was Everton in the cup in 98/99ish. Culverhouse off in 90 seconds ... funny.

That really ruined the match, didn't it?  I'm pretty sure another of ours was sent off later in the game as well.  Hulbert maybe?  Also thirty odd Swindon fans had there cars broken into during the match.  It's funny how you remember things like that.

I really enjoyed the cup game at Old Trafford, despite us losing to their second string.  The most painful moment of the day was trying to walk to the toilet at the service station after drinking far too much.  I don't think I've ever been so bloated Cheesy   I also started singing Steve McMahon's Barmy Army on my own when surrounded by some meatheads singing anti-scouse songs on the way back to the minibus.  Youthful exuberence and all that, I'd never do the same now.

Yep, totally. The ref didn't, really, need to do it. I've not seen the tackle for ages but if memory serves me Ian tackled Kanchelskis on the corner of the box so hardly stopping a goal scoring opportunity ...

I was at that Everton game too,don't remember Elkins getting off,but it was very depressing so i've probably erased it from my memory :-))(
Culverhouse was sent off for a handball,hence the penalty they scored so early on killing the game off  Sad tbh the ref was right though,bastard Wink
