I was at the everton game aswell. I had a vague memory of seeing a replay and it not actually being handball. He slid in along the line didn't he?

I think I prefer Blackburn in 90, over stoke, but only just.
Other great ones are
Birmingham 93
Plymouth    92
Tranmere    93
Oxford        90

Not been going to away games for many years.

Gills away last season for the atmosphere and whole day.seeing a riot van charging down the road by ground followed not very closely by a group of fat old bill running after it trying to get to the pub  

Wycombe away 3-2 parkins late goal

Just a shame there's so many bloody northern teams in the league

Shrewsbury 95/96,fucking ace.We won 2-1,getting revenge for the only loss we'd had at the County Ground that season.And at the end no one was going to leave cause we'd been promised a big thank you from the players,so they had to come out,i was squashed against the fence as our heros walked past Cheesy

There was only one thing I ever dreamed about

I was persuaded to go in the seats for that one as I had a broken leg, despite standing on the terrace at Blackpool a couple of weeks before.  On the way to the ground a pub load of Swindon fans sang me 'come on your crutches, you even come on your crutches' :smile1:

Only just clocked this thread. Sorry if it's been mentioned before, but my favourite was our 2-0 win over Oxford. Steve Robinson scored two and they had two sent off. The game was even stopped for a bit because they were throwing so many coins at Mildy. Andy King said they weren't paying him enough because he came off jangling! Happy days

we also got a police escort back to the train station that day. They tried to bundle me on a train to Swindon when I wanted to go back to uni! Took me 10 minutes arguing with the coppers before they'd let me go to the other platform!

only just seen this thread too, most of my favourites have been mentioned - birmingham, tranmere, blackburn. i remember a 4-3 win over bristol rovers in 87 (?) but for some reason it was played at ashton gate, that was pretty special. any away game at brentford is great for me cos my mate's a brentford fan and we always go out and get hammered afterwards.

Surprised I hadnt put anything in here

Obviously winning 6-4 at Birmingham was something else ..

Apart from that and the year in the Premiership where I made it to every game INCLUDING Newcastle which was a bugger to get tickets for ..

Id say beating Watford 4-0 away the year we made it to the premier league - Chalkie got a hat trick! - was one of my faves. Also the game at Peterborough which got put on telly was a cracker too ..think it was 3 all?

Gilligham play-off final at selhurst park when the second goal went in my glasses got knocked off, could not see a thing and then unbelieveablly someone found them about 5 steps down and passed them back just a smal chip on one corner, which is amazing as the celebration went on for about a minute solid everyone going mental, god I miss standing at football.

Not really, its not technically away, its neutral.


Thankyoo, doore

It goes without saying both Wembley trips were memorable, I was thinking more of your standard games rather than one off's, though I suppose technically the Tranmere and Gills games I list were one offs  Oops


Sorry to be picky, but there were THREE Wembley trips

Arsenal
Leicester
Sunderland

in order of fantasticness
