Your most memorable match....

[leefer]

Arsenal 1979,home and away.
Swansea away the same season on boxing day.
Liverpool away in the prem.
From my much younger days i remember Everton home and away.
Last week at Leeds was in my top ten

Also Wolves away in 1979 although the manner of defeat abit like the Bolton semi final left a bad taste.

Also right up there is Sunderland (H) 3-1 AET in the Milk Cup in 1985 which also, spookily enough led to a 5-4 aggregate victory One of the great nights.

That was a memorable game, along with the win in the next round against Sheffield Wed 1-0, who were 3rd in the old first div (Prem now), and had ben Man U a few days earlier.

3-2 Trannies (5-4 on aggregate) I think for the amazing game and atmosphere, combined with the reaction of the Tranmere fans afterwards, that is possibly my most memorable game as well.

I'd have to go with that over the final against Leicester. It was non stop up and down and the second half especially was a non-stop heart attack, my favourite bit was a bloke dressed as a scouser (shell suit, fake moustache and curly wig) climbing up on a wall and telling everyone to 'calm down' in a suitably scouse accent.

Though the recent Leeds game rates pretty highly for me as well.

Swindon 4 Blackburn 3 '89

Was that the "fog" game?

[crystall Tips]

yes.   that was the fog game  - have a feeling Foley got one - the winner maybe? Just remember standing on the Stratton Bank and not knowing we'd scored at all.

[stfcinbmth]

Aye I was in the Town End and I couldn't see a bloody a thing

[No Longer Posh Red]

Talking of games with Fog, do any of you remember the game at home to Bradford which was eventually abandoned with us 3-0 up>

They'd had a player sent off before the ref took the players off because of fog. After about 10-15 mins they came back on as the fog had cleared a bit, and someone I was with reckoned that Bradford had come back on with 11 players, but it was so foggy that you couldn't really tell.

When the game was re-played we were 2-0 up in next to no time, but eventually drew 2-2.

[Crozzer]

Swindon 2:0 Liverpool, 1969/1970 League Cup game.  Two second half goals from Don Rogers. 

Liverpool a few seasons later were to be crowned Champions of Europe.

[Mexicano Rojo]

I was at both of those games..how I remember it is going for my half time piss and everything was normal. When I came back the fog had come down like a blanket out of nowhere, You could hardly see the North Stand (I was in the old Shrivvy Road Stand) The game had to be called off but what a piss off! The replayed game as you say finished 2-2 and the equalising goal came very, very late in the game. Roy Wegerle scored one of our goals I think.

[fish head]

my dad took me to my first ever game against Oxford at home in 1995 which ill always remember.

but my most memorable has to be our 2-0 win against Oxford at the Manor in 2001, TURBO!

other great games that will stick in the memory will have to be our doubles over Southampton and Leeds this season home and away.

The ref for the fog game was our good friend Mr Elleray....I've seen a bit of fog in my time, but think that was the densest ever...you could hardly see the end of your hand....another memorable fog game, was Bormuff away in 95/96...the game was no problem, but it was the journey back, where you could barely make out the lights of the car in front..well scary.

Yep, remember that well..a 0-0 draw. I had forgotten how foggy it was though. Blackburn, Bradford, Bournemouth..I think that's about all the fog related games I can think of ..for now..

1987-Portsmouth away -won 3-1 (1-0 Down)League Cup-great atmosphere
                                                                           - great songs

[juddie]

brum 4-6 swindon
4-3 leicester
peterborough 2-1 (terrible game but great scenes afterwards)
season we went up to PL, the 2-1 home win v newcastle was immense.
both 3-0 wins v leeds were good

the short time we led brighton at the withdean in play-offs are among my most memorable moments watching town, too.
