Dioufy's goal against Pompey to send us into Europe.
Anelka's first against Gooners was like a Exocet missile
Nolan lobbing Mad Jens at Highbury, exquisite

Pederson's (Terry's) winner at Chelsea.

Leicester 5-0, a big hello followed by 11 years of pissing off every club we encountered.
Troll and proud of it.

On a more personal level, I really enjoyed meeting the likes of Coyle, Kevin Davies, Gardner in Charlotte last pre-season. Coyle arranged for them to come chat with the fans and take pictures and they were great. That's part of what has made this season so difficult. I knew Coyle wasn't going to cut it but he was such a nice guy that I couldn't work up Megson-level vitriol.

Two personally stand out for me;
Firstly are away win against Everton where Youri scored both goals including a winner in the last minute to continue our amazing streak at the time. This was special for me as I don't go to many away games and the atmosphere was fantastic and also cos I had to suffer shit loads of Everton fans at school.
The Megson 1-0 win against United at the bok was amazing. I travelled up for the game from uni and my brother was there with me and when the final whistle went I turned around and gave him a massive hug and he reciprocated enthusiastically. He was a young lad who has never ever given a flying feck about football and we have never been particularly close, I don't think we've shared a moment like that since but it was because he could see how much it meant to me and everyone around him. Magical. I seriously thought then we'd get back to the level we were at with Big Sam and Sammy Lee was just a blip........

Actually first season back up, down to ten men at highbury, 1-0 down and up pops Ricketts with the late equaliser.
Away end went mental.
Amazing.

Being on the back row, I banged my head on the upper tier. If anyone remembers Highbury, it was about 2'4" from the seat to the roof there.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

It's probably the first, and last ever time I ended up being crowd surfed during a goal celebration. I'm sure it was full time by the time I'd got back to my seat!

I watched the Bolton DVD earlier of our first season back up under Sam. Brought back some great memories!

Unless they did it twice. I definitely saw it live at WHL.
