Remember Pallister and Mowbray passing ball between themselves in last minutes and all around us clapping because we thought all we needed was to play for time and we also in play offs ha!
I remember one season we advertised a burger and a pint (something like that anyway) as a special deal at a higher price than buying them separately. That was a "that's my boy" moment. Special.
Beating Liverpool and Chelsea to get to the FA Cup semi-final - only to lose that to a team who finished mid-table in the same division as us
Leading 4-1 after 80 minutes and drawing 4-4. I think we did that twice, against Ipswich and Stockport.
Allowing 2 tickets per season ticket holder vs Liverpool at Anfield when the number of season ticket holders exceeded the allocation already.
And the Middlesbrough fans taking the mick when we left, made things worse. And the fact that we'd done the league double over the team who won the Play offs!. Which was Notts County, and Colin W*Ker. Typical!!.
I think that's one of the only games I've ever been genuinely fuming leaving. Pretty sure they were already relegated too, and we chucked away 2 points to them and their 9 men meaning we needed to win at the champions Wigan the week after...thankfully that went alright!
Beating the runaway leaders and eventual Champions Newcastle, 1-0 at home in Dec '92. But losing 3-0 the following week, away at bottom of the table Southend. And we've done things like that, many times over the years.
Conceding 3 in the last 5 minutes against Ipswich. I think it was Ian Marshall who came on for them and turned the game on its head
In season '89, when we stayed up under Machin. We were the only team to win away at Champions Leeds in the league, and did the double over them. And we also won away at eventual runners up Sheff Ure. But compare that with two seasons later, we failed to win any of the 6 games against the three relegated teams. And both Brighton and Plymouth, did doubles over us. How typically frustrating!!.
