Obviously, i'm going to do Lincoln.. Mine are as follows..

Man City home 4-1 in the Cup

Man City away 1-0 in the cup - Super Gijsbert Bos!!

Brighton when we got promoted - 97/98

Codheads away last season - Won 4-2 (Yeo Hattrick)

Newcastle friendly in '96.. i was mascot..

Cardiff Number 1.. Well, it was all about the day out.. 2003

Crystal Palace in the cup - We lost in injury time i think.. With them 9 or something like that minutes added on.. about 92/93 i think.. was my first away game

Obviously the Blues game last season stood out for me.. The best team lost on that day.. :D

I can't think of anymore off the top of my head..

This is really minor
Em is far more important to you, and us blues that are wishing the best for you both.

Best Blues for me is before you were born-sorry.

Carlisle, believe it or not were pushing for a top six position. Arsenal at that time were beatable by Blues.Chelsea were below mid table (like us).

Blues were going through a usual crappy patch (located between sept-may), when trevor francis ( a legend) was hoofed up a long ball toward the tilton/kop corner.
He forced a throw in 10 feet from the corner flag. Looked up and saw that all of the blues were still in our own half (freddie goodwin manager, spiruitual father of steve -no guts- bruce), picked the ball up, threw it at the back of the retreating player to bounce it of his shoulder for a corner.
Which we got, which we wasted.

That all took place in about 20 seconds. Which was how good Trevor was, and how rubbish he was surrounded by at that time.

Thats my best memory chop.

But it isn't worth anything more than the good health of your partner.

God bless both of you.

Some of the Villa games come close but when Darren Carter smacked that penalty in against Norwich - well, it was out of this world.

One of the best days of my life - thanks lads. B)

Worthington semi against the Tractor Boys - AJ was on fire.
I felt sorry for Burley!
We went to leave with about 10 mins to go (yes I know it's not the done thing, but we were home and dry!), and as we got to the top of the steps he scored again, everyone went mad and we ended up back at the bottom of the steps again!
Great game, my first match and after the final I became a season ticket holder until I moved abroad last year!

Best moment has got to be when David Sullivan, and the Gold brothers took control of our declining club. Also Karrens fresh approach to put us back in the spotlight. Being introduced to brum in the 70s for my first ever match. best football match 4-4 against Nottingham forest (Watmore hatrick) and any match against the villa is always special but the first game back in the top league is tops for me after so many years of hurt.

Actually brummie I remember that game also....was a real classic and was the feature game on the old Star Soccer (ITV)


We won the match 4-3 though and Forest were then still managed by the late legendary Brian Clough....if I recall they had recenty signed Ian Wallace and Justin Fashanu (bigger clown than Whatmore turned out to be for us)

......was the 81-82 season I think

Keep right on

Leeds 3-3 at St Andrews we were losing3-0.If Leeds won they got the championship.If they drew or lost then it went to Man Utd.1966Ithink. Full House the only room was in the Tilton when some taken out from the non-stop punchup behind the goal.Leeds matches were always the same! Next has to be the semi-final at Vile when we hit the woodwork 4 times v Baggies.Their goalie prevented a cricket score. The same as the semi v Fulham.Again we totally decimated them and they scored in injury time. Watching the finals,had we got through we'd have won easily.Then the earliest match I remember v Carlisle cup replay 1955.Over 60,000 me on dads shoulders,the constant roar! Not much more.remembered of that.It was the first match with St And.floodlights otherwise it had to be Wednesday afternoons!
Taitie at Wembley and Darren Carter starting a whole new era I hope!
There is also a special memory for the match we at Tranmere when Pompey put a reserve side out v Baggies and so we won but got relegated.But the Blues fans were magnificant and to see them on the pitch carrying Barry FRy on a lap of honour(a relegated manager!) on their shoulders.Imagine any other fan base doing that,I can't think of one.All in fancy dress,which started that off!.Barry Fry put us on the map.Everyone knew of us by the time he left,I would love him back as PR man and Press/T?V spokesman.He could talk us up the division.!

One of the games that sticks in my memory the most - other than those that have already been mentioned was the 6-4 loss against Swindon. We were all so happy to have the lead and then on comes the ageing Glenn Hoddle and bing bang bosh we were dead and buried! :lol:
