matthefish2002 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Think most memorable league I have ever been to is Newcastle away in August 1996 when we won and went top of the league. Think the smell was of b.o. as it was a very warm day. I remember shaking after the match with the adreneline rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarboro-owl Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Manure at Hillsborough 4-4, the day the kop was invaded and Jim Holton broke his leg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maxine Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 As I've only been going for a few years, Leeds at home last season is my most memorable 6-0 fantastic. Loved it that much I bought the DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Distraught! Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Not the best game but memorable for other reasons was the Bristol City game at Hillsborough during the 90/91 promotion season. I will never forget the ovations that Trev and Roly got when they were substituted. Fantastic atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdial Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Wednesday v Hartlepool at the millennium. It really felt like we were back and the relief of not having to play in the pub league and in the JPT was immense. Shame we sold all the best players from that team and went down again.

sanderbeard Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 1st game I thought of was Villa when Big Ron returned beating us 2-3. Opening game of the season 1991. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustyfunk Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Oldham game 90-91 (2-2) was something else in terms of noise and atmosphere, as was the Man U 3-1 game the following year Losing 4-0 at half time to Norwich in the pisssing rain was pretty miserable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JoeClash Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Dec 74 - Wednesday 4 Man United 4 Thousands of ManU on the Kop while as a 13 year old i had my blue n white scarf safely tucked up mi 3 Star Jumper ! Watching the tactical fighting on the Leppings lane where hundreds of Wednesday attacked the couple of thousand Manchester from the right, then the left. then the left and right ! When we went 3-1 up, mini pitch invasions from the Kop and the game was stopped while Police horses came on the pitch to calm things down. Jim Holton broke his leg. Quiet as a mouse when we we went 4-3 up but bursting with pride inside and could'nt help a great big smile on mi chops. Gutted when they made it 4-4.
