Gateshead at home 3-2 Conference season. Was a great game and I was impressed with Gatesheads playing out from the back Chelsea (a) D&R (h) for obvious reasons

D&R 2-1 Shrews 3-1 at Wembley, Igoe's was my favourite Gas moment until Browner stole that crown! Cambridge 3-1 in 2003, Rambo's legendary cameo spell with the Gas under way in amazing style, the relief of that win was amazing. Unfortunately I didn't go to the Oxford or Darlington matches.

1) Wembley 2015 vs Grimsby - For the relief of saving our club.
2) Reading away in 1999 - got stuck in traffic with around another 1000 gasheads out if a 6k away following that day, and we didnt get into the game until half time when it was still 0-0. We ended up winning 6-0 with all the goals went in during the 2nd half..
3) Its a toss up between wembley win in 2007 and our 2-0 win vs City - Roberts and wally scoring in 2001.
.........
Games I didnt go to but would had made the list if I had, were the JPT victory vs City to get to a national final, and the Browner promotion winning goal game.

FA cup Liverpool 2-1 rovers what a day incredible support great goal from billy O right behind it watched grobalar diving thinking he's not getting that ended up about six rows lower
LDV cup rovers 1-0 S$*t full house / underdogs / cut the atmosphere with a knife & hero lambert comes up with the strike
league 2 rovers 2-1 Dagenham lucky to get a ticket sold out then offered tickets for away terrace went online just at the right time. I think along with most gasheads in this situation supporting for many years we don't get much luck so on that day the luck gods were shining down on us (despite it pi$%ing down on us in the open away end)just loved it everyone talks about browners winner but bodins equaliser was world class under pressure to get back in the game calmly waltzed past three/four defenders some twice and slotted home

At Twerton: Rovers 3-Ipswich 3. Marcus Stewart scores on his debut. At Twerton Rovers 4 Sunderland 0. they were all over us until their right full back took Kenny Hibbit out breaking his leg and effectively ending his career. It galvanised everyone and we went on to thump them.
At the gate when we one 1-0 Gary Smart scored a wonder goal but the hero was goalie Tim Carter. One of the bravest keepers we have ever had god rest his soul

Going for three that aren't obvious to mix it up a bit;
Crewe Alexandra 1 - 1 Bristol Rovers 17/05/1995
My parents decided to take me out of school for this one, telling the teacher they were doing so. My attendance had been spot on all year so the teacher didn't mind at all. Rovers had drawn the first leg at Twerton0-0 and knew a win or score draw at Gresty Road would see them into the Playoffs. The game was a stodgy affair going to extra time after finishing 0-0. Crewe took the lead in the first period of extra time leaving Gasheads scratching their heads. Nothing seemed to be doing. In the second half of extra time Paul Miller burst through one on one with Mark Gayle. His first shot was saved by the Crewe stopper only for the ball to bounce off of Miller's knee/arse/leg (depending on who you ask) and loop over the keeper into the empty net. Gasheads at the other end of the ground went mental. Eight year old me and my mum on the side in the seats looked on in awe. The players came into the stand after as Gasheads invaded the pitch meaning I was all over HTV News the next day hugging Marcus Stewart who'd just been stripped to his pants. My parents were quite glad they'd told the teacher.
Bristol Rovers 2 - 1 Brentford 02/05/1998
My first game on the Clubhouse/Blackthorn/Bass/Thatchers End. Rovers needed to win to get in the Playoffs against an relegation threatened. The Bees take the lead and Rovers see Gary Penrice sent off, Cureton pulled one back before going off injured and in the last minute of the match Barry Hayles got on the end of a Matt Lockwood cross from the right sending The Mem into chaos. My Dad told me before the match "whatever you do, don't run on the pitch". As the floodgates opened when Barry scored I was one of the first through the gate. I stopped dead on the white paint on the pitch. Didn't enter the field of play.
Oxford United0 - 5 Bristol Rovers 22/01/2000
Rovers went into the game without the banned and on fire Jason Roberts, lots of Gasheads heading to the Manor Ground that day would have taken a win by any means. What we were greeted with was one of the most complete Rovers performances I've ever seen. As someone that started watching Rovers in 1991 the 1999/2000 team was probably the best Rovers team I've ever seen. An attacking 3-5-2 formation would often see centrebacks overlapping, goals from all over the field and probably the most ridiculous set of strikers to come together in the clubs history (Roberts, Cureton, Ellington and Zamora all on our books). The Manor Ground was a mix and match ground and I stood on the open terrace behind the goal. Plenty of Gasheadshad made the journey and were greeted with a 5 star display. Goals from Robbie Pethick, Nathan Ellington and a Jamie Cureton hattrick gave Rovers a comfortable win that could have been more. It's a real shame that team couldn't keep their heads down and get us over the line, it was absurd. I doubt I'll see better.

City 0 Rovers 2 1996 (I think). Full house plus a few thousand, thousands locked out. Best atmosphere I have experienced. Liverpool 2 Rovers 1. 9,10, 11 thousand gasheads, stayed in Liverpool until early hours. Never had such a good time after loosing! Rovers 2 Daggers 1. Talk about drama!

1. Southampton away - Andy Williams last minute goal 2. JPT 2007 vs City - Lamberts Volley pure magic and kicked started his rise to the top. 3. Wembley vs Shrewsbury - Sammy Igoes goal at the end was the icing on the cake.

Not necessarily the best games but def most memorable top 3 x 3! Halifax away won 3-2 to stop falling into tier 4 for first time ever 62/63, the whole experience left lasting impressions with a young teen! Wembley and Sammy Igoe ,prob the single most mem moment.not forgetting Richard Walkers superbly taken double! Fa cup v Southampton and Paul Randall. cant stop there !so Rovers 7-0 Shrewsbury, 1960s Ian Hamilton scored 4! 3-0 v City, Champions ! 1-0 v City Lambert, get in! then again there was Watney cup and Dick Shepard,2-2 v Yeovil at Mem with 9 men ,2-0 and you F----D IT UP!ringing round the Mem,and who can forget 0-9 v spurs! there was no hole big enough to climb into and hide! Stop moaning its not 9 picks just 3x3!

Rovers 2 - 1 Daggers: That game had EVERYTHING that you would ever hope to get from a football match - emotionally drained at the end of it
Saints 2 - 3 Rovers: We were complete underdogs but we competed and won with an Andy Williams 88th Minute wondergoal - my best ever trip back from an away game.
Rovers 3 - 1 Shrews: Play off Final 2007 - Just a great day out, we showed so much character after going 1-0 down. 2 fantastic goals from a much underrated player in Richard Walker AND the Sammy Igoe Moment..............
I couldn;t make it to the JPT Semi vs the Sh*te otherwise that may have made it into my top 3
