I'm going for most memorable for different reasons - just things that stuck in the memory bank 1) Eastville - Millwall 1984 - Mickey Barretts last game. Can still remember the near post header 2) Newport at Somerton park 1987 Perimeter fencing pulled down, 1-0 win ensured old div 3 survival 3) Southampton friendly in centenary year. Autograph hunting on team coach with one of the Wallace brothers flicking peas at Peter Shilton - couldn't catch any 4) Brentford away - Carl Saunders debut. Destroyed them 5) Shrewsbury away on a couple of occasions - one word. WEETABIX Weetabix trip could well be on again next season.Short trip for me.

2nd May 1990 v the sh*t (obvious) Blackpool away 1990 (again obvious) Grimsby at Wembley 2015 (important then, but with hindsight even more so) Shrewsbury at Wembley (bought a ticket for my brother for his birthday, he left us a a few years later, so glad I did it) Mansfield 2014. (Terrible then, but the catalyst for where we are now. ) Agree, these would be my five as well.
I was at all of those games and the difference in emotion between number one and five could not have been greater.

For me.... -any time v city especially 1990 and 20000. Was only 8 at that famous Twerton game, but i still remember getting crushed with the celebrations -everton 2000 in the cup. Never forget those celebrations from the team running and sliding through the water logged pitch towards the blackthorn end. -shewsbury 2007 Wembley. Igoe's goal will stay with me forever. -derby County. Fa cup. Ellington's hatrick. -and last season againsed grimsby.those penalties still send shivers up my spine watching it back
