Agreed mateGood points Fernando and well taken. Just looked up that actual game again - we were 1-0 down and then scored 3 goals away at Leeds (who were a big deal at the time) within 10 first half minutes. That's why I went mental. And Huckerby was sensational. I guess my feeling at the time was that given the players we had on the pitch: Whelan, Hucks, Dublin, McAllister was that this was the launchpad to future success. With the right manager and with the budget that we had back then - it should have been so much more.
Kevin Kyle winner last minute away to QPR
George Thomas at Wembley
Also that Moussa wonder strike last minute away to Preston a few years back
Wasn't there but when Ian Painter missed the pen v Stoke remember going mental listening on the radio at home.
The greatest moment ever celebrating a goal - 13:50 12/4/87 broke my watch in the mayhem. Never know a goal like it before or since.FA Cup 87 semi equaliser v Leeds - A spiritual experience! :happy:
Mine as well OSB. We were losing 1- 0 at half time but when we took the lead I went mental !The first 2 goals against Wolves in THE match at Highfield road.
Only times I have ever run on the pitch (and that includes my playing days...)

Clarke JPT is easily my best Ricoh moment

Moldovan at Villa was brilliant as we'd missed a few chances and felt like the same old story

I've told this tale before, but I was at the match with about 10 mates, most of who were Villa fans, and we all sat in the Villa end (can't remember which stand, but the goal was scored to our right). When Moldovan scored, me and one of the other City fans stood up and cheered, and the stewards had to come and protect us from our so-called friends who decided they wanted to kick our heads in. Made me realise how much fun football can be, and luckily all was good in the pub afterwards. I never went to a match with them again though!
17th October 1992Away to Everton no idea what year. Ndlovu ran the length of the pitch to equalise just before half time. Ended up sky blue army chant for the whole of half time. Home fans thought we were nuts!!!
Moldovan against Villa in the cup, Mental!!!!!For me it was Boxing Day, Elland Road, Huckerby scoring the third (he terrorised the Leeds defence all afternoon) after we were one-nil down.
I ended up hugging a complete stranger and dancing in the aisles. Both very unusual events for me.
The future looked very bright for us at that time.
I was in the stand along the side home end, next block to the city fans. Loads of Cov in there and chaos after we scored. I ended up out the ground and just walked back into the city end.
Ah yes, the radio commentary went something like "and he scores, in off the bar, no it's been saved, yes it's a goal, no it didn't cross the line" I was in a heap on the floor.Killers goal against Luton when we had to win the last 3 to stay up.
Went mental and when I started to calm down I was in the 18 yard box. Can't even remember going over the fence.
Wasn't at the previous game away to Stoke but by all accounts when Oggy saved the penalty it was off the scale madness.
