It was the semi I think, but the first leg. We lost 2-1 and then drew 0-0 back at highfield road.
I seem to remember Steve LIvinstone scored for us at the city ground. If only......

It was the semi. Really harsh penalty given against Cyrille for their other goal as well.

Another vote for Spurs 4-3. 0-1, 1-1, 1-2, 2-2, 3-2, 3-3, 4-3. Quite weird portents of the cup final, e.g. fantastic header from Houchen (who in all honesty wasn't much good) for the first equaliser. Dave Bennett by miles my favourite ever player, feel about him the way my old man does about Tommy Hutchinson.

Always had a soft spot for Spurs after that season as well. What a good player Clive Allen was, didn't seem to have much about him, but scored nearly fifty goals that year IIRC.

How far we have fallen

Sheff Wednesday quarter final city fans were amazing, spurs 4-3 very close second. Cyril doing a 1-2 with the crossbar is my favourite city goal.

A lot already mentioned but will also throw in 5-0 against Blackburn in the snow with the orange ball and the 3-1 against Chelsea when they had to wear our away kit. Both great games.

And one, which I can't believe hasn't been mentioned, Coventry 6 - Derby 2, the last ever game at Highfield Road. What a game, what a fucking day!!!

Cov 5 Norwich 4 - Boxing Day, about 1892 (a while back, anyway!) Jimmy Blyth saved a pen in k=last minute and got carried off on people's shoulders. Great game !

it was pissing it down that day as well, remember we were standing behind the goal on an open terrace and they kept pushing kick off back as it was on the TV and news of Mandelas release was breaking.

My first ever game!! Hooked ever since. Some good games been mentioned but one that seems to stick out of late is QPR away. We won 1-0, Adebola scored. Thought we were excellent.

What about the 4-1 win last game of the season, '85? Brilliant that was. A packed HR, sunshine and goals. The only ever game that my late Mom went too. The last that Pearce and Butterworth played in before they went to Forest too.

My cousin came to her first match at that game and we had to tell her that it wasn't always like this.
