Just wanted to see what everyones favourite live matches were. Mine I think you might think is a weird one but its Hull vs Kidderminster from April 2003 when we beat the Harriers 4-1 thanks to a ben burgess hat-trick and its my favourite match due to it being my first match I attended with my grandad and it was my first match live at the KC
Top five - Wembley, Emirates(the one we won obviously), Fulham away(Manucho's game), West Brown away(first season, just had a good day out with my lad and it was funny watching all the Baggies leave mid way through the second half) and the Nick Barmby Show at Sheff Wednesday.
City v Everton. Loved the feeling of going 3-0 up, even Marney scored. Then the sheer terror of the 2nd half. They score 2 goals in 20 minutes and then we hold on for the win.
difficult one, think it has to be my 1st match which I believe was Plymouth we were 3-1 down with 6 minutes left and we finished the match 3-3 or there is the 5-2 game where we were 2-1 down at half time or the Arsenal game in our 1st season Premier League, was a lot of fun, especially when your sat with Arsenal supporters
I still have a strange but big soft spot for the 4-0 against Hartlepool at Boothferry Park in either 97-98 or 98-99. Super Bri McGinty and Dave Brown with two each and an old Beardsley failing to be the match winner all the Hartlepool fans claimed on the other. Another one from around the same time was the 1-0 against Peterborough (my family mostly live that way now and I went to school there so I knew loads of fans in the away end). Hateley! scored a penalty for us, but then it looked all over when we conceded a penalty late on. Luckily Willo made a full length save down to his left and I have never gone more mantal in my life! Great days. P.S, Oh yeah, and something about Wembley as well! Living in Scotland at the time, was a 24hr round trip and cost me ÃÆÃâÃâ ââ¬â¢ÃÆÃ¢â¬Â âââ‰âÂ¢ÃÆÃâÃâÃÂ¢ÃÆÃ¢Ã¢ââ¬à ¡ÃâÃÂ¬ÃÆÃ¢â¬Â¦ÃâÃÂ¡ÃÆÃâÃâ ââ¬â¢ÃÆÃ¢Ã¢ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦ÃÂ¡ÃÆÃââââÂ¬Ã Â¡ÃÆÃ¢â¬Å¡Ãâã250 for the ticket! Totally worth it.
1990 Leeds 4 Hull 3, even though we lost, the atmosphere from the City fans away that day was sensational, they only won because the ref added on about ten minutes at the end!
FA cup game vs Sheffield utd in 08/09, just remember us being 1-0 down and looking like we're going out when Kyle Naughton scord a rocket header of an own goal, was in the sheffield stand with a mate of mine who supports them and I burst out laughing which everyone else was dead quiet.
Mine was versus Bristol City at Wembley. A stange choice to many perhaps, but that's how shallow I am. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Heipx01P5Uc&feature=player_embedded Was I the only one crying like a baby at this moment in time?
Wembley is head and shoulders above the rest - but if we're looking at normal games... I think I'd go with the 5-0 vs. Southampton in March 2008. After they'd tonked us 4-0 earlier in the league, I just felt they were coming to rain on our parade... but it just kept getting better and better and better!
For some reason I have really fond memories of Scunny at home in 2000/01. 2-1 up with them down to 10 men. Give up a penalty in the last 10 and Hodges hits the post. There was something just so funny about the way the ball pinged off the post. I enjoyed the Eyre, Francis, Rowe days (not quite sure why).
Mine has to be the day i got hooked, 97/98 7-4 V Swansea. shame it was the best match thats season. Best away was one of my first away games in the same season at Crystal Palace in the cup, we lost 2-1 but went through on away goals! Wembley was a great day out The worse has to be Rochdale away in some micky mouse cup, think it finnished 0-0 and we lost on Pens, not many City fans there that day!
City v Sheff Weds in 2004 at Hillsborough. Me and my dad (like so many) set off late and got caught up in road works or some problems on the roads getting into Sheffield. Got in just before they scored their first. 4-2 with 7,000 City fans in attendance was brilliant.
I loved the play off semi first leg against orient back in 2001 I believe. Wasn't the most entertaining game admittedly but just for the occasion and coming so close after what were such difficult times. Seem to recall it being a baking hot day and boothferry park was incredible
Hull 4 - 0 Luton. Was a treat for me dad for his 65th Birthday, they were high flying, we expected to get humped, almost exploded with joy.
Hull 4-1 Darlington First game of the league 2 (division 3) promotion season, first game of our first full season with Taylor and first full season at the KC . Alton Thelwell scored a worldy, it was baking hot and walking away from the stadium it just felt like we were finally going to get out of that ****ing divison... and we did!! Obviously Wembley's the number 1 but this is well up there for me!
