    Beating the scum 6-0 will always be my favourite, that result helped send them down

    What about the 4-1 win over Leeds the season they won the League (1990? '91?)?

    Sinton hat-trick if I (hopefully) remember correctly.

    Although i voted for the 4-1 win at Utd.
    The 3-1 at Arsenal was a special day for us R's fans. Never forget that day. We could not get tickets and ended up in the Arsenal end (along the side). There were 8 of us and we were pretty tanked up before the game. When Jensen scored we all got up and clapped as it was his first/only goal for the club and deserved the applauds. When Gallen Allen Impey then scored we got up and cheered as well. To my surprise there were Rangers all over the place, all around us. so we then started singing.
    A week later the Arsenal had t-shirts that said 'i was there when Jensen scored' . then a week after that we had our own... 'I was there when Jensen scored and Gallen Allen and Impey'. Classic <laugh>

    SuperHusky thought about putting the 4-1 Leeds win in (1991/92). Sir Les, Bradley Allen, Andy Sinton and Clive Wilson (pen).

    Third division Rangers winning the League Cup, by beating top draw opponents, after being 0-2 down at halftime, at Wembley, first time the final had been played there, first time it had been won by a third division club? Are you sure? You couldn't make it up could you?

    Not many clubs that can top that, not even us!!

    I have voted only on the games I have seen with my own eyes. So the 5-5 gets it. Closely followed by Liverpool last season (3-2) and the Chelsea 6-0, it just happened to be one of those days. Things were more equal back then. So on that basis the Liverpool game should get my vote.

    Has to be Wembley in 67, I was 6 at the time and went with my parents, don't remember too much about the game except that at the end my father had tears of joy running down his face......at that time the R's had spent almost their entire history in the 3rd division apart from a few years in the 2nd....never been in the top flight.....There is some archive footage of it somewhere, if ii can locate it i'll post it later.

    Has to be the 5-5 which I attended. The week before we had lost against Spurs 0-5 and it looked very grim at HT already trailing by 4 goals. Unforgettable moments...

    They're playing the City game at the end of last season on SKY as I write this. My goodness am I sick and tired of that blessed match.

    I am not sure which to vote for...so I will write this and then vote.

    67...it was my first season supporting the RRRs. I had their pictures on the wall...I suspect if they hadn't been doing so well that season I would not be on this board now....and followed my mum and become a Spud (she was from Tottenham).
    but Dad took me to a few matches and then got two tickets to the cup final. It was magical, being a third division team, against WBA...then going two goals down...and then all the magic to get back to 2 all, and then JUST KNOWING we were going to win (I never get that feeling now)...JUST KNOWING

    I was at the 5-5 all draw too...that comeback was mammoth, but it was all based on good/great players exploiting tragic defending. No I have convinced myself....simply for the feeling of KNOWING we were going to win, its the 67 Cup final is for me

    The Wembley final for me.
    Also I think 4-0 down at half time against Port Vale coming back to 4-4, I think Huston? was the manager and his team talk was if they can score 4 in one half then so can we.
