Leg out of the bed
Beating Millwall in the Eighties 1-0 at their place, with them on a thirteen month home unbeaten run. Sphincter-testing coach ride away from the ground :ohmy:

Pretty much agree with all those and was at every one except Hereford where I couldn't get a ticket but would add somewhere the 1-0 win at Anfield in the league which from memory was the season before the cup win.

Beating Derby County and Ipswich Town (both League Cup Games if I recall correctly). They were Div 1 and we were Div 3.

Can't disagree with those, but spare a thought for a couple of games against Villa - the Charity Shield, and the 2-1 at the Goldstone in 1972 which kicked off our promotion run in - best game I ever saw at the Goldstone, and John Templeman's surging run and Willie Irvine's sublime finish...........embedded in my memory that one! I also remember being 3-0 up at half time against Palarse one Boxing Day - and the Palarse fans hurtling down the road afterwards with the mounted police at the gallop in full pursuit!

I won't bother correcting as others have already done so. However, other than that it's a pretty good list of which I only missed one of those games (play-off game).

Beating Derby County and Ipswich Town (both League Cup Games if I recall correctly). They were Div 1 and we were Div 3.

We beat Ipswich in the second round and WBA in the third, going out at Derby in the 4th after a 1-1 draw at the Goldstone.

I agree with all these. Also the midweek 1-0 win over charlton that set up the Blackpool climax on the Saturday. 30,000 inside the Goldstone and tense as hell.
