Yes, Super Saturday for me too. An incredible night and one of those moments me, Mrs GB and The Boy (who was nearly six) all watched together (while I suspect my toddler at the time daughter was passed out).

It was the first time he got to stay up for something and perhaps the last event that many in the country will have watched together, with the exception of Royal ceremonies.

After that my lad pestered me for months to go and visit the Olympic Stadium, something I finally got round to for him in January this year, where he complained about the view and asked me if I was really going to pay that for a beer and a burger.

Either Super Saturday or Glenn Murray’s late equaliser away at Birmingham City.

Wheres the option for Dan Harding being substituted at the Amex before half time after Will Buckley tore him a new one?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

And where's the option for Billy Gilmour's MoM masterclass in Scotland's 0-0 win over England at Wembley at Euro 2020?

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Super Saturday very strong contender agreed
The day Eng won the cricket World Cup while Federer v Djokovic had an epic Wimbledon final another for me
That hour+ where Stokes shepherded Leach to a test win at Headingley
Murray winning Wimbledon
2005 Ashes

but actually
Hereford(1997)
Wigan(2017)
and of course……..

Brighton 4 Chelsea 1 - what a day!

Maybe me being picky but I don’t some of those as moments. Super Saturday was great ( I was in the Olympic park that day) but it was not a moment as such. It was an evening that built over time. And it included long jump.

I was there the last day of the ashes in 2005 and I was also lucky enough to be at the last day of the edgbaston test. I would have the wicket for the close win as a moment but not the whole summer. The last day with KP’s knock was incredible but then anti-climatic as it got dark. It became inevitable we had won.

I loved the miracle of medinah but again it built and the “moment” was a putt by Kaymer but not sure I have heard the radio comms much.

I think the moment I have heard the radio comms most from that list is “and Wilkinson drops for world club glory” as Rob Andrew (I think) goes mental in the background.

Sadly the United win in 99 would also have to be there.

I scored a TOP CORNER PILEDRIVER in the Jersey Hotels Cup final

HOW has this been OVERLOOKED?

 

[Is it PotG?]

Anyone outside Surrey voting for Man Ure in 1999 should be banged up.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Either Super Saturday or Glenn Murray’s late equaliser away at Birmingham City.

Ahem. Glen Murray’s late WINNER at Birmingham City.

 

[BrianB]

Bradley Wiggins winning the Tour de France ?.

For me it was Kipchoge’s record breaking run in Berlin in 2018. He took over a minute off his own record. His time of 2:01:39 has since been broken by himself and also Kelvin Kiptum but what made it special was the first half when it looked like it was going badly wrong. His 3 personal pace makers had all dropped out at the half way stage leaving him on his own ….then there was the slow realization, as his splits were coming in, he was actually getting faster and faster. At this point, and with a crazy estimated final time, we were thinking this is really going wrong and he’ll run out of steam….followed by another slow realization that he was looking comfortable and was going to do this. It was really was an incredible feat of human endurance and ability.

I missed Super Saturday as I was at Greenwich for the Equestrian events with the family. After the games we all went out in London.

As a single moment I don’t think anything in my sporting life has ever topped that 2019 World Cup win, a whole day of nerve shattering tension being released in one moment of ecstasy was just something else.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Yes, Super Saturday for me too. An incredible night and one of those moments me, Mrs GB and The Boy (who was nearly six) all watched together (while I suspect my toddler at the time daughter was passed out).

It was the first time he got to stay up for something and perhaps the last event that many in the country will have watched together, with the exception of Royal ceremonies.

After that my lad pestered me for months to go and visit the Olympic Stadium, something I finally got round to for him in January this year, where he complained about the view and asked me if I was really going to pay that for a beer and a burger.

Yep. That was an amazing day. I voted for that. The whole Olympics was amazing.

As was this hilarious prelude, which gave us 'Deliverance'. Sometimes at work when dealing with the more cockwombly end of things, I ask who is in charge of Deliverance. I just can't help myself.

Never forgot watching Hamiltons first F1 championship win on the last corner whilst extremely hungover in 2008

Incredible he won. Probably shouldn’t even have been driving.

As i was there, has to be Super Saturday!

Tyson Fury, having come back from the depths of suicidal thoughts and battling with his mental health, getting up from this devastating knockout punch.
