I think it will be the biggest game(s) that I've actually been too. I'm too young for the '83 final (I was 1, at home with my mother...) and although Hereford was bigger (the biggest game in Albion history IMHO, and bigger than anything that is yet to come - no other game will be responsible for our very existence) I didn't go.

I think this is bigger than any of the 2004 play-off games, including the final - promotion to the Premier League is so much bigger than to the Championship, so the only other games that have been bigger are probably the 1991 final and the Newcastle game... and I didn't go to those either.

In summary:
1 - Hereford
2 - 83 Cup Final + Replay (if these two legs count as one game so do they)
3 - Newcastle '79
4 - 91 Play-off Final
5 - 13 Play-off semi-finals.

Christ, it makes me even more nervous grouping it with those, even if it is only number 5...

Agree with the above list, but if we make it to the premier league that would be my no.2 after Hereford

FA Cup Final, FA Cup Final Replay, Hereford, Doncaster at Amex opening Day, and Play off final against Notts County, all of these were as Big as if NOT bigger in my opinion

This for me also.

In terms of what it meant to me personally the '83 cup semi is still the high water mark. The cup was as almost as meaningful as the league in those days and the feeling I had at the end of the game was unbelievable; the team I watched week in week out were going to play in the final. At that age this was pretty much all I wanted in life.
