Best: Danny Cullip's goal, The Cheats, The Championship. A great evening.
Worst: everytime I see Clubs like Reading, Ipswich, Norwich, Leicester, Charlton etc get to the Premiership. And when I think of the support we have lost along the way.

Dont forget we also scored 7 against York City the same season. 2-2 at half time 7-2 at the final whistle ( If I remember correctly this was the main match shown on MOTD )The Great Cornholio said:

Best of times
FA CUP RUN FOLLOED BY THE FA CUP FINAL - how anyone who was around at that time does not vote for that I am baffled.
Worst of Times.
The last match at the Goldstone, sitting on the pitch not wanting to go home and the a few days later watching the West Stand being demolished.
Archer and Bellotti should have done time for that!

That's how I remember it. I seem to recall saying to the person I was with that Walsall would nick it in the second half too !

I was there - including at Liverpool away. But that championship after all the Club had been through just meant so much. And it all came together on that one night. We were WINNERS.
And we lost the Cup Final.

Best of times -
Home matches 1976-79
Cup run and Final, whole 2004 play off experience
Winning 7-1 away at Chester and KNOWING that Zamora was the bees knees
Last game at the Goldstone (when i started to belive we could do it!)
Hereford (when we DID do it)
Worst of times
