jambodinho Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Obviously been so many ups and downs this season but what in particular has stuck in your mind and made you think that it could'nt get any better than this? For me watching Scotty Murray's wonder goal fly in on the opening day of the season to put us 2-1 up with minutes to go, the sun shinning down on a packed Ashton Gate all going mental to the sound of Chelsea Dagger by the Fratellis has to be one highlight (although it only lasted for a couple of minutes!!) Also on a number of occasions walking out of Ashton Gate after just beating our opponents and everybody is singing 'Drink up thy Zider' as the away section of fans are looking on in awe. It's times like that which made me feel proud to be a City fan. Over to you..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over to you..... 1) - the whole performance against sheff u at home (on the telly) - played so well that day 2) - trundle's goals against scunny 3) - Watford away 4) - Boom booms 99th min leveller (ha) against mrs doubtfire's palarse 5) - Orr's last gasp efford against albion - a great game of football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fodbarmyarmy Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Best moment is hopefuly still to come... But if I must choose so far then it would be Hearing Southampton sing to our 3k away support "where were you when you were sh#t" Made me think how many times I had sung same to other clubs on their rise (reading / Wigan et al) and made me realise we had at last "arrived" in the higher echelons and were obtaining respect for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezgimed Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Watching the Watford game on TV was remeniscent of the Boro away game last year, was awsome. I'd say Steve's winner against Norwich was special too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityboy Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Topping the table at various points was also pretty sweet. Who'd have thought that would have happened this time last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldengraham Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 As i was working overseas until the end of October. It would have to be from my first game of the season. Ivan Sproules wonder run against the Saints. Stood in the east end i couldnt beleive how good it was and as i was watching City for the first time in 2 years was loving not only the quality of players that we had brought in but the level at which we were now playing. But as has been said above hopefully the best is yet to come. U Reds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CiderEagle Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Charlton away. Great atmosphere from start to finish. When they scored, we just sang louder until we equalised. Fantastic second half performance, still not sure how we didn't win it. And there was that bloke in the tree afterwards ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tin Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 The main highlight that will live with me for a long time was Charlton away on a Tuesday night. Nearly 2,000 Ziderhead's standing, singing, bouncing as one. Best atmosphere I think I've ever experienced following City. Superb stuff! Hopefully the main dish is still to be served though...

kevinmabbuttshair Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Coventry away winning 0-3, thinking Jesus Christ we've got a chance here. WBA at home, just a cracking game of football, 2 sides really trying to play properly and going for the win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza1982 Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Another game that sticks in my memory was the 2-0 home win against Ipswich. I remember the first 25 minutes we were so in there faces, every one of our players chasing down every ball, harassing and not given them a chance to gain any rhythm. It made it all the more special as a few weeks previous we had been hammered by them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mart Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 The game at home to Ipswich. My Ipswich born brother-in-laws birthday, so i brought a ticket for him to see his team. He didn't stop going on about 'that' away game during the drive into town. Highlight of the season was his silence on the drive home. Priceless.

bringbacktherobin Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Has to be charlton for me, deicded to go at 4pm the afternoon before got the last coach ticket to go up with east end wurzel and his old man. Then the best away atmosphere i have been too in my life, we didnt turn up for the first half but a different team in the 2nd half, we made it 1-1 then mcindoe hit the cross bar and i think everyone thought it was in. All that was missing from that night was a win but for some reason the 1-1 draw felt like a win and i thought we were going to g up auomatic, but the play offs will have to do.

Agree 100% with that - absolutely fantastic standing all game and just singing our hearts out. A mate of mine is a Charlton fan and he confirmed that BCFC fans were by far the best to visit the Valley this season. Happy days, and lets hope they get even happier over the next few weeks!!

Mighty Squirrel Kingdom Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 I know it's a bit rubbish but queueing at the end of August for Manchester City tickets (we were sixth in the league at the time) and thinking 'this is more like it', then the last minute goals at Watford and at home v Norwich.

beau45 Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 For me it has to be Norwich away (and the tractor ) And also Charlton away, best atmosphere i've experienced, felt like a win too... Promotion at Wembley is going to be the icing on the cake though!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 coventry away was a fantastic day out i couldnt really say tbh the whole season has been a quality year losing my voice at qpr,and palace,watford etc but i would say the return of stevie brooker as you say hopefully the best is to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tunley Legend Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Charlton away is my highlight (although Wembley will be better). The best atmosphere I have been part of at a City away game for a long long time. The whole club "looked and felt" like a top Championship outfit that night.

WarksRed Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 a cold night in Hull, battling with 10 men for a point (how valuable is that point now) ... clapping the players off at the end, and looking over to see SL and other directors s standing to applaud the team off as well. maybe not a glamorous memory, but one which summed up both the teams and the fans spirit and belief .
