Mine was Norwich v Cardiff 2008
If i remember, City went 0-1 down but Joe Ledley and Roger Johnson scored in the 2nd half to win 1-2.

It was so long ago that I don't remember, but I can remember going to Bristol City in the Anglo something cup back around 1977 so it's someone around that time

Since then I have done probably over 100 different grounds and I used to love the away games

Aston Villa late 60's. May have been 1969, whatever year Villa were bottom of div 2 and ended up relegated to div 3.

Bury 1976 with my father the night we won promotion. Afternoon off school and walked in without paying. Weeds growing everywhere in the stand and a big pitch invasion when we won and Palace lost. Brilliant!!

Swansea 1988 little woods cup second leg. 1 nil down from first leg and beat them in extra time. I think Paul wheeler scored 2 as a sub. Got a smack outside the ground as well.
