Eintracht Frankfurt 3-1 CWCSF game for importance, brilliant performance, atmosphere being a night game also helped.
Man Utd 75 2-1 good result and performance, stood out with so much going on and off the pitch, inside and outside, game stopped due to Man Utd fans ending up on the pitch (payback for 67) and for most hostile atmosphere. Was at Millwall 09 and no comparison, different times.

Egg,
I did it in 1987, only time.
Funnily enough my Dad found a certificate yesterday where I had attended a Junior Hammers coaching course in May 1986. I'd stick it on here but have no idea how I'd do it.

Beating Liverpool 4-1 in '89, and Everton 2-1 in the FA Cup a season or two later.
Brady scoring against Arsenal and diving in the Chicken run was pretty mental

Beating Liverpool 4-1 in the league cup, we were bottom of the league, they were champions. It was also the first time I started a song and much to my surprise everyone in the south bank and east side corner joined in (we're on the march with johnnys army....) , that probably sounds a bit lame but it was exhilarating to a fourteen year old kid.

Thinking more about it, honestly just grateful that my life worked out that I have any memories of it at all.
Tons of respect for those than made it what it is. Including those on here.

Ipswich in '86
Arrived late and ground was sold out (loads getting on the tube at UP to go home as I arrived) but got into East Stand at half time as some firemen were coming out. Unbelievable atmosphere and as others have said, a real belief we could go on and win the title.

The first time I walked up the steps in the old west stand and saw the pitch for the first time will live with me forever.
Game wise, I'd say Cambridge in 93 and then Ipswich play off game.
