YalsonKSA - "I'm glad birthdays don't come round regularly, as I'm not sure I could do that too often."

I was at Wembley for the 2nd Division play-off final the year that Man City came back from 2-0 down to Gillingham with about two minutes left to go, only for them to score twice and then win on penalties. No other football game could possibly compare with that one for sheer, unadulterated, 'the-world's-turned-upside-down' madness. My friend (who is the Man City fan) actually left the stadium after the second Gillingham goal because he was so disgusted at his team's performance. We were halfway down Wembley Way when the second City goal went in, along with thousands of other City fans, only for everyone to hear the second roar and bolt back to see if it could actually be true.....

But for European football, that one has to rival the Man Utd/Bayern Munich final. Sure, this one wasn't so last minute, but it was astonishing just for being so unlikely. At the end of the first half Liverpool weren't even at the races, let alone looking likely of staging an any kind of comeback.

Well as a Liverpool fan, I was most pleased, with the second half at least smiley - winkeye

We seem to be specialising in these though. Our Uefa cup final against Alavez a few years back was not entirely boring smiley - winkeye
