That was the one for me. One of the very rare occasions where the ground was rocking and the celebrations at the end were something special.

The 4-0 win over Newport with a team made up of mainly teenagers, with Koroma scoring a hat-trick was fantastic to see.

Its a shame the times were dreadful during the Italians tenure, and the club almost went out of existence, but none of that detracts from this game, the way our boys played, and the result

Arsenal at home in the FA Cup was a wonderful occasion. The moment JT's shot hit the back of the net was probably the 'limbs' of the decade if not the game. 😎

We would not have got to play Arsenal without us having turned around the Droylesden game.

2 down with 10 minutes to go, we went on to win 8-2 AET on a freezing cold night.

Many to consider: Any / all those already mentioned but throw in the 3-2 against Eastleigh last year when we dug very, very deep to get the points?

But, yes, the 3-1 at Peterborough for me.

Got to agree .

I even missed Chorley being sent off so i could exact some revenge on a Droylesdon sub who had been giving it the biggie in front of us while warming up .

It was only when i nearly crashed through the guard rope rail & shouted wheres your effing 2-0 now 15 while flicking a V -Sign at him in response to his. I looked up & saw The great bald one .
To whom I Said
"Oops Sorry Russ"
turned around & made my way meekly back to my friends & my seat by the corner flag.

I have fond memories of the 0-0 draw at Chestfield. What a weekend of hill walking, bakewell tarts, warm beer and a terrible match.
Its why I love the O's.

Except of course we have never played a Chestfield or even Brest for that matter.
