Spurs away in League Cup.

That was a good night. Last ever railway “football special” I recall going on.

And what my dad made of the infamous (but loveable) Rex Evans who was sat opposite us, he probably took to his grave…

I was at the Spurs game - in the home crowd by myself and it was a bit scary with an ever present sense of danger, especially after the game (it was hard to stifle my excitement).
I'd also add Newcastle - 4th round FA Cup 1978 - to the list. Newcastle were in the old 1st Div but weren't a powerhouse. Nevertheless the first game at a soaking wet full St James Park mudpatch was spinetingling with a thrilling last minute equalizer by Dixie McNeil. We beat the pundits expectations (but not ours

) to handily win the replay 4-1 at Wrexham on another mudpatch. That was the cup run that led to us beating Blythe Spartans in a replay that was moved to St James Park to handle the crowd and 42,000 Geordies turned up baying for Wrexham's blood.
I was at all those matches and this team is starting to feel like that one.

Most fun was Birmingham away for me as I have never been in crowd like one when KK scored the third but happy to conceed it wasn’t our biggest upset.

I was up in Newcastle with work late 90’s. Walked through an underpass somewhere where there was still spray-painted an (albeit fading) “we hate Wrexham” graffito.

Dunno if that is an insult or a compliment.

West Ham away, when Rooster scored with only a couple of minutes left and we joined in with the home fans chants of “sack the board”.

Wouldnt reach the top 5 but beating a very decent Middlesborough team with Gazza, Juninho, Ziege, Southgate, etc.

Easy to forget we beat Ipswich at home in '94-95, they were Premier league at the time.

Still wouldn't be in the top 5 though, the OP has probably nailed it.
