My top 5 games, not for entertainment though.
August 2017
Palace 0 v 3 Town
The sun was shining and the beers were flowing, Town were about to make a Premier League debut and i don't think anyone thought anything about the result we wre just happy to be in the big time league. Fast forward to 5pm and a magnificant win for the Terriers, more beers on the train home, more beers in Wakey and just back in Flockton club in time to see Town on Match of the day. As footall days go it couldnt have been any better.
May 1995
Brentford 1 v Town 1
Town win 4-3 on Penalties
The atmosphere in the away end will live with me until the day i die. The game was end to end from what i remember with both sides having chances to win it it in extra time but it was Bully that won it for us and sent us back to Wembley for the second season running.
May 2018
Chelsea 1 v Town 1
The point that kept us in the Premier League.
Having just pulled off the unthinkable by drawing 0-0 at Man City we quickly followed that up with a trip to Chelsea. Again we all hoped we could do it but i doubt anyone thought we would. Those minutes after Chelsea had equalized felt like hours not 30minutes. Fantastic support by the Town fans that night and amazing scenes in the away end. Proud to be a Terrier that night and drunk for about the following 3 days
May 2017
Reading 0 v 0 Town
The play off final.
The game itself for the neutral was probably very forgetabble but as a fan present in the ground it was gripping knowing that one mistake could cost you.
The pre match atmosphere in the Green Man and the support in the game from the Town fans was first class. I know i'm biased but i really do believe the support we gave them that day gave the players the belief that they would win no matter how it was settled.
Getting out the car park after was bit of bitch though, by the time we got home all the local pubs were shut.
April 2010
Stockport County 0 v 6 Town
This fixture was always special to me as i work for a company based in the Stockport area.
Another cracking day. Edgeley was a sea of Town fans drinking in the pubs and on the streets, it was a real party atmosphere and the Team didnt let us down either.
