These days top flight games are played primarily for TV audiences. Despite what Sky and betting company ads would have you believe, you cant have a mental with your tea on your lap listening to Jamie Carragher.

Complacency and expectancy. Man City fans completely expect to beat Schalke so when they score it's completely expected and is greeted with apathy. It's an arrogance that's crept into modern football. We do it too, such as whenever we take the lead at home to someone we expect to beat we greet goals with half arsed cheers. What is this mythical beast?

I just think that 19 times out of 20 it would have been chalked off. Atkinson would have sent Bertie off.

Dave Kitson away at Middlesbrough in our first season back in the top-flight.
Found a video, it's around one minute into this.

Huth v Aston Villa on the evening when Pulis' mother had died. We had been appalling in the first half but came back roaring in the second. Kenwyne scored his first and looked like the next great hope then Huth diverted an Etherington cross into the top corner with about 10 seconds left. Brilliant moment.

Crouch’s wonder goal against Man City where we took the piss out of their nicked Poznań Certainly the happiest mental I've ever been in, if that makes sense. It was just the sheer shock that it had gone in, never seen so many people smiling after that. Always pissed off we didn't close out to win it in all honesty.

Difficult to top Stein’s second vs. Man United moments after they’d equalised, especially with the away end in the middle of a “you’re not singing anymore”

The crouch wonder goal v man city, couldn't make it to the game. Sat at home watching it on Sky eating a curry, suddenly ball in the net I leap up and jump around as If my arse is on fire forgetting about my curry, which ended up with the plate upside down and curry all over floor, and a rollocking from the misses.

Recent ones I can think of are Jonny Walters putting us in front at Anfield before we got smashed 4-1. Ended up about 4 rows in front, hugging some bloke I've never met.
Another good one was Newcastle at home on a Tuesday/Wednesday night, think it was 2nd season in prem. We were 0-1 down and playing terribly, but somehow I think Walters equalised with a good header, then just before the end we snatched victory from the jaws of defeat when kenwyne knocked down for Cameron Jerome to stroke home, lovely stuff.
Ric at home to Newcastle was also good when he smashed home after kicking Joey Barton.

Went down a flight of steps at Peter Thorne’s winner at Wembley 2000. Still doing my jeans up after a slash and nipping back to the seats, goal goes in and I’m just about to celebrate when I get bundled by what felt like the All Blacks scrum about 30 yards away. Bloke who looked like Fred Elliot sat on my face as he was chucked off the end seat where I landed too. Had better days in the crowd-despite the result!
