The 2 - 1 second leg win vs Atletico Madrid in 98.  Granted we may have lost the tie overall, but the stadium was rocking that night.

Gotta agree with that, also the 2nd half at the Walkers when we won 0-5, looked like scoring every time we went forward

I would have to say the same, twisted my ankle celebrating but hobbled home afterwards.

The 3-2 against Everton, the way we scored in the last seconds with the whole ground laughing and pointing as us. Lescotts face was a picture

Agreed. I actually walked out before the pens and sat on a wall by the Holte pub and saw people ebbing and lowing in and out as the pendulum swung. And bear hugging a complete stranger as we heard the cheers of the final one.

3-2 against Coventry. 2-0 down at halftime, Angel's first goal and a screamer from Merse to send them down!
