The 1-0 win at Old Trafford in 2015. Something like 20% possession and our goal coming from a shit Brunt free kick deflecting off Olsson's arse. Myhill bailing us out including a penalty save.

A freezing day with snow on the ground and a pitch of solid ice. We were both in relegation trouble if I remember correctly . Blues missed half a dozen open goals. A few minutes from the end of the game, at the Tilton Road end, we had a corner. Martyn Bennett with his back to the goal took a swing at the ball, sliced it like a golf shot, the ball looped over his head and into the net. A total fluke and a totally undeserved victory. Bloody hell it was cold that day. 4 wins and yet we still did the double over Blues... we both went down didn't we? Vile just survived for one more year... Personally I think we deserve every victory Especially the Carl Valentine one mentioned above. He'd be in the shit players list if it wasn't for that goal... All I recall is he basically tripped over the ball, got up, went over again ended up almost sitting on the ball and then still slotted it home (I think their keeper was totally bamboozled by his falling over), still one of my most remembered goals ! (go on someone spoil it and say it was nothing like I describe!)

Hoping my brain isn't playing tricks but IIRC we once played PNE at home and won 1-0 with a Lee Hughes penalty. I considered it jammy because Hughesy won the penalty after his heel was clipped inside the penalty area as he chased a ball that was heading out for a throw. It was a welcome 3 points but a very hollow victory and formed my opinion that all the rules around penalties need reviewing.

Think Gould was the keeper and PNE deserved a draw. Ricky Fuller defo played up top for them

Dingles away sometime in the 90s (fondly remembered as my drinking years hence not knowing which year) - Andy Hunt played the whole game without another Albion player within 50 feet of him. Long punt up field from one of their corners I think, he ran half the length of the pitch and put it away IIRC.
