Little in this life is more satisfying than seeing your side come from two down to win 3-2.
What past examples can you remember? I recall beating Preston, the much maligned Jamie Thomas scored the winner for us, I think David Healey might have got one of Preston's goals.
My favourite away trip was to Vicarage Road early on in our last promotion season. Even the stewards were a good laugh which tells you about the atmosphere. The Blades found themselves two down as Leigh Bromby in particular was bullied by Darius Henderson, who grabbed both goals (what a player he must be, right?). Jagielka got us back in it from (I think) a Kozluk cross, Ifill scored a spectacular long range equaliser with his weaker left foot before Clarke Carlisle, who had been a target for the Blades that Summer, put through his own net to seal the win.
Not a 'two nil down' scenario but speaking of Henderson, an honourable mention to his Hat Trick which sealed a 3-2 away win at Bristol City. We were two up, blew the lead very late on only to go right down the other end and snatch it. Unbelievably, their equaliser, our winner and the Full Time announcement were the three consecutive updates on the SSN news flash thingy. I've never seen anything like that.
Sadly I didn't see tonight's game, so someone else can fill in the details. One other two down turnarounds do you remember from watching United?
