For me it was the last gasp winner v Bury when we'd done everything but score. Even though it wasn't happening for them, and the keeper was taking 2 minutes with every goal kick, there was still that belief that they could still pinch it. And they did, thanks to a brilliant 1-2 and a cool finish from Ebanks Landell.

Also a mention for the 2nd 45 minutes v Bolton when we absolutely arseholed them.
 



EEL's goal vs. Bury was indeed class. Most of us were settling for a point and then boom. Similar situation with his last second equaliser at Fleetwood.

Also very fond of the last minute pen at Gillingham. "How shit must you be, we're winning away..." little did we know! Tufty's celebration became an iconic Blades moment too. Great stuff all around!

Favourite moment of the season still to come for me . Still to come and cannot wait .
 
Bury was very satisfying.

Probably Port Vale though personally. We'd won most games by the odd goal until that point but had yet to really put teams away comprehensively at the Lane. We then obliterated them 4-0. A result that finally justified the performance.

Making Bolton look like inept wankers was also very sweet after the media events of that week.

Don't forget the four disallowed as well. Eight fucking nil (almost).

Might sound a bit daft, but most enjoyable game was probably one we didn't win - Bradford away. It was great to play in front of a decent crowd, in front of two teams who went for it. Enjoyed that.

Not daft at all. Proper footy in front of a proper crowd. Which is why I hope Bradford get through the play offs

Yes. Beating Fail 4-0 was an amazing performance, and beating the peado's from Bolton was pretty good too. Also 4-0 v Swindon at home takes some beating. Fabulous performance.

Swindon was a funny one. I said to my mate "I don't think we've got a bloody goal in us today". Then the 2nd half happened :)

A game we clearly deserved to win but for some great GK, slack finishing and a bit more composure. Still, Bradford and indeed ourselves made it a great game to watch. The quick free kick stands out in that game for me, pure brilliance and deserving of an higher level.

Spoke to a Bradford fan in the car park after who said ours was the best team performance he had seen for a few years of a visiting team to Valley Parade and that he thought we would romp the league. In true Blades fashion I played down our chances but he's ended up being spot on. Without doubt the most entertaining game of the season
 
The late, late winner v Bury for me too - the experience/feeling was incredible.

Can still picture Couttsy's surge. And, regardless of if he's shit for the rest of his time here, EEL will always be iconic because of that moment, in this season.
 
This might sound bizarre.

But during the pummeling of Bolton at home, Fleck absolutely levelling that Bolton player with a 50/50 challenge made me leap out of my seat.

In that second I got nostalgic about what being a Blade is all about - Watching players wearing red & white demonstrating their commitment, passion and desire.

We've got that excitement back but this time with players who also have technical ability.

A satisfying moment for me personally.
 
Firstly there was this exchange with the chuff who stands next to us, at the Oxford home game, just after Hussey had put a corner straight out. He was slaughtering Wilder.
"Do you think Wilder told him to put it out for a goal kick?"
"Oh do you think Wilder's doing a good job? (Before I had a chance to respond) there you go then, yer chatting shit"

Fast forward to the Port Vale game when we were destroying them...
"Feel free to pose your fucking question again"

Flecky's goal at Chesterfield is a close second.
 
A funny moment for me was watching the Coventry game and the commentator starts to mention there's a bit of crowd trouble. Apparently United fans were gauding Coventry fans with chants of "we love you SISU". Comedy gold and only would it be United fans with such banter hahahaha

As much as I love Fleck, i'm not sure it was a 50\50! He certainly came out of it in a better shape than the Bolton lad though.
 



Many posters have nailed most of my choices with the late Bury winner, hammering Port Vale and absolutely out classing Bolton after everything that preceeded the match.

I would also add Tufty's touchline run after EEL'S late equaliser vs Fleetwood, the whole 2nd half vs Chezzy and Billy's late winner v Cov, everything was stacked against us that night and we showed the fucking lot of em.

I could go on with more. Basically a fucking great season.
