Better comeback 2012 v 2022

[Brightwell Bros.]

Someone is going to do it eventually...

The Mail claimed it was a better comeback. What do you think?

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

Jesus it’s not even comparable.

 

[yankblue]

Today was incredible, but nothing will ever top 2012 for me

 

[Stevieatlasblue]

The greatest comeback ever

 

[Theengelbert]

Yeah agreed.. todays was amazing but it doesn’t compare to 2012. I suppose the only thing you can say about today is that villa were a much better and well organized team than qpr and they had 11 men on the pitch til the end

 

[supercity88]

We came back from 2 down so it was better in that regard. But to come back with no time left and a history of recent misery... that just can't be beaten.

But today was fucking amazing so i have voted for that anyway.

What a fucking club

Today was a better comeback in many ways but 2012 was more intense and more dramatic.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

For what it's worth, his rationale is...

"And then, arguably, the greatest comeback of them all. Greater than that Aguero moment? Probably, yes, because the road back was so much harder. Queens Park Rangers were down to ten men that day, and already safe from relegation. They were a poor team, though. Villa, by contrast, are dangerous, certainly on the break. They are coached and peopled with former Liverpool legends, who would have been fielding hopes and prayers from Merseyside all week. And they were ahead by two goals."

2012. It was our 1st top league winner for .. too long. We’d been down 2 division’s and come back.

2022 was great, knackering, but sadly was more emotional, to me, about shutting up the sychophantic media love-In of the ‘quad squad’

 

[kinkyblue]

I thought so, needed to score three in about 15 minutes!

 

[hateutd]

Both are great and history now, but I just don't want to see this again.... Enough for my health !!!!

2012 by a long way. Today was absolutely magic though and the fact it was from 2 down makes it special in its own way.

 

[trumpton]

2012 was late, and we needed 2 goals. Today we needed 3 and before the first goal we didn't look like scoring. In 2012, we had a striker.

2022 for me. 3 goals in 5 minutes, end of.

I don't think anything will top the drama of 2012, but in pure sporting terms scoring three against a better defence is unreal.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

I worry that anyone saying today forgets the levels of importance to 2012.

Ferguson. Fucking Ferguson and his empire of cunts. The sign. The entire football world trying to stop it weeks in advance.
Then you have the fact we turned it so late.
It changed our club. If it hadn’t happened we’d have completely imploded.

so drink today in, but pay respects to what happened that day in 2012

 

[whipper]

I know it not in the poll, but the Gillingham game for me. Put us on the path to where we are now.

We were also playing 10 men in 2012. That said, we really did leave it late.

 

[Rochdale Blue]

I would say todays, but only if it stops the media spouting their rancid waffle about the mentality munsters pulling back fourteen points.

 

[Bluefen]

2012… the situation, the fact it was United and the timing

was still epic today - how lucky are we to witness today, 93:20 and Dickov playoff ?

 

[jimharri]

Depends what your definition is. For me, it's 2012, as it was the all important first title win. And that's how I've voted. That being said, we WERE "only" 1 down in that game, compared to two today. But it was the VERY late show against QPR. Today, we scored the first goal with 14 minutes left. It gave us a chance.
