Been mentioned on other threads but Stoke at home late 98, came from behind to win 2-1 , really got behind the team and then we went on a run all the way to Wembley and Gillingham win which could have a thread of its own.
I was sat in the Platt Lane that game as couldn't get a seat next to my mate in the Kippax. The atmosphere was incredible, after going down, we chased down every ball that game, never gave Stoke a moment on the ball with a few lovely crunching tackles going in (if memory serves me well).
Bournemouth away in Feb 99 and Horlock getting sent off for aggressive walking was another classic, I just remember the 'are you Brighton in disguise' chants.
