Your top 5 highs as a City fan

[mcfcliam]

Following on from PB and Dave..

In no order...

1. Wembley 99

2. Blackburn 2000, how we won 4-1 that day is a mystery after them hitting the woodwork everytime they attacked & we had a pitch invasion the game before at Maine Road and we'd have looked like wankers if we didn't end up getting promoted.

3. FA cup semi and final this season (going to count them both as one.)

4. Blackburn at Maine Road, 2-0 down, Tiatto sent off, we make it 2-2, great game.

5. Pitch invasion - Birmingham at home 2000.

These are personal highs of mine, obviously there has been more important results than a few I've mentioned...but this is just when I've felt the ultimate high as a Blue.

1. First game at City, vs. United, 2006-07 season. Meaningful as it'd been television and everything, to be there and taste it firsthand was amazing, even if we did lose 1-0. :(
2. FA Cup Final 2011. Explains itself, first trophy I have seen us win and just an amazing thing.
3. FA Cup Semi Final 2011. I was at this game, great atmosphere and to beat United to get to the final and their reactions afterwards was priceless.
4. City vs. United, 2007-08. First game I saw us win, Geovanni will hold a special place for me, as the first goalscorer I saw for City etc.
5. City vs. United, 2002-03 season. Strangely remember this game, even though I was only 7 years old, was great to see.

I haven't added any that are around the same time as the 5th, as I can't remember them really, odd that I can with that one though true. Obviously I'm probably forgetting a key game or two, but off the top of my head the ones that come straight to mind are those.
