    Great finishes

    Was just watching the Falcons highlights-if you don't know, they scored 8 minutes into overtime (or whatever they call it ) and with the commentary it's one of those 'watch again' moments.

    It's here if you want to see it.

    Got me thinking, though...which are your favourite last few minutes watching us?

    Obviously, there are games where you know we're going to win so the whole crowd is celebrating...I'm thinking the 5-1 at home and the 4-1 away to the mackems, the 5-0 against Manure and the 7-1 against Leicester but what about ones where we snatched victory from seemingly inevitable defeat.

    Top would be the 1-0 against Portsmouth, the David Kelly goal but maybe that's just the memory of the absolutely apocalyptic goal celebrations and I'm forgetting how much we might have worried about an equaliser? The Shearer 4-3 against Leicester was pretty special, as was injury time against Norwich in the Chimpo when we were 3-2 down.

    Not going to mention any more...so add yours.

    Our comeback against Arsenal and the equaliser that brought the ruckus. Amazing! RIP Tiote.

    Aye, Hughie...if Nolan had hit that knock back from Ranger* slightly better it would have been 5-4

    Ranger is a nasty piece of business. Always was.

    I think the Arsenal game for me, although doesn't quite fit the criteria of last few minutes.

    For that has to be Norwich.

    Although (and this is mainly because i remember from the chron article last year - funny what sticks in the brain) the Bellamy goal against Feyenoord to win 3-2 was a good un.

    This is right up there for me. Shivers down the spine job.
