Your Top 10 Sporting Moments

[60YearsAPie]

After the amazing England v New Zealand game, I got to thinking which sporting moments, either watched in person, on TV or listened to on the radio, would I include in my personal Top 10?

It turned out to be much more difficult than I’d anticipated to narrow it down to ten. Maybe I should have made it Top 50, but here’s mine.

1966 World Cup Final – England 4 West Germany 2 (TV)
1975 League Cup – Leeds 0 Notts County 1 (In person)
1977 Centenary Test, MCG – Derek Randall’s 174 (Radio)
1981 Promotion to Div.1 – Chelsea 0 Notts County 2 (In person)
1990 Play-Off Final, Wembley – Notts County 2 Tranmere 0 (In person)
1991 Play-Off Final, Wembley – Notts County 3 Brighton 1 (In person)
1996 European Championship – England 4 Holland 1 (TV)
2001 World Cup Qualifier – Germany 1 England 5 (TV)
2015 Ashes, Trent Bridge – Stuart Broad’s 8 for 15 (In person)
2019 ICC World Cup Final – England v New Zealand (TV)

Mine all have to be stuff I've seen in person watching the ***y stylish Pies:
1985 FA Cup fixture against Spurs: 1-1 robbed of a perfectly good winner by David Hunt, great game though.
1985 - league game against Bury 2-2 draw, great entertainment, Mick Waite a mile offside for our equaliser, but the goal stood.
1986 5-0 home win against Rotherham, Charlie broke out from a Rotherham corner and chipped the keeper for the 5th goal absolute stunner.
1991 FA Cup v Man City - 1-0 Gary Lund, amazing Notts performance.
1991 Play-Off Final, Wembley – Notts County 3 Brighton 1
1993 final home game of the season 7th May v Sunderland 3-1 to Notts guaranteeing we stayed up. Peach of a goal from Drapes. All other results went Sunderland's way, meaning that they stayed up too.
1994 League Cup against Spurs 3-0 to Notts - stunning performance from the whole team
1994 at home to Florest 2-1 to Sir Charlie Palmer, great header
2009 first game of the season against Bradford 5-0 Hughes hat trick - first sign of what was to come on the pitch that season.
2010 FA Cup v Man City 1-1 great game
2011 league cup away to Rushcliffe Rovers, 3-3 after extra time, lost on penalties, but a great performance by both teams.
