Yeah, that would be #2. The extra tension in the play-off game just puts it ahead for me.Quote:

As a derry supporter 3 matches spring to mind:
9 -1 at home to Galway , 7-2 away to Harps :D , but the cup replay at Dalymount beating Bohs 3-1 coming from behind and Bohs missing a peno to go 2 up was the best for me (i think it was the TREBLE year 89).
Jason Byrne got both goals no?Quote:

The Rovers 4-2 game was something else too, they had beaten us 2-0 in Tolka not long before and at half time are 2-0 up again, magic stuff.
6-4 with Bohs wasn't bad either, 96 cup final replay most fans would have up there but definitely the Split game for me.
Coming from 2-0 down to beat rovers in the cup.
Home and Away to NEC for the atmosphere and the scalp.
The recent 2-0 in tolka was great too, have come away from there depressed far too often.
Loads of League games stand out, 3-2 v bohs at Milltown Jan 87 was special but beating them 1-0 in Dalyer on the night they were celebrating their big anniversary was a nice one too! :p
2-1 away to Odra was my first away win in europe & will always be special!
The trio of 2-1's v pats at Richmond a couple of seasons or so back with late winners in them all, robbos one was the best though for celebrating, we went ballistic!! great night indeed!! :)
Koh
Apart from the cup wins,
Cobh 0-2 Ltfc,600 town fans in cobh biggest ever away support,the pitch invasion at the end and celebrating with the player
Harps 3-2 Ltfc(ag 3-3) win 5-4 on penos.My all time favourite town match.The first leg in flancare was very dull and it looked like the secong leg was going to be a non event.First half was poor and when lavine scored that stunner at the start of the first half it looked like it was all over but were we wrong.McHugh was amazing that day and looking back harps deserved to win but that made it all the more sweeter.Remember at 3-2 in extra time just sitting on the terraces with my head in my hands before maccers peno.People had to leave for the penaltys because they couldnt take it.
Pats 0-2 Longford 2003,after losing 2-0 to ucd in flancare it looked like we were going down.500 town fans there and the atmosphere was amazing.Those were the days when the players played with their hearts on their sleeves.It was the first time we had scored 2 all season.
Longford 2-0 Bohs,the night after kenny left for bohs.
Dorgheda 0-5 Longford,our biggest ever win in the league and I was one of the few who witnessed it.
Bohs 1-1 Longford,I know its not a win but it was the game that gave shels the title and i'll never forget the reaction of the bohs fans afterwards.
Longofrd 3-2 Bray,2-0 down at half time,a neutral i had with me tried to convince me to go home,lavine got 2 and stuie holt scored from a corner
Remember that one alright, Section O with their JUDAS signs :DQuote:

My favorite 2 Shels wins are not cup finals or European games but the two away wins against Cork last season :D Happy days
Derry 1 Rovers 0 - Cup Final win with Liam (God) scoring
Derry 2 Harps 1 - God's last match, Noel King and his "destiny' tripe, celebrating among harps players and infront of their fans and best of all relegated them to where they belong!
