Watson scored both I seem to recall

 

87

 

John Stead. No debate from me.

 

Carbone Everton away

 

Was that the game where we missed two penalties and our relegation was confirmed?

 

Blake missed the first and Carbone the second.

 

Yes.

We played some great stuff that day, it was as if the previous six months hadn't happened.

 

Yes Hulme. we looked okay but Carbone was brilliant. against a not bad Everton side

 

I agree with the Carbone Chelsea game. I'm afraid we'll never see the likes of it again.
Few others that come to mind are Dean windass Vs bury, lee mills home to port vale, and Stuart for two seasons straight 1998 - 2000

 

Wells vs Coventry

 

Jamie Lawrence v Norwich at home March 1999

 

Blake same season, but at home to Wolves.

 

Some brilliant examples so far. Stead v Chelsea is the one that always comes to mind.

Another to throw in the mix, albeit as a substitute, is Kyel Reid against Burton in the 3-2 League Cup comeback. Nostalgia could easily be blinding me but I remember it being one of the most edge of your seat performances since Beagrie, Blake, Carbone. Wells & Darbs may have got the goals but it was Reid's impact that set us on our way to getting through as he firmly penned Burton back in some awful conditions. It was the first time I remember thinking we had something with the Reid/Meredith partnership as Meredith marauded forward and Reid was dribbling past players for fun, often while being marked by two or three opponents.

Exactly the kind of performance you watch football for and a vital footnote in the history making that followed.
