I imagine the 5-0 in 1997-98 would rank the top choice for most but mine was the Mike Pollitt game in 2006/7 I think, he only played that one game for us but had a blinder!

The 2-0 at their place in 92 was good. Some sore heads the next morning.
Also, a shout out to the 1-0 win in the Simod Cup around this time of year in 88. Probably not a great game if I was to watch a full rerun but at the time, they were a division above and finishing top 5 with it.
The 3-1 in 93 was loud. Bloody loud. Possibly the loudest I've ever heard PR be.
Was that also the match where Matthew Bates put someone through the hoardings? And a career ending injury to a Norwich player from blocking a free kick?

Another vote for the 2-0 win at Carrow Road in December 1992.
I know many will vote for the 5-0 in 1998, but at the time I was a steward* at PR, and while I usually got to watch the vast majority of games, for that one I was at the front of the North Stand trying to stop our fans running on the pitch every time we scored!
* When I left uni in 1996, I couldn’t afford a ST, so me and a mate figured that being a steward would get us to see games. Mate backed out, but I went through with it and did it for around three years until I had a job which paid enough to allow me to have a ST again.

The Matthew Bates tackle on Chadwick was 2006. Alex Notman ended his career by blocking a Venus free kick in 2002.

The 5-0 was great but the own goal 2-1 takes some beating.
Which one?
I reckon the Friday night match where Tarrico and Mason scored is probably mine. Honourable mentions to the 3-1 win in April 93, Jim winning his first derby as manager in Nov 2009 as well.
April 78’, still under a slight threat of relegation, pre cup semi final, 4-0 win, settled the nerves. I was 12, great memories of watching the North Stand from the front of The West stand. A young Swallow hurling a burning Norwich scarf back into their lot from those low segregation barriers! ‘You’ll never get to Wembley, you’ll never get to Wembley’ they chanted😀

The Texaco Cup final in 1973 - great memories. The original 5-0 in 1977 and the 1-0 win at carrot road later that season to go top of the league! We were in the Barclays with a six foot fence each side of a no-mans-land empty section, I remember jumping over the fence along with all the other Town fans, don't think I could do that now but it was fun at the time!

This was my favourite. Quite a night !
This was mine too. We were in with the Norwich at the ‘River’ end and kept quiet for the first. When Thompson’s went in it was too much. We went nuts and so did loads of other Town supporters who’d wheedled their way in and had also kept a lid on it until then. Great night.
Gunn’s air kick was the funniest thing I’ve seen at a football match and he did it in front of me. Megson’s last minute header wasn’t bad either!
