A late, late winner that floats under the radar after the Bristol City and Southampton shenanigans - big win!
We were truly spoilt last season.
Ipswich Town 4-3 Rotherham United - Match Report20th Feb 2024 22:11 Omari Hutchinson netted a dramatic winner five minutes into injury time a minute after Rotherham had levelled as Town came from behind to beat the bottom-of-the-table Millers 4-3 to climb to third in the Championship. Wes Burns scored twice and Kieffer Moore once as the Blues came from a goal down, scored by Tom Eaves in the second minutes, to give Town a 3-1 half-time lead but the South Yorkshiremen pulled one back via Hakeem Odoffin on the hour, then, with Town having been a shadow of their usual selves, Cafu netted a controversial penalty in the 94th minute before Hutchinson’s heroics a minute later won what could prove three vital points for the Blues.95

I think the Port Vale one the year before was slightly more stressful for me. Broady’s penalty was huge.
This was one of my favourite ever memories of following Ipswich Town. The reason the league one promotion was so special was because we were so far behind after the Bristol Rovers game and after that, they were all must win games. ‘Every game’s a cup final.’ Games against Wycombe, Derby, Peterborough and Barnsley don’t feel too difficult now but at the time they were the top teams in a league we had been in for four years, so to totally cast them aside felt so good. And this one against Port Vale was the only one in the run in that we almost slipped up on, so the comeback felt so good. I have never felt more nervous watching a penalty. There is a picture of this game at Portman Road saying ‘Ice in his veins.’
They'd all laugh at me if they knew what I was trying to do. To create a new strain of super-wine in half-an-hour with a fraction of nature's resources and a FOOL for an assistant. 'Bernard Black, he's mad,' they'd say, 'he's insane, he's dangerous.' Well I'll show them! I'll show them all!

Really agree with this. It's a game that stick out to me for those reasons. One of the easiest games in the run, and we were coming up short. Reminds me of when we'd seemingly always draw with Bolton or lose to Crewe under Burley. Ice indeed!

This is even better (town in 5) from 3.26 onwards. Wolf is possessed:
This was the game where I thought we’d do it. Broady oh Broady, my god he was cool. A few days after the romp against Charlton, this was supposed to be the same against managerless PV. Crazee getting throttled by Burns! It felt like a family, The Club as one.
