The two that spring to mind are

Osborne One Nil

Reuser Premiership


To which I would add Brenner's after Hirst's goal at Barnsley

"what strength, what persistance, what belief, what a finish


Anyone care to add anymore?

Brian Moore’s equivalent for Osborne was “it’s got to be it, it is it”.

Gerry Harrison for the Bryan Gunn air kick was “oh what an error, how did that happen ?”.

...and this time he finds David Geddis. He's got Sammy Nelson in front of him. He goes past Nelson. He lay it square. [voice and crowd noise rises]. Willie Young's there. Osborne's there [now shouting] IT'S THERE. ROGER OSBORNE HAS DONE IT FOR IPSWICH TOWN. AND THEY HAVE SCORED 1-0.

"Healy stomps it forward, Priskin's onside, can he get away, he's inside the area, just the keeper to beat... And he's done it! Tamas Priskin lifts the roof off Portman Road! The ball is in the back of Szczesny's net! Get this for a scoreline: Ipswich Town ONE, Arsenal NIL!"

From the ‘We won the Cup’ LP, ‘Geddis, edge of the b’, edge of the box, goes inside , beats 2 men…and this must be a goal….IT’S A GOAL BY IPSWICH, Roger Osborne is the scorer! Pete Barroclough I think?
Gerry Harrison, V WBA 7-0, ‘Beatties coming forward to take charge. OH I SAY!’
And who can forget his ‘What a cracker!’, think it was for Mariner V Forest 1980?

Here's another from the same match (also Peter Jones):

"You may not hear the referee's whistle in the next few moments. But you will hear a roar that can be heard all over East Anglia. You just wait for it.

Cooper. Bowls the ball to Mills.

[Louder] Listen. That's it. That's the Ipswich sign!

[Massive noise for what seemed like hours (okay, slightly exaggerated). Noise dies down and PJ in normal voice again]

That was as big and as loud a roar that I have heard at the end of any Cup Final."

I've always particularly liked the reference to Easter Anglia and the image that those in Norfolk would also have had to endure our celebrations.

Memories of a 10 year old that are still crystal clear today. I'm so pleased that the yoof are currently witnessing similar scenes, after too many barren years. Memories that will last a lifetime.
