Probably a bit early for this, but for me it was the Man U game. Like Arsenal, they turned up expecting to field the ball boys and get a win but we were all together brilliant from back to front. Knocky, the prodigal son returns to bamboozle, flicking it about like it was tied to his laces, Izzzy running them ragged on the left and no mercy through the middle with Stevens, Propper and Gross. I could go on but everyone was magnificent, this is what we know we can do when we get our shite together, and what a time to do it!
I'll reserve my final judgment until after the last game, and hope I have cause to re-think my choice.

I really don't think they turned up expecting a win given that we'd already given them two decent games this season.

The home game against West Ham. We took the lead they drew back just before half time and we then really went for it 2nd half against an in-form side and it seemed to start a snowball of great displays and results. Notable mention also for the Swansea game which really helped us to establish a lead over the bottom 3

The West Brom home game gave the players the confidence and self belief i think they probably needed after a really shaky start , when gross somehow managed to squeeze our first ever Premier league goal the players and the whole of sussex gave a huge sigh of relief .

I agree with all of that. West Brom was unexpected and when I first thought - We can actually genuinely compete and stay in this division. We did.

I think Arsenal for me... The first win against a top six side proved we could mix it with those if we were on top of our game.

Stoppage time against Arsenal genuinely nearly killed me through nerves and I did think I may start to wretch which isn't polite anywhere let alone the West Upper. West Brom, Swansea, West Ham were lovely in comparison.

Of the ones I went to, Crystal palace in the FA Cup was the most fun, but overall, having watched most of our games, Arsenal at home.

As a game, irrespective of the result, Bournemouth at home and Stoke away were good fun

1) Man Utd home, doesn't get much better than that.
2) West Brom home for allaying any fears we might not be up to this level.
3) West Ham home, for manner of goals scored, even theirs was good.

Honourable mentions to Arsenal game but the "we're safe" feel after the game always made me nervous, and West Ham away - what a night that was spoilt only by the fact it was in Stratford.

West Ham away for me - we played well for 90 mins and showed what we can do when you take the game to the opposition and we took them apart. This was capped off with an unbelievable atmosphere in the Albion end the whole game - I nearly lost my voice singing my heart out for the lads !

United on Friday for me, we really were superb, we did it with flair too, not just doing a job.

The first half against Arsenal - I thought this was the best we have played. Absolutely took them apart.

This. We should have gone in at half-time 5-0.

West Ham home and away are special, as clear leads meant they could both be lapped up and savoured.
