For me it's got to be:
Charlton vs Crystal Palace - December 2004
Charlton supporters sang the roof off the stadium for 90 minutes. Johnson missed a penalty for Palace (Deano!!!) after which Dennis Rommedahl scored for the Addicks in the 93 minute (just a microsecond before the final whistle was blown). The sight of thousands of silent open-mouthed motionless Palace supporters was just unforgetable.

For me, recently it is Carlisle this season. Loads of goals, entertaining, frustrating and then ecstacy. All that way for a 93rd min winner- went beserk. Loved it!
Edit: Forgot about Arsenal 4-2 at Higbury, that was by far the best. Sat in the North Bank stone silent but what a day. Still can picture Euell going through to make it 4.
Ever? Man U away in 1986. Was like winning the Cup Final.
Coventry 3-2
Millwall 2-0 in the snow
2-0 down to premiership covenrty and then goals from Robinson and Newton level it before half time and then Hunt scored in the last couple of minutes. Was only 11 at the time but can rememeber them sining to us "You're worse than Aston Villa" after they went 2-0 up, only for us to sing it 10 times louder after Hunts goal. still makes me smile today
along with the 1987 play-off at st andrews.
Otherwise it has to Wimbledon in the league cup away at Selhurst, think it was 96?
Leeds play-off final was the most tense. (followed by the battle of Stamford Bridge)
Coventry in the cup, when we came back from 2 down to win, was great fun.
Arsenal 2-4 - unforgettable.
Remember that one. I was in The Shed, so made for an interesting experience ;-)
What a game, this is right up there for me too. I was 12 and I always remember being allowed to have a pound bet, which I put on cafc to win 3-2, cant remember how much I won but I do remember being far to interested in the football to care
4-2 at Highbury
Knocking Chelsea out on pens in the cup
5-1 at Peterboro this season
Atmosphere/Day out wise
Old Trafford in the cup 94?
Orient last season
The wins at Palace in 04 and 07 can be in both! Villa 99 in both as well!
Haven't counted Wembley obviously
At Highbury...
Recently... Orient away
Only marred by the fact that I had a fiver on a double of 2-2 with Rufus as first scorer which would have given me a couple of grand - the one that got away.
Arsenal 01
Liverpool 04
Chelsea in the Carling cup 05
Villa 99
Carlisle this season
2-0 down to premiership covenrty and then goals from Robinson and Newton level it before half time and then Hunt scored in the last couple of minutes.

Was at that game, first big away game for my boys as well, at 2-0 down my then 7 year old through the tears said " were going to lose Daddy" i said no son we will win 3-2.
Huge smiles on thier faces at the end of the game, Cov fans were vile swearing and shouting at 7 year olds!!!
Chelsea 0-1
Blackburn 4-1
Very distant past my first away Vs The Nigels in 1968-69 Season FA Cup replay.....wonderful night, followed by Arsenal at Highbury, where my feet literally didnt touch the ground....still have both programs....will probably go to the grave with me.
I agree.
A brace apiece from Ray Treacy & Mike Kenning, had not won away for well over a season (35 games) and a result which effectively staved of relegation to the divition we find ouselves in now for at least another season.
5 1 to the londoners
4th - Both Carlisle games where we won promotion
3rd - Beating The Arse 4-2 at Highbury
2nd - Battle of the Bridge
1st - Play off final v Leeds. Far and away the best / most relieved / elated feeling I've ever had.
Mind you I've seen us win at Chelsea, Man U and Liverpool - and they were special too.
