In response to the "rock bottom" thread that is popular today. Here is its antithesis.
For Premier League games my top five are:
#5: Everton 3-1 Spurs, 9th Apr 04
I knew exactly how important the game was, and having been a bag of nerves all day, the performance and the result was like a shot of heroin. I knew we had attained survival that night.
#4: Norwich 2-3 Everton, 23rd Oct 04
The game that took us to 2nd place with just over a quarter of the season gone. I was at a wedding that day and preoccupied with the score. I was only interested in getting the score on my WAP enabled phone (Oh yeah, WAP enabled!), the score NOR 2 EVE 3 (FT) flashed up at the precise moment the vicar asked if there was any reason they should not be married.
I let out a stifled "yes", which luckily the vicar nor the couple did not hear, but several people around my pew did, and gave me a look that could curdle milk. Later on, at the reception in the boat museum at Camden Lock I stuffed my face with the best wedding spread imaginable. Made the Red Hot Buffet at Liverpool One look like a soup kitchen....
Great day.
#3: Everton 1-0 Liverpool, 11th Dec 04
First derby win since getting pubes, 12 pts above the RS, we looked unstoppable.
#2: Everton 2-0 Liverpool, 17th Oct 10
I remember thinking we'd just relegated the RS - not unreasonable given their form and a clueless manager. It is possibly the only time in living memory my kopite mates have held their hands up and admitted that the Redshyt, REALLY are shyt!
#1: Everton 3-0 Liverpool, 9th Sep 06
Top of the league, sun shining, derby win. Can we have something like that again please?
