Sorry to be critical - this thread was for 'moments'. Not results. The two are very different.

For me, top three:
- Puncheon scoring in the Cup final
- Zaha second goal vs Brighton in playoffs
- Zaha goal away to Peterborough in the promotion season. Still celebrating the equaliser. It was bedlam. Holloway's first game.

Worthy of a mention, Dwight Gayle equaliser against Liverpool

Agree with pool semi 4 3
& Brighton play off but showing my age would add beating Man U 5 0 in seventies

There have been quite a few but top three probably.

FA cup final v United 3-3
v Liverpool 4-3 semi final.
v Burnley 2-0 '79

I must acknowledge,
v West ham play off 1-0
v Sheff Utd play off 1-0
v Blackburn play off 3-0
v Orient(away) '79
Most of 1990/91 season especially Man Utd 3-0

Was at every one of those games and would probably agree about the top 3, although the 4-3 semi would be my number 1.

As this is moments and not games, I’ll go for.......

Steve Lovell’s late winner v Wrexham In 1981(we hadn’t won away for 18 months)

Brighty’s equaliser v Liverpool in the 90 semi(because we suddenly realised we could actually win it)

Going 1-0 up in the 1990 cup final( because it really started sinking in we could win the fa cup back when it meant something, at the old proper Wembley as well)

My three are:

Beating Accrington Stanley 9-1 at Selhurst Park when I was 5 years old. My first game. My dad took me.

Being there with over 49,000 others when we beat Burnley to win promotion in 1979(?) Walsh scored didn't he?

Grabbing my girlfriend and dragging her to the other end of the stadium to avoid getting attacked by 5,000 insane, costumed Birmingham City fans in 1989

Walsh and Swindlehurst scored against Burnley , and it was 51,000!!

Difficult to narrow it down to three (even though its Palace!), but limiting it to matches I actually attended, I would say:

1. Beating Fulham 3-2 in 1969 to gain our first ever promotion to the top division.

2. The 3-3 Liverpool game in 2014 simply for the euphoria at coming back from 0-3 down with only 12 minutes left, and pretty well stuffing their title hopes.

3. The 1979 Burnley promotion winning game.

And in reserve - the 5-0 tanning of Man Utd in 1972

Jeff Bourne, 4th goal away at Wrexham in 1977...a great night and incredible result that often gets forgoten

If it's moments there are loads over the years, but at a push;

1) Being carried 20 yards by the crowd under the part built Arthur when we went 3-2 up after being 2-0 down to Fulham in '69.
2) John Pemberton starting his run and crossing for the first equaliser against the Scousers in '90.
3) The ball hitting the back of the net with time running out when relegation seemed certain at Stockport.
