1980/81. Superb game an Barry Silkman was a genius. Still one of favourite games ever.
Especially as I think the home game before was one of the worst, a 0-1 home defeat by Wrexham. Soon followed by a godawful 0-0 draw on a bollick freezing day at home to Shrewsbury.
That Luton game was magnificent. And I was on the Loft with the Luton fans when we changed ends that season. Hated the West terrace. Stood there once against Bolton when Langley scored after ten seconds. Hated it. Wrong end and too small.

West Ham 2 QPR 3. 1973/74 If memory serves, our first ever away win in the top division, our first win of the season and the first season ever we remained in the top division.
We hammered them 0-0 at home a week before but went there and played them off Upton Park. Ron Abbott of all people won us the game. Those were the days when you could sit in the home section, happy days.

Was at all of these, all great games for different reasons. The Ferdinand double as an unknown v Chelsea sticks in the mind. He'd been at the club a while without making any first team impact and then, against the most hated rivals, they couldn't live with him. A sign of what was to come. The days of the Chelsea fans' mass exodus when they knew they were beaten at LR, great times.
Parker's only goal was a fantastic moment of course. Luton fans were mocking Tony Roberts early on but were silenced.
Second half of that Spurs game was sublime (were were awful first half), best I ever saw us play live. We murdered them, and they weren't a bad side. Could have been double figures. As an added bonus, I went with a Spurs mate and we'd agreed that the loser would have to buy the beers all night afterwards, hugely enjoyable.
Paid a tout to get into the Liverpool game, another great match.
The OP mentioned Barry Silkman. He's on facebook and an absolute loony. Nasty piece of work too.

I'm with Steve with the 3-2 win at West Ham in 1973 even though I was told I had 30 seconds to get out of the ground at the end!
Two other ganes that stand out for me are;-
'69/70 Charlton 2 Rangers 3 - FA Cup 4th round & we are being battered & losing 2-0. Rodney then gave his best (IMO) performance for us 7 the whole of the Valley joined in the Rod Nee chant.
'75/76 Tottenham 0 Rangers 3 - We were magnificent! Gerry Francis at his finest with Don Givens not far behind.

QPR 4 Leeds 1 in the last season before football officially existed. We absolutely hammered the eventual champions. I was a pitch side steward at the loft end that night. I thought Clive Wilson’s penalty was going to hit me, so I cowered.

What a ball from Super Ray! That’s on another level.
Did I ever mention that I was in Minder?

A couple of Spurs home games come to mind. The 2-2 on the plastic in the mid 80’s and a brilliant 0-0, the season after Italia 90 (I think ...) Gascoigne & Lineker playing for them, Roy Wegerle outshone Fatty and I don’t recall the mighty Paul Parker giving Big Ears a sniff of the goal. End to end stuff. Also, of all things, Tony Roberts had a blinder.

Some great choices there thanks for jogging my memory. I was at the 3-2 win at Charlton but I was only 7 and remember nothing other than coming back from two nil. Shame no cameras at all games in those days.

QPR 3-2 Leicester, in 2004 after being 2 down. And the same result again against the same team in 2014 when I think that between the two teams there was 49 attempts at goal according to the BBC
