If you could go back and re watch any LEAGUE game in our history.What game would you pick?

The one that instantly popped into my head was Liverpool 3-3. I was 7/8 years old completely hooked as a second season ticket holder and could feel the buzz around the place with all these superstars, although I didn't fully understand the relevance at the time I still knew something big was happening.

After spending a little time thinking about it, i'd like to go to any Ayresome Park game. I only ever went to Pears testimonial but don't have any real memories of it. I do strangely enough have a very vivid memory of going to get the Blue/Black Cellnet away kit from the Ayresome Park shop before The Riverside was complete though, weird what you remember isn't it.
 
There are loads that I would go back to see but I’ll give a special mention to Boro 4-1 Man United.

Gaizka was unplayable.

There's other games that I've enjoyed more but I don't think the club have been at many loftier positions than this. We absolutely took United apart and it didn't even feel that surprising at the time. A Saturday evening game under the lights with some world class players playing for us. I don't think we'll see those times ever again.
 
Would we be watching the game already knowing the result? Or would we be watching it 'fresh' again?
It would be interesting sitting in the crowd at the Steau / Basel games knowing what was going to happen, but you would probably lose the sheer joy of the unexpected.
Whereas the Oxford '98, or Brighton '17 promotion games it would be nice to enjoy the atmosphere without the anxiety.
