    A few people have mentioned Barry Robson's challenge on Dailly.

    In the same game, JVOH chased back after Nacho Novo and cut the wee * in half. I was screaming for Big Jan to do him, and he duly obliged.

    Barry robsons crunching tackle on christian daily in the OF derby in 08, kicked of an unlikely comeback to win the league i thought.

    Paul Hartley scoring against Motherwell at Celtic Park a few years ago and he went mental ( Well from what I remember anyway ). Not saying that game wasn't important but you don't see players celebrating that much on a Saturday afternoon home game against Motherwell. Always liked him.

    Ki's celebration against Motherwell in the Cup Final. Felt a great deal of admiration for him after that. He topped off a great season with a Cup Final goal and celebrated it by showing his admiration for Lennon dealing with his troubles.

    Not necessarily an "on the pitch" moment but I've always appreciated that Samaras is one of the few players who is not a money grabber, doesn't let the fans abuse drive him off and is determined to succeed with us.

    Boruc's save against Hamilton Accies a few years ago. We were 4 - 0 up or something and conceeded a late penalty. Boruc then saved the penalty and the rebound :icon_mrgreen:

    Also appreciated how Scott McDonald used to hold up the ball quite well and in one occasion used that to set up Sheridan to score against Kilmarnock. And how he celebrated when we won 3 in a row. Don't care what people think of him but he was an exceptional player for us and I loved seeing him play for us, even through all his moaning and on the occasion diving. Felt down when Mowbray sold him and he had every right to have a few digs

    When Tommy Johnson scored against St Mirren to seal the league at the treble season, he took a terrible first touch but still managed to put it away, he then put his hand over his mouth as if to say "Oops" that lad was funny as * :56:

    At the end of this years Scottish Cup final when the whistle was blown, Izzy fell to his knees, bowed his head, held his hands up and looked like he was giving deep heartfelt thanks to * or something else really personal. That one act hit me more than any footballing he has done this season, a truly beautiful thing to see such passion :50:

    The hundreds of times that Naka would be hacked down because every player in the SPL couldn't handle him... he would just get back up, brush himself down, then skin the pants off them all again.. or maybe even just curl in a beauty of a free kick.

    But mainly the way he would keep getting up after every foul and hardly complained.

    Little things like Izzy in the 88th minute bursting back to his poistion, Kayals tenacity, Just watched us vs DU 3-1 game at Tanadice, Kayal does that thing he does where he wins the ball and spins, ball ends up in box, hes already there, chance gone, he sprints across and puts a crunching tackle in.

    Mark Wilson this season.

    Lennys celebrations.

    Kayal dropping to his knees when Commons scored vs St Mirren when we were struggling, peter grant esque or something.

    Izzy wearing his hondouras flag, Commons/Hoops/Mulgrew/stokes winning their first major trophy.
