The 1-0 at Aberdeen. Mainly because of all the things that were against us on the night, and the joy of when Tadé hit the net was absolutely overwhelming. Never celebrated like that before in my life.

Didn't get to Pittodrie, so have selected the 2-1 win at Dundee in the QF.

All 3 were superb games that had everything you could ask for in a football game. The 2-0 win against the townies was a great day, when Casa scored the 2nd it was pure pandamonium, Aberdeen away was tremendous as we pulled off what most people felt was the impossible. However I'm going to go for the 2-1 win against Dundee. Those first 10 minutes of the game were probably the best 10 minutes of my life. Just complete bedlam when Ellis scored the 2nd. I'm sure I ended up in a completely different row when celebrating Laughing

Patodrie was amazing. Everyone up there was especting a hamering bit the Rovers crowd outsang the 11000 Aberdeen fans and Tade being the goalscorer just puts the icing on the cake for me Very Happy

I would say full-time at Pittodrie.

Tadé's goal was amazing, but I think in the back of everyone's mind, there was still that little thought "We're going to get pummelled for the rest of the game."

By the time the final whistle came, not only were we through to the next round, but we'd been by far the better team, and it was a thoroughly deserved victory.

So much jumping around!

My favourite is not listed. There have been many highs, especially in the cup run, but none of them come close to Ronnie Coyle's emotional return to Starks Park. Puts football into perspective.

Aberdeen away.

Favorite moment was Williamson's goal against Aberdeen at home, just picked it out the sky.

The way we stuck into Dundee and slaughtered them after the first 9 minutes. Laurie Ellis's quick dart into position and rocket header and then his ecstatic celebrations couple with ours was a thing of beauty!

For me it's Aberdeen away. The 2-0 win at Dunfermline was better football, but the Aberdeen result, achieved with an understrength side was excellent. I never thought I would see the Rovers win at Pittodrie.

Aberdeen away. I moved to Aberdeen in 1984 but never lost my affinity for the Rovers. I have longed for a Scottish Cup tie against the Dons for years and was totally gutted when we fell short against Alloa last season. I could not believe it when we were drawn again this season.

The game at Starks we should have won but then I thought we had let our chance go when they equalised in stoppage time.

To win at Pittodrie against all the odds stacked against us was amazing and for a Fifer in exile up here I was in heaven for days. Absolutely brilliant.

Alot of my friends / work mates look out for the Rovers results and I get texts every week on the way back up the road content depending on whether we have won or lost! To fans like Dons fans the Rovers are an unfashionable team but you better believe it the respect you get for following your home town team is top drawer.

Pars victory away next in line for me but so may great memories this season - opening league game against Dundee, winning away to Ross County, winning at Partick, coming back against Airdrie in the cup with ten men, Dons in the cup, Dundee in the cup the list goes on.

However I also recall Stirling away in the first game of the season and East fife away 2-0 down at half time .... my God who'd have thought how it would have turned around!

East Fife away was a belter aswell, 2-0 down at half time only for Williamson to win it with the last kick off the ball

Tade's long awaited first goal aswell.

Aberdeen away was a brill result but for me it was the Dundee game, scoring two goals in ten minutes to silence the Dundee crowd and for Weiry to score and have his goal disallowed - followed by a second half that seemed to last forever, great day out and no voice left, memories for my son to remember Very Happy

Dundee for me too.
The scenes when Laurie's header flew in were unreal.
Folk falling over seats whilst others were jumping about 10 feet in the air. That's what it's all about!

Fantastic seeing Ronnie Coyle back at the ground too. Very Happy
