I'm suprised this hasn't been done yet, although I can remember in previous incarnation if a similar thread.
Great Alty comebacks.
I'll start with the obvious Gateshead at home. Two injury time goals including a late penalty on a Tuesday night to come back from 2-0 down.
I always thought Kettering away in 2010 didn't get enough credit. Coming from behind 3 times to get an away point.
Cult, Reed em yourself

I remember coming back from 2-0 down against Northwich in the Bob Lord Trophy in the mid-90's and winning 3-2. Cracking game!
-
The first leg of the play-off semifinal against Brackley. Shame about the second leg.

One of my rare visits to ML - we have dome this twice to Gateshead in recent years, both with winning penalties.
-
March 1979: losing 4-1 at home to a superb Mossley side with about 20 minutes to go.....and then winning 5-4.
I'll let someone else recount the events of that unforgettable Monday evening, which will inevitably mention Stan Allan's pivotal contribution....
-
One of my first away matches 2 down at Boston won 3-2 Martin baker winner 89-90 wouldev been a class player but for injury
-
The famous pitch invasion of Bradford, that was when we knew we'd get in the play-offs.

Is the second one the 1st game back in the Unibond 2000/01 season? Mark Ward with a last minute penalty at Chequers End. Always remember it as until Workington last season was the last game I attended with my dad.
-
Bradford PA away. The season we went up in the playoffs. 1 down, not playing well then a val owen screamer and a late rod thornley winner for a 2-1 win. Some proper players in that team.
-
again in the seventies leek in the fa trophy 3 nil down won 4-3 their keeper in tears .Or did i dream that.

Yes this was most spectacular. I think there were only 12 minutes to go and we were 4-1 down. Stan Allan and Eamonn O'Keeffe started fighting and both were sent off. Eamonn was Mosssley's star player and went on to play for Everton and the Republic of Ireland. I think we scored 3 stoppage time including 2 identical Johnny King near post headers off corners.
Many Alty fans had cleared off to the pub at 4-1 as soon as the gates opened.
We lost the second leg 5-0!!!!
Also a 4-3 FA Cup victory against Scouseport after being 3-0 down in the late 1970's
-
Southport in 1978 ???? dont think we were three nil down but it was a very up and down scoring pattern

Jeff Johnson's last minute winner at the Golf Road End.
Joyous.
Droylsden followed.....and then our first visit to Tottenham Hotspur.

Jack.....it was a great comeback, but not from 2-0 down. Anthony Danylyk opened the scoring in the 2nd minute.
-

That was a great game.....I think that, as on Saturday, we went mad for 10-15 minutes, when all of our 3 goals were scored.
-

Superb one....a week after we lost 5-0 at Colne in the Trophy.
Agree about Martin 'Bambi' Baker as well. About a week after he broke his leg, I taxi'd him back to his home in Leeds for which I was paid £750 by the club. ::) ::) ::)
-
I went to the coln game smallest ever ground , we got showler and wigins
from that tho so apart from losiing 5 nil not bad
-
again in the seventies leek in the fa trophy 3 nil down won 4-3 their keeper in tears .Or did i dream that.
One of my favourites, even though Leek were in The Manchester League at the time.
I think that they went 3-0 up after about 55/60 minutes.
-
Southport in 1978 ???? dont think we were three nil down but it was a very up and down scoring pattern
You are correct sir...2-0 to Southport through goals from George Dewsnap (I think), we then scored 3 times before they equalised very late on (Maurice Whittle from the penalty spot?). Jeff Johnson's last gasp winner was an incredible moment.

A Stuart Terry penalty at the Golf Road End to win it, as I recall?
A wonderful evening.
I had the world's most annoying Vics supporter sitting just to my left.
He went rather quiet after our third goal.

Just Showler...Wiggins came from Telford.
Love that last bit ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Made all the sweeter by the fact that they had ripped us to shreds 3-1 at Moss Lane during the previous month and their fans were extremely confident that they would turn us over again.

Good call Jack....one of Damian Reeves best goals that night....bullet header from about 16 yards.

No need....all fuel paid for at that juncture.

Gateshead away in 1996.
2-0 down early on against our 'bogey' team.
Win 3-2 via a late Paul France header.

Martin Baker left a brown envelope in my car, which contained all the X-Rays of his broken leg. I posted them back to him the following day for a fee of £392.

Yeah, I thought that was that case. I remember the Golf Road End falling silent before he took it and the ecstatic scenes when the penalty went in. Lovely stuff! :)

Remember another 2 down 3-2 win against colwyn bay I was there but can't remember the year or much about it again I think we got are 3 goals in second half
-

I think that won 5-2 there on August Bank Holiday Saturday in 2001, after going 2-0 down.
Rod Thornley scored a hat trick & I think Ian Craney may have got one.
-
Im not sure we went 2 down in that one Brian I maybe wrong we went top on that day shame that season fell apart

Who scored uday did andy macdonald get one
-
The Leek Town 0-3 to 4-3 was the first I remember as a young supporter, the week before we played Notts County at home in the cup. Sat in the stand with my dad, later on the topsy turvy 78 game against Southport was just brilliant, 2 down at HT, clawed it back really near the end, then they scored, we equalised in added time as their fans were leaving in droves, then they scored again, they piled back in only for JJ (I think) to make it 4-3. On to Droylsden and Spurs. What days. As for Mossley, I left at 1-5 an heard the cheers all the way back to the station.

think you might be right Jimmy

I once saw jack jolly come back from the bar with a round in - it was emotional.

Not a big comeback but those two late goals at Brackley last year were very cathartic

A worldy from Craney to equalise and then spud van winner.

Didn't they miss a penalty before Jeff Johnson's winner? George Dewsnip - back from playing in the States and looked a real arrogant gig but scored a great goal and a couple against us in the league game a few weeks earlier when they ripped up apart.

Didn't Martin Baker's final appearance for Alty comprise that 9-2 annihilation of Merthyr Tydfil at Moss Lane in 1991?
A sad aside on an otherwise exhilarating afternoon.

Correct, Cult!

Cheshire CUP semi at Runcorn, 0-2 from the home leg we won in extra time 3-0, bliss with the winner from Chris Sharratt. Many other but this sticks :)
