Not necessarily 100% on topic re all comebacks but stats for The Amex show that we have scored a goal in the last 10 mins and then another in added on time, 5 times in the 329 Amex games (twice v West Ham). 3 of them comeback wins, 1 draw to win, and the other consolidated the lead already held.

06/08/11 v Doncaster Rovers (W 2-1 Champ.) - comeback win (83 & 90+8 mins)
26/10/19 v Everton (W 3-2 Prem.) - comeback win (80 pen & 90+4 o.g. mins)
22/05/22 v West Ham (W 3-1 Prem.) - draw to win (80 & 90+2 mins)
12/08/23 v Luton Town (W 4-1 Prem.) - consolidated the win from leading 2-1 (85 & 90+5 mins)
26/04/25 v West Ham (W 3-2Prem.) - comeback win (89 & 90+2 mins)

On top of these late late shows there have been 9 instances of us scoring 2 or more in the final 15 mins of games (75-90 only and not including added on time) 2 comeback wins, 3 draws to wins, 3 consolidating an already held lead and 1 defeat.

02/03/13 v Huddersfield (W 4-1 Champ.) - draw to win (76, 78 and pen on 81st min and the only time we've done either scenario in front of the South Stand)
11/03/14 v QPR (W 2-0 Champ.) - draw to win (77 & 86 mins)
12/08/14 v Cheltenham (W 2-0 Lge Cup) - draw to win (79 & 90 mins)
05/12/15 v Charlton (W 3-2 Champ.) - comeback win (83 & 85 mins)
15/04/16 v Fulham (W 5-0 Champ.) - consolidated the win from leading 3-0 (79 & 87 mins)
19/03/23 v Grimsby (W 5-0 FA Cup QF) - consolidated the win from leading 3-0 (82 & 90 mins)
24/08/24 v Crawley (W 4-0 Lge Cup) - consolidated the win from leading 3-0 (84 & 86 mins)
27/08/24 v Liverpool (L 2-3 Lge Cup) - trying to comeback from 0-2 and 1-3 (81 & 90 mins)
09/11/24 v Manchester City (W 2-1 Prem.) - comeback win (78 & 83 mins)

So statistically if we score twice after the 75th minute we go onto win the game 93% of the time. 13 wins and 1 defeat. I think we'd take that

I live way oop north so don’t get to many home games probably about 20 in total but many more aways. Ironically tho of the first set of five listed I was at 1, 2 and 5 in that list plus the St Patrick’s day massacre, Wigan, WBA first prem game and AEK just to address the imbalance! Stats of me seeing drama are quite high!

We weren't losing, but I remember floating out of the Amex, whilst laughing like drains after this one:

Championship: Brighton 2-1 Sheffield Wednesday as it happened

Three goals, three red cards and Brighton top of the Championship by beating Sheffield Wednesday - relive the action as it happened.

www.bbc.co.uk

1-1 on 64 minutes. Penalty and Murray sent off. Stockdale saves the penalty and the rebound. Knocky gets the winner late on, leaving them just enough time to implode and get two of their own sent off. Through the laughter we were trying to explain to the kids how rare what they'd just seen was.

Oh, this is heaven. I need a moment.

I seem to recall us beating Tottenham Hotspur in with two very late goals in a match in 1983. Didn't help our cause though.

My noodles are telling me there are a few more. Didn't we beat Chesterfield really late in a match just before Christmas in 1976, to go top ?

 

[Eeyore]

1985, 2-0 down until the 75th minute and 3 goals in the last 5 minutes. I got BATTERED outside afterwards too which is APPROPRIATE seeing as it was Grimsby

Good fish and chips in Grimsby. I was there on a cold night in March 1991. 1-0 win. Coach broke down on the way home.

 

[dazzer6666]

Birmingham (A) in the promotion season was 82 (Knockaert) and Murray (90+5) to go 2-1.

Still one of my favourite games.

Millwall away in the FA Cup was pretty late .
