Sheffield United in 93. Don't think it was the first game my old man took me too but it's the first game I properly remember being at and taking it all in. I even remember being at my nans absolutely buzzing waiting for my dad's car to pull up outside her house. The walk down to the ground, the atmosphere from getting out of the car to getting back to the car after the game, seeing the players and even that smokey smell on the concourse before the game. If they bottled and sold that smell I'd have it on subscription. It was all heaven.
Keano's second goal is burnt into my memory, don't remember his first though for some reason. |

ECF with the old fella. Unforgettable.
Sat on the Wembley steps before the game, still treasure his comments as a group of well dressed Portuguese guys ambled by. “D’ye smell that? They wear perfume, these foreign blokes y’know “. Instantly realised why a bottle of Old Spice had been sat in the bathroom cabinet for over 10+ years. Then there was the match, the occasion. Ghosts laid. |

He bought a Maroon Sierra with the money. If Qatar win the bid then I think he should take some of the blame. |

Was always fascinated by the mile long queue of buses along Ordsall Lane waiting after the game. |

Game I was at would deffo be the Arsenal game that Quayders perfectly described. Incredible day, from beginning to end.
Game I wasn’t at would be the cup winners cup final. Magical. I remember taping it to watch again afterwards and must have worn the tape out I replayed it that much. |

Started to believe the title was close after that. Went over with our kid but only he managed to get a ticket. Brilliant couple of days though |

Rotherham 91.
First time I'd ever been out of the country. Did a 3 day trip from old Trafford, me dad and his mates, me uncle and his mates, me, our kid and my cousin making up the younger element (Ages 11, 9 and 8) The singing on the coach, the ferry over, seeing my dad bladdered for the first time, the hotel/hostel, what's that smell dad? Look at them women in the window dad! the rain and Sparky's second goal, always look on the bright side of life are all vividly etched into my brain. United. |
