I didn't know what real suffering was till Dortmund turned up at OT and dumped United out of Europe. It never actually occurred to me in the build up that they might win

A young Watcher left OT in tears that night

First game, Charity Shield 67
Charlton's last home game 73, on the pitch
City 74, on the pitch

Boro 92, Ferguson's Red and White Army

Who the £#%&! is Mr Mystery?

Scholes v Barca tense as £#%&! but loved every minute

Rio scoring against the dippers late on not sure which year, mate who doesnt like football came with us, when Rio scored he got nudged out onto steps fell over and barrel rolled from top to bottom.

Fat Ronaldo ruining us, another mate I was with sulked and £#%&!ed off after an hour never let him live that one down.

Macheda

8-2 or 7-1 one of them

Ipswich game I missed, went to watch Morecambe v Carlisle instead my dad talke me into selling my ticket to some other lad who'd been mithering to go for his first game. Said it would be a shit game anyway

Roma match I was inthe middle of Mexico,found a bar with it on, couldn't £#%&!ing believe it. The barman kept coming in to check the score, had a good craic with him. Well as good as you can in broken Spanish

That was horrible. Apart from the 45 seconds after Scholes scored, the only bit I enjoyed was the full time whistle. Disgusting. The most stressful match I can ever remember. I think I spent the last ten minutes with my head in my hands. Was shattered at full time

The penalty shoot out in Moscow was a walk in the park in comparison.

5-2 vs palace. A pa announcement went up for a mr mistry to contact the nearest steward. Cue 'There's only one Mr Mistry' and numerous others out of the song book.

Great thread.

Barca 84.

Liverpool 3-1. 1/1/89. Never really been a goon it like since, 3 goals in 7 minutes...was very nearly sick.

Blackburn 93. At last.

Liverpool 2-1 FA Cup 99.

2-0 vs Arse Invincibles. As previously stated, best modern day atmosphere at OT. Loudest OT has been in a long, long time. (Barca 08 included).

first game 91 v chelsea (donaghy OG and Hughes into stretford end)

"ostend coppers went round the bend" in north stand v celtic (mikey red )

scholes v panathinaikos

scholes v barca

ronaldo v portsmouth

6-1 v Arsenal

smashing Roma on and off the field

Don't remember that. Must have been there, hadn't sacked the ST off by then. Probably drunk, or asleep

In no particular order...

5-0 in the derby
2-1 vs. Arsenal in 2008
0-0 v Everton. Sir Matt's game
2-1 v Boro, Rumbelows Cup Semi 1992(?)
Not sure it counts, but, Palace (a) in '93. Watched it on the screens in OT

Can't remember tbh just remember that we should've scored about 10 but Southall had a blinder

Yep, a header.

Top shout from dunk for the Palace away match.

Froggle's farewell would have to be up there tbh. It really was something else.

Didn't Villa kick off before us, and were already losing before United's game started? They wouldn't let that happen now

Same here. Cried like a baby whilst ripping the champions league banners that covered the advertising up, White and black that one, nicked a silver and black one a few seasons later. Gotta be worth a pound or two.

Talking of souvenirs, did anyone else get the evening news that was printed in Barcelona? Looked on eBay and asked everyone I know who was there too and everyone looks at me like I am simple. All in boxes and folders at my Mam's. Glad I took a rucksack. Got everything from that day including Nutella ads that were on the seats and a couple of the Amstel hats.


That's the one.

Not got the paper but Ive got every paper from the UK the next day and several Spanish editions. My mate has got one of the official plastic flag things that was hanging off the lamp posts out there, he shinned up and got one...and never got me one because I was too £#%&!ed to climb up. The @#%&!.
