1999 World Cup 3rd/4th play off between South Africa and New Zealand at Millenium Stadium.

Don't remember it at all but Wiki says there was only one try so couldn't have been too exciting.

However, in the hours leading up to it, I was walking round Cardiff with my pa and we noticed a crowd growing down a side street. We joined them to see the NZ team walking out of their hotel and onto their team us.

As you will no doubt already know, Jonah Lomu is bloody hench.

A former work colleague was at the 1966 world cup final.

I went to the opening game of Euro 1996 at Wembley. England v. Switzerland. 1-1, not a great game.

Oh, and the FA cup final 1975, of course.

I was at Wembley in 1966.

I had a season ticket for all Englands matches. I remember almost nothing about it but I know it can't have been expensive or difficult to obtain.

My parents weren't thrilled because it coincided with my O Levels the results of which were unimpressive.

The only final I have ever attended was the Europa League final a couple of seasons ago.

Wasn't born for the England v. Germany 1966 one, and was informed by my parents that I was too young for the FA Cup final in 1975.

Anyone else want to join our elitist clique. We're having a bbq at lunchtime. FatFreddy'sCat is bringing the sausages, Sipwell has a barrel of Belgian beer. I'm bringing the red and white burgundy wine and some wonderful cheeses.

1994 USA, all 5 games at Foxborough. Argentina v Nigeria (3-2) was a cracker. 1/4 final, Italy v Spain also an excellent match.
