I was only 9 when we played Leicester but remember it very well - especially the way home and my usually reserved dad singing "We are Premier League " and honking the car horn all the way home.

For two years I was in the same group in uni as Tamsin Greenway (who plays Netball for the England senior squad these days) - She's a Leicester fan who went that day and we had interesting conversations about the BLATANT Steve White foul Wink

I lived in Germany in 1990 - my dad wanted that to be my first Swindon game but it wasn't to be.

Don't think i'll ever experience the tension and fear of that Bodin penalty when watching any Swindon side again. You never know, but the whole day, the way the match went and the setting will never be surpassed.

I think 1990 was the best game I have ever whitnessed live 'in the flesh'.

It was perfection and we could and should have won 5-0 not 1-0.

My earliest football related memory was the 1996 play-off final, leicester vs palace. Being in a pub in leicester, full of leicester fans and i can still  remember my whole family going loopy. Still looking back, it brings back good memories

Champs league final 99 and 05 Great comebacks by both teams. Invincible goal against Peterborough and Fallon Overhead kick. The Scots beating the french at Hampden was spinetingling. Zidane volley against Leverkusen at Hampden. That is about it really.

Fucking eh! I can still watch that over and over again.

I saw Fallon in the Plymouth starbucks the other day with some other Plymuff players... I've never seen a group of men at lunchtime on a Wednesday looking so tarted up!

wycombe away when we won 3-2 has to be my best memory of a game i've been to. The last 10 minutes, the weather and the town fans going mental after the winner

Love that goal. Such a great strike and I think part of it was the occasion too as I had never seen a full CG before. That raor when it went in was unbelieveable!

Well if we are taking it down this route....scoring a 25 yard free-kick against FC Chippenham counts for me! Of course it was deliberate  :--
