I'd try and decipher your question on behalf of the literate Scottish contingent, but I'm sure they get the gist of it.

My answer is
A.All the ones I've seen and
B.None

I was invited to hospitality at Mordor, sorry, Ibrox for a Hibs game once, took great advantage of the has to be said, excellent food and beverage.A very civilised atmosphere, until Ivan Sproule scored a hat-trick and I just couldn't contain myself.The burning feeling of many,many bears eyes didn't diminish my wee party, so a steward demanded I leave.Gave the vickies to the directors box and danced down the stair.My host wasn't best pleased and I've never been invited back.

I cheer them all, if there have been more against England it's not my fault England concede so many goals.....

you would be very wrong as far as I and anyone I know goes........

we cheer Scottish goals and we equally cheer English goals against anyone (except Scotland) as we are British:whoo:


I do get where you are coming from as there is a hard core unfortunately who relish any defeat by England in any sport...quite sad and I blame the parents!

World cup in Spain in 82, my first time abroad, must have been about 12 at the time. It was just a family holiday that coincided with the tournament. My old man and I were sat in a bar in Torremolinos watching Spain v N. Ireland. When Gerry Armstrong scored that goal that eventually won the match we both went nuts, then quickly remembered where we were when about 150 hacked off Spaniards turned to look at us, we left and watched the rest of the game in the hotel.

Another one was going with a mate from my Navy days to watch West Ham v Barnsley in a mid week cup replay back in the late 80's. We could only get in the West Ham end as we travelled from Portsmouth, not with the Barnsley supporters. Of course Barnsley scored first and we both did the "take sharp intake of breath, leap onto your feet about to cheer and punch the air thing" before we remembered where we were and both sat down without making a sound, just about got away with it although we did get some funny looks, might be just as well that the Hammers won the game.

Surely the fact you know it was June/July 1982 would make you certain of how old you were.....no?

My apologies for my tardiness, I was 12 years 4 months 23 days 17 hours and 45 seconds old when the ball hit the back of the net. Didn't mean to upset you by talking about the World Cup, thank god I didn't mention 66 eh.

That's better.A Yorkshireman who can count....well done.

If you need a hand with counting the chips on your shoulder just let me know.

Don't take it personally he's like that with everyone, oh! unless are you a Rangers fan.:rofl:

 

[Doon frae Troon]

We were at Easter Road for a cup replay on a Wednesday night.
The special train with the Rangers supporters was late and a large group of 'ruffians' stormed in behind us on the terrace about five minutes after KO.

'Whit's the score pal' asks a man mountain.
My silly little excited Hibs friend shouted 'Hibs are two up' [which they were]

The rest of us tried to look like he was not with us.

Glad you've recollected it fully now.Bad memory can be an awful thing especially when it comes to remembering dates of birth.

Bernabeu stadium.

End of the row, back row, free kick comes in and little Yossi Benayoun heads it past Casillas.

I still celebrated as if I was in the Liverpool end. Luckily, as well as the 3,000 in the away end, there was a good few thousand more dotted around the home end.

OR

Had a dance off with a mate at a wedding. The missus spins me round on the dancefloor, breakdance style. I then stand up, lists 5 yards sideways right into some woman.

5 minutes later, she was seen in the toilet putting her wooden leg back on.

Your life must be very empty if all you've got to do is nit pick peoples posts, you have my sympathies. Don't bother replying because you will be on "ignore" from now on. See ya!

It's been a pleasure.

England v France in Euro 2004 for me too.

I was working down near Watford at the time and went to the pub for a few pints and to take in the game. For 90 minutes I listened to a pub full of English fans spout on about how they were gonna finally do it and nobody else stood a chance, best in the world blah blah blah.....

Then Zizou scored in the 90th minute. Silence.......

I managed to contain myself and made for the door of the pub, where I duly cheered and danced to myself in the pub car park. After a minute or two I managed to compose myself, dusted down and walked back into the hostile atmosphere, hoping nobody had noticed my celebratory jig. Just as I strolled back in Zizou was placing the ball on the penalty spot........

I will never forget the look on the guys face next to me as I leapt in the air and roared with delight as the ball hit the net for the second time in 3 minutes, it was like I had taken a mssive dump on his shoe. Needless to say I got physically chased out of the door and most of the way home by some of the regulars, kept a rather low profile around the town after that. Worth it though, what a moment.
