Admin phantom Posted November 3, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 England Vs Brazil just before Euro 2000. Organised a coach full of City fans to go up to the game - we were right alongside the Brazilian supporters, banging their tamborines etc throughout the game Will never forget the look of utter bemusement as we all stood singing Drink up t' cider etc...

Red-Robbo Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 On 01/11/2015, 21:34:02, BS4 on Tour... said: Undoubtedly 1986, I'll never forget the split second of silence when my hero Glyn Riley scored as if the red hordes couldn't actually believe we'd scored at the home of football, and then total mayhem as we celebrated scoring in that historic stadium. And my fave manager Terry Cooper giving THAT emotional post match interview. After all we'd gone through in the previous four or five years Terry, the boys and the fans really deserved that day out and that incredible experience. I remember staring up at the scoreboard and just hardly being able to comprehend that Bristol City were 3-0 up at WEMBLEY....yes, back then it was a magical place. Nowadays every team seemingly gets a chance to play there, it has lost the majesty, the mystery and the magic... Same for me. I'd spent the previous 48 hours staying with my friend Mad Ken in Leicester and travelled down to London that morning still in a chemically altered state. To make matters worse, I was meeting my mum and dad for the match and sitting with them. In the event, it was a joyous occasion rather than the worst possible comedown scenario possible. I travelled back to the West Country euphoric, despite having been awake for around 60 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sargent Pepper Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Bolton was one of my earliest City memories so id say that but I've enjoyed them all to an extent. The Hull game was by far the greatest achievement by the club but there was just so much tension for that game unlike last years trip which made it such good day out.

He sounds like one of the 'Only Fools and Horses' characters who are mentioned but never seen! Like Sunglasses Ron, Paddy the Greek, Monkey Harris and Ugandan Derek!

Only a few hours before I had to depart for Wemberlee, I witnessed him climb down the front of a five-storey building in central Leicester. At 4am. Wearing full Luftwaffe uniform.

marmite Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Quote Must admit the Stoke atmosphere was electric with 80000 or so supporters all dressed in red. Yes they out sang us and outplayed us but what a sight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yardy Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Bolton was the best Wembley trip for me, it just felt a magical day going up with the whole family and my hero as a young lad (Glyn Riley) scored at Wembley! I was at the last game at Wembley England vs Germany in a euro qualifier when didi haman scored a 25 yard pea roller from a free kick....was a great day until the game started, very much like hull!
