on a similar theme to the heroic thread on here

has anyone attended a truly great sporting moment, for example
botham headlingly 1981
any of the coe ovett races
the england germany 5 - 1 game
world cup 66 ..etc etc

or has anyone just missed attending one - say the 1981 headingly test but going on the first 3 days

The summer of '05' has to go down as [iTHE[/i sporting moment (albeit a 4 month moment)!!

Hull winning the CC
Liverpool winning the CL
England winning the Ashes

Attended 2 of the 3......

Winning Grand Finals with Saints and getting promoted with Wigan to the prem

Being down at Millmoor to see Rotherham United beat Brentford, and getting promoted to Division 1 in 2002 after so many years of mediocrity was sweet

Watching the Miami Dolphins beat the New York Jets in New York on the final game of the season this year, 1 year after going 1-15, to 11-5, and winning the AFC East Title. Best thing was, that our quaterback, Chad Pennington, was cut by the Jets just 2 weeks before the season started to make way for Brett Favre, he came back to the Meadowlands and led the Dolphins to victory

Attending Back To Back Grand Final wins over St.Helens.

Went on the 1st day with school and watched the Aussies bat all day.

also what about being present at any notorious events eg. the man utd v palace game when cantona kicked the fan, or the hansie cronie fixed test match (what do you mean there was more than 1?) or perhaps the benn v mcclellan fight.

by the way i was staying in nottingham in 1989 and went to see forest play qpr in the lesser cup whatever it was called at the time (worthington i think). this was of course the notorious game when the fans invaded the pitch and clough hit 2 of them

I saw Leeds get relegated

Champions League Final 1999, life doesn't get much better than those final 3 minutes

John Part winning the 2003 PDC World Championship.

England getting knocked out of Euro 2004 by Ricardo





Attended: 0

Leeboy_1987 who very occasionally posts on here sneaked out of Selhurst Park early and missed the Beckham goal from the half way line

Yeah but...I don't think you get the thread. It isn't "Personally gratifying sporting occasions". It's "legendary sporting occasions".

Were you there at the respotted black Davies vs Taylor for example?

Sod off!

Thread title: "your most memorable sporting moment"

Dozy pillock.

And read the very first post of it, stupid little bag.

I'm going to start a thread.

Title: Anyone been to Old Trafford?

Content: Who likes cheeseburgers?

So seeing St Helens win a grand final or Wigan Athletic being promoted to the Premier League is considered a 'Legendary sporting occasion'

Do it all you want. It's about the level of your usual drivel so yeah, carry on.

Your contribution to this thread: trying/failing to belittle a poster. I can't think of what would be less than drivel, but christ do you manage it

Please point out where I was belittling anyone before you came along.

Why do you persist in de-railing the thread?



You tried to belittle Sammy Stripes, who quite correctly followed the title of the thread.

"To represent or speak of as contemptibly small or unimportant; disparage: a person who belittled our efforts to do the job right."

Fits the bill perfectly. Back under the stone you go.

HTH.

Absolute bollox. I didn't belittle him at all, and you know I didn't. You started the belittling. You did.

It doesn't bother me. You're a nobody on a messageboard.

You're an absolute joke tbf.

It hurts, it really hurts



But then you're a "nobody on a message board" so I will sleep alright tonight
