adamntg Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 First game at all seater Hampden, against Holland, we lost 1-0, I think it was March 94 so I was 13. It was the 2nd last game I saw while living in Scotland. The last was Stirling Albion Wait. I was at that game. Was that before the 1-0 v Greece? I'm sure that game was more like 98.

adamntg Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Wait. I was at that game. Was that before the 1-0 v Greece? I'm sure that game was more like 98. Ok, you're right and I'm wrong. So my first Scotland game was Scotland 0 Holland 1, 23rd March 94. I'm amazed I didn't know that. My first Dundee Utd game was United 1 St Mirren 1, 25th Nov 1978, Billy Kirkwood for United, Billy Torrance the Saints. Although my first ever game was East Fife 3 Queens Park 2 at Bayview on 26th Aug 1978, stood beside the dug-outs because my uncle Jim (friend of my Dad's, not a real uncle) worked for the St Johns Ambulance. Jim's deid now, sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan Eagle Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 England 0-0 - 137,000 but if I could have chosen it would have been 1973 v Czechoslovakia - I agree with everything Khana Lagur posted about that game and the next 40+ years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BraveheartGordon Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 0-0 v Slovenia in 2004, was 10. Was a terrible game, turgid and underwhelming, Berti waited 80 mins to bring an extra striker on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
