adamntg Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I was a late starter, my first match was a 0-0 draw with Croatia in September 2001. Billy Dodds had a goal disallowed. I was 20. Same day England beat Germany 5-1. Went to the game with with my wife-to-be and she head butted a lamppost in frustration after we left McChuills and she'd been subjected to some Michael Owen themed triumphalism by some English students. Kent she wis a keeper then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm sure Jancker had just opened the scoring by the time we got back to Edinburgh then we sat in a boozer and watched the rest of the game before hitting the Subway West End.

mr mojo risin Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Whose centenary was that? 100th meeting or 100 years from the first meeting I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 100th meeting or 100 years from the first meeting I think? Ah right, that makes sense. Whenever I hear the words "centenary international" it brings back even worse memories of Willie Ormonds first game in charge. A 5-0 humping at Hampden.
