This thread has almost made me feel like I've been catfished for years. Thinking I've been chatting to people of similar age only to find out I've been chatting with a crowd of pensioners.

... So much so I almost feel like I need to explain the word catfish to said pensioners.

I'm 70 and I have no idea what you are saying.

IIRC the Holy Roman Empire beat the Duchy of Normandy 1-0 in the final that year.

I am still absolutely fuming about that!! The Empire striker was clearly at least 2 yards offside!! At least that's what the bloke who sat next to me said.

I couldn't quite see myself, as a stadium vendor was blocking my view as he walked past, selling badger spleens and otter noses.

Was always going to be difficult for Normandy though with the Empire having half the world to choose from and rolling out their innovative shield wall defensive system.

Glazier and Stepney March 1968 I was 9. I remember wondering why there was Red and White scarves everywhere. My Dads mate who took me said after you’ve just watched the City beat Man U who had some of the best players in the world

Doh..... Showing my age. Like a load of young lads, the England World Cup win turned me on to the beautiful game much to the annoyance of my dad who was an avid egg chaser.

Bob Wesson or Dave Meeson - can't remember which, but think it was probably Bob.
Then we signed the great Bill Glazier and never looked back (until he broke his friggin' leg ).

Oggy was out with a broken leg, this was about September 1995.

I think I may have even seen Jonathan Gould play aswell before Oggy.

Quite easy really. You just need a wall, some guns, blindfolds and a bit of rope.

And Bob's your uncle.

I know you're only joking Otis, well I think you are.

If you're lucky you may get old one day Otis.

Sadly I can't confirm which keeper.
I was to young to remember and Dad can't confirm due to his lack of memory.
I definitely watched Ramsbottom and Brian King, it may even have been Glazier, unfortunately I'll never know for sure.
It would have been 73/74 aged around 6, who ever it was, I was hooked and have been attending ever since.

Senior moment just checked looked at the wrong line or whatever.

It's exactly as I assumed it would be.
