    Getting beat in the Cup final by Liverpool in 1974 - though it was more to do with going to the ground to welcome the team back than remembering it as news. Not sure the heatwave of 76 counts either as it was more to do with living through it. Probably the same as Comm and the death of Elvis for remembering the news flash.

    How am I supposed to remember something from the 60s, that said I'm sure Trev will recall the ending of WW2.
