I have to credit my good buddy Spongebob Monny for giving me this idea. Credit where credit's due. Belgium 4-3 Russia in the 1986 World Cup is, for me, the best and most incredible game of football I have witnessed live on the box. I was only 6 at the time but the memories of that game are etched indelibly in my remarkable mind. If you have never seen it do yourself a favour and **** off.............um I mean try giving it a gander, Sublime football. Must dash, Soup is ready.
Only pretentious pricks and hipsters rave about games they had no emotional investment in. West Germany 2-1 Holland in Munich in 1974 was the best WC Final ever though, tbf.

Except I am 1/5th Russian you ****ing ignorant junkie drunken remoaning ****wit. You ****ing hate the country that is Englandshire.
You mean you got pissed on 1/5th of a bottle of Smirnoff, and played a recording of the Red Army Balalaika Ensemble? Such a record does exist, I think my mum still has it.
Semi final 1990 is the one that really stirs memory/emotions, such drama. Almost as good as the time Hitchin knocked one of the Bristols out of the cup.
Taigs 6, Sons of William 2. 2000. I had a ticket but gave it to an overseas visitor and went to watch it at a small and exclusive gathering where we were up to our knees in straight off the rock Colombian MP. Didn’t matter that the SoW got a consolation couple of goals courtesy of the bent ref as usual, some very fine mayhem ensued.
