    ? You mean a couple of seasons ago? Just clarifying.

    First game - Was qualifying for Champions League in 96ish a 2-1 win over Croatia Zagreb, think Beresford got one or both. He was on fire at that time.

    Best Game - a 6-1 win over Tottenham in the FA Cup again around 97ish time.

    (note some people laugh at the idea of a waiting list having been in place at NUFC in the late 90's but speaking as someone who came from a family with no interest in football - and who had no ticket holders - my only games I got to in the mid to late 90's when I was in my teens were cup games as I simply couldn't get in to see them in the league)

    Best League Game - 3-0 over whichever tin-pot north-west club Alex Ferguson managed. That Duncan Ferguson shot over his shoulder deserves so much more recollection than it gets.

    Last game... honestly not sure. I hate paying money into football. I hope it all implodes and gets relaunched as an affordable and reasonable pursuit. I've not been to a match in a decade I reckon. Went to see Leicester a few times when I lived there and it's possible the last match I went to see was actually Brazil (they played in Leicester back around 2006ish).
