    ...today, in fact, if you follow this feed.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/football/26684674

    Looks like they might show the whole game and having a bit of fun with it by asking people to tweet in about what they think 'might' happen <laugh> I'm sure some people have never seen the game before - I think I've only seen it once - so could be a chance to see what winning a world cup is like. I doubt we'll be finding out for real any time soon...

    Having been fortunate to watch the game live,it will
    bring back many memories.
    The lows when Germany scored first,the euphoria
    when we equalized and took the lead.
    The low again when Germany equalised and took
    us into extra time.
    Never to be forgotten when Hurst scored his hat trick.

    Great memories.

    I'm not usually one for too much nostalgia, but I like this. Good idea from the Beeb.

    I remember it so well even though I was only 9 at the time.

    I remember when Hurst scored the fourth - I shouted "Hurst - bloody brilliant" and got a clip round the ear from my dad (R.I.P dad x) for swearing !!

    The submissions to the 'live feed' are rather amusing:

    Can't believe Greaves has been left out. Shocker from Alf Ramsey.

    Can't see it myself, the West Germans are too strong.

    Can't believe Jimmy Greaves isn't playing, don't rate Hurst personally

    I can't believe FIFA have appointed Russian officials, they're bound to favour W> Germany in any contentious decisions! <doh>

    Technically, the Germans look a little ahead of us. Better at finding space, and less reliant on long balls. Whatever the outcome of this game, we're really going to need to start improving the technical abilities of players at a grassroots level.
