United games and where you were

CnutOfAllCnuts · 8th July 2008, 14:29

For some reason, I remember where I was for most United games that I didn't attend to. I.e. which pub, in which city etc I was in, for games 5,10, 15 years ago.

I must get a life.

I would never dry bum you.

I would use plenty of lube.

Im the same

I can remember exactly the pub when we beat city 5-0, where I was when we first won the prem, champions league in 99 is a no brainer, liverpool game where we drew 3-3 after being 3-0 up, loads really just a few that spring. Big games always stick not so sure about not so meaningfull games.

I watched the "99 Final in the hospital with my 4 month old son Who had just been diagnosed with heart disease. His cardiologist was German and wearing the Munich top under his white coat. He joined me to watch the game in the room. The we lad has recovered well and we have sat through the match on many of occasions. I will never forget that day/night.. Credit to the doc aswell he took defeat well

I remember fucking some tidy bird in a flat in East London when United drew at Newcastle in December 2000.

And listening to the 1993 Charity Shield shoot-out on Riviera Radio at a campsite in Vence.

And hearing we'd lost the title at home to Arsenal when I was in Rotterdam for the UEFA Cup Final.

But generally the days when I could remember every match whether I was there or not are long over.

Feed Me · 8th July 2008, 15:24

I'm the same. I can remember where I was for pretty much every United game since I have been a fan.

Sarni · 9th July 2008, 02:23

I used to have this obsession of remembering every single game in details. I knew in which minute we scored, how we scored and what the weather was like on a certain day, all about games that were played up to 3 years backwards.

I lost that and thanks God for it, that was starting to be really creepy.

I was at Butlins when we beat spurs 5-3, being that I wore my shirt someone ran up to me and said it's 3-0

"to us?"

"no"

"fuck off"

Gave me a listen on his radio and it was true, left it and stayed under a cloud all day.

Best Match of the Day I ever watched.

Jesus, that game must not have been good for his heart...

Best Match of the Day I ever watched.

I was walking in the street here in Australia at about 9am on the Sunday morning (a few hours after the final whistle). I was wearing a United shirt of some description and a Spurs fan I have never seen before or since, stopped me and started talking excitedly about the game. He knew the result but seemed even happier about the game than I was. I thought that was strange - but he was a Spurs fan.

I was at Nevada Smiths in NY for the away game against Villa. Mad place it was. Heard so much about it from the Caf and when I went there it was jammed pack with Villa fans (and a ton of ABUs)! And a Villan flag hung from the rafters. When Agbonlahor the roar was deafening. When United scoring the smaller bunch of United fans at the bar went mad. I think its also tradition that Fergies' Red Army is chanted for the last 15 minutes of United's games televised there. Wonderful atmosphere.

Another memorable game was watching United v Arsenal at a pub in Hamburg. That experience sucked. Ruud missed the penalty and the Arsenal players acted like a**holes, especially Keown.

It helps when you only have 2,3 different places to remember.

Get another life apart from the United one

You either recently became a fan or your memory is fucking great I must say.

I've watched United games more or less all over the world, from the North Cape up north to Buenos Aires down south.

Why would I get a life apart from the United one? Sounds very silly!

Watched both Barca games and the final at the Main Event in Toronto. BEST footballing experience Ive had. Packed walll to wall with singing and chanting the whole time. Impossible to get a drink and got many spilled on me. When VDS saved the penalty some people were even crowd surfing. Unreal. I will watch every big United game there from now on. Note to all caf members in the Greater Toronto Area, watch the big games at the Main Event on Yonge and Eglinton.
