| Three Hatton fights for me...
Hatton v Tsyzu - Seeing Ricky realise his dream of becoming World Champion in the most electrifying atmosphere I've experienced in my lifetime by miles. The arena was absolutely rocking all night.
Hatton v Collazo - Although he'd fought in the States very early in his career this was thought to be his 'proper' debut in the States. Although there was freak weather over in Boston for that time of the year (weather they hadn't experienced like before there I think) it didn't put a dampner on things and it was probably the most enjoyable break away I've ever had. It's not every day you find yourself in a boozer drinking and playing pool in the company of the Hatton's, Steve Arnold, Mickey Ward, Steve Collins, etc... Bought the cheapest tickets in the arena and because there was so few there we ended up ringside for the fight. Think it was also the longest bender I've ever been on, starting at something like 8 in the morning watching the fa cup final in an Irish bar and going right through to about 11 o'clock the next morning.
Hatton v Mayweather - Obviously not the right result in the fight, but can't take anything away from Floyd who's an absolute master at the game. From the moment the fight was signed the build up and everything was top drawer and to be there and experience it live was something else.

| Not sure if any of these have been mentioned, apologies if it's repetition.
2005 Ashes - Jones holding that catch of Kasprowicz to win the Test. It was one of those couple of hours of cricket that had everything, Australia coming out seemingly beaten, Warne clouting us about, then he treads on his stumps, England need one wicket, a dropped catch, five wides, then that moment. I don't think I've ever been happier than that moment.
Alan Hunte try Warrington v Salford, 2000 Challenge Cup QF. Must have been the 86/87th min, there'd been loads of stoppages, video ref decisions etc, Hunte scores in the corner, kind of doing a cartwheel to win the game for us, cue unbelievable scenes in the terraces, people hugging folk they didn't know etc, just brilliant.
Footballs a tough one. Loads of goals that you remember, or the atmosphere or where you were y'know, but difficult to seperate them. I think one goal for 'How it made me feel' that I remember vividly was probably Owen vs Argentina in '98, I just thought that was a special moment, probably because it wasn't instant, you were with him from the moment he picked the ball up on halfway, and by the time he sent himself wide and you thought Scholes was going to puth is foot through it he then produced that finish, amazing.
Mad actually, this threads quite thought provoking, things you remember. I remember crying as a kid when Waddle blazed over against Germany. I remember my Dad couldn't believe how Linekar hadn't equalised in '86 against Argentine from a Barnes cross, to this day I think it's probably the best piece of defending that I've seen.

| In RL ... Doncasters promotion in 1994 at Batley and beating St. Helens at Knowsley Road on the opening day of the 94/95 Season. The play-off final victory over Oldham at Warrington earlier this year.
In Football ... Boltons promotions - Out of Div 4 in 1988 at Wrexham, at Burnden Park against Preston in 1993 and two Championship play-off final victories against Reading (1995) and Preston (2001). Also FA Cup victories over Liverpool, Everton and Villa in the early 90's when massive underdogs and playing in the lower divisions.

| Seeing Mario Kempes play at OT with Valencia.Seeing Steve Coppells debut for United and realising we had another great winger,as he flew up and down the wing.
Being at the `83 cup final replay when United beat Brighton 4-0.Watching Joe Jordan lay out Middlesborough hardman centre-half Billy Ashcroft with a sly elbow!
Went to every home game in the `75 season,watching the new young United team storm back to the First Division,especially after the misery of the previous year.
Even saw quiz question Peter Beardsley play for a half for United-IIRC it was against Bournemouth or Plymouth on a foul night in the League Cup!
Also visiting the great stadiums,especially the old Wembley,Caesars Palace and Candlestick Park in San Francisco(before it was re-named).
Oh,and being at the JJB last year to see United win the league.

May 26th 1989 Arsenal winning the title at Anfield 2-0 with virtually last kick of the game,loved Brian Moores commentary on Mickey Thomass goal.Even sweeter as 2 minutes earlier Mcmahon and friends had been going round shaking each others hands,winking and smiling.
Wish i had been there live,

I don't remember that.
I do remember him going round and clapping his hands and clenching his fists at his team mates to gee them up and signalling 1 minute to go.
