Dalziel Kane Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Highbury was one in the 1930s for sure, don't know the others, maybe Elland Road and Hillsborough, could be anything.

rubecula Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Yes it was Spain in the 1996 game at Wembley. (Can't remember the score though) but this was mentioned on the TV the other night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 I knew the answer before it was given, it's probably been mentioned enough times the last few days as past reference England 0 Spain 0 (aet) June 1996, European Championships quarter finals It was exactly how it was the other night, England were outplayed for vast amounts of the game and Spain should have won comfortably by the end of 90 minutes, but they could not find the breakthrough and lo and behold the English sneaked a win on spot kicks, fuck me it almost happened again the other night.

MikeO Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 It was exactly how it was the other night.... Wasn't remotely like the other night....it was a very even game. http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/season=1996/matches/round=223/match=52911/postmatch/report/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 I thought that was reference to Sunday night and I got a bit worried until I saw the link No, actually, I remember it vividly, Spain were by far the better side, it was not how you say, they fully deserved a place in the semi-finals but could not make it count, they had two goals ruled out by that days match official and also two tangible penalty strikes were not awarded, English were very fortunate to win on the day. It's just something most will remember. There can be no dispute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 No, as in no dispute as what was said originally, was indeed factual and correct. There was some twisting of the facts apparent. I just wanted things presented in their true form without inaccurate statistics or confusion. Issue is closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how you remember it is factual and correct, without inaccurate statistics or confusion.....and how I remember it is twisting the facts? I maintain, and anyone who saw the two games (other than yourself) would I'm pretty sure back me up.... Sunday we were a totally embarrassing pathetic shambles, in 1996 we weren't. Therefore saying the two games were exactly the same is just absurd imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 I do believe it's Italy. Hasn't it already been decided, I'm sure I remember hearing something along those lines. Last host of European Championships was 1980 and any other event was 1990, so it's about time they staged another tourney, it does add up. This (2012) tournament shouldn't have been held in Poland and Ukraine, what a dumb idea, most soccer supporters of european nations will simply have had too much difficulty in attending, it was the wrong venues, maybe Denmark/Germany or Spain would have been better.

Dalziel Kane Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 There's little chance UEFA would hold a tourney with three seperate nations, it's a nice idea, with venues in Dublin, Cork, Glasgow, Edinburgh and the English stadia, but that idea seems doomed to failure, if it did go ahead, only Scotland and Eire would seem feasible, the Welsh would just go by the wayside, and apart from The Millennium Arena, other stadia they possess doesn't really feel suitable.

Dalziel Kane Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Very well, but it's about time they were given another chance to hold an event, it's been 22 years now and stadia like The San Siro, Turin, Naples and Rome are crying out for international soccer fixtures once again, I remember was a success the Last event was in 1990 but times change of course At least it's not the same bunch of fucking Idiots who decided to hold (World Cup) competitions in Russia and Qatar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THFC6061 Posted June 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Wales, Scotland and the Rep of Eireland?

Dalziel Kane Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Plastic charlatans could be another, but not sure about that. Let's start with what we know or believe to be correct Everton, Tottenham, Arsenal, Manchester Utd, LFC, and even Coventry I think (at least not until a few weeks from now, but still not played hitherto all the same) This is quite tough, but not going to give it any more thought.
