psv_killie Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Ronaldo at Selhurst Park Mar 2005. Crystal Palace 0 v 0 Manchester United Said he was a sand dancer and other than the tricks and flicks there was little end product and he wouldn't be classed as a great! What an eye i have for a player! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killie1970 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 George Best playing for Hibs. Didn't realise at the time just how big an icon he was, I was too young 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malcr0 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 I lived in Munich during the mid 80’s and regularly went to watch FC Bayern. Got to see some fantastic players like Lothar Matteus, Andy Brehme, Rummenige, Augentaler, Mark Hughes and also saw Alan MacInally lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ngonge88 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Was lucky enough to be at Man United vs Real Madrid with my dad in 2003. Ronaldo scored an unbelievable hatrick. Figo, Zidane, Beckham Scholes Van Nistelrooy. A pitch full of wonderful players 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbs Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Best when he was at Hibs .... but was too young to appreciate him and what he had done in the game at that time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasboag Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Loved Football Italia, so when Oldco drew Parma I went to see them at Ibrox(yeah I know) - what a team that was though: Buffon, Cannavaro, Thuram (who absolutely ran the show), Dino Baggio, Veron, Crespo, Balbo Saw Parma again in a preseason with Celtic when Nakata and Adriano were playing for them. Also used to work in London overseeing exams in the last week of the Champions league group stages, so have seen some belters there too. Only big one that I really regret missing was Zidane at Hampden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skygod Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 The ones I saw when I was young are more memorable than more recent ones! Pele and Eusebio in 1966. Yashin in 1967. Bobby Moore in 1970. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigD'sGingerLorry Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 I went to a Roma match a couple of years ago when I was there on holiday. Totti was the most famous name on the sheet but I was impressed by their striker, a guy called Mo Sallah that I had never heard of at the time. Like many others I saw George Best play for Hibs and like George I dont recall much about it. I saw Killie play Blackpool in the Anglo Scottish cup. Did Alan Ball play in that match or was he manager? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty66 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 George Best, Gazza, Larsson, Laudrup all at Rugby Park. Figo, Raul, Roberto Carlos, Rivaldo, Xavi, Puyol, Hagi, Shevchenko and Maldini at Elland Road. Buffon, Del Piero, Pirlo. All time favourite is Denis Bergkamp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
