1966 for me, just a couple of months after I had started going down the City. Brilliant tournament, Pélé, Eusabio, Charlton at their best.
Two issues with 66 for me.

1. I was too young to remember it
2. That lot won and have been banging on about it for sixty years

Unfortunately my father had no interest in football having been brought up in the USA. I knew nothing of the 1954 (just born), 1958 or 1962 tournaments. The first match I really remember watching on TV was the 1966 FA Cup Final.

People can say what they like about England, but that win did more than anything for the promotion of the game amongst youngsters. The Cardiff schools were predominantly rugby playing establishments at that time.
 
Is @Kiffa 4.0 aware who manages his team Tunisia?
Our one and own, Sabri Lamouchi

I remember it as well. It's seems inconceivable now but at that time there wasn't the rivalry/dislike that there is now and virtually everyone supported England and wanted them to win.

And things like the WC live was a rare treat back then
 
Often found in the off road rest areas in France. :puke:
Are they the ones that have an old crone sitting outside the pissoir demanding money for you to use it?

I'm thinking more of the unmanned "aires" on the rural highways, many of which still haven't been upgraded from a hole in the floor.

I did get charged a Euro to use the loos at the station at Bordeaux last year and was pleased to do so as the place is vast and the toilets are miles from anywhere.

French toilets suck ass out in the country. I went for a piss in the bogs in Super U in Lege before and although the toilet was clearly blocked French people had still continued to empty their guts in it so a mound of shit and surprisingly little big roll was poking up and out of the bog. Needless to say I was delighted and immediately set about excavating all the worm ridden feaces with my bare hands.

3. Hursts goal proven not to have crossed the line. 3-2.
4. Dodgy German hating Russian lineman causing point 3.
5. Fourth goal allowed when fans clearly on the pitch, play not stopped. 2-2.
6. Penalties would lead to Germany easily winning.
7. Cheating English hadn't pushed for penalty shootout to be brought in back in the day, thus preventing point 6.

Sounds like toilets in the Ninian, with less coke.

Happens on Ships quite a bit, get blocked up but smelly bastards still dump on top of other dump.
Affectionately called "shit lasagne" in the RN.

Also remember a mate lost a bet and forfeit was he had to put his hand in the shit lasagne and keep it there for 10 seconds

The line-up for England last night, according to the Tampa Bay Stadium's big screen.
