    does Anglo Italian cup v Grimsby count?

    I saw David Rocastles last match in Malaysia and went to the final of the African cup in Egypt when Egypt won which was ******* mental.

    One. Pre-season friendly at Girondin Stadium Bordeaux in 1978 or 9, which was purported to be Kevin Keagan's first match for Hamburg. A 2 - 2 result with Mr. K. coming on three minutes from the end. The 12,000 crowd were needless to say p.....d off.

    I reckon the only non Barnsley game I've seen other than one Rotherham game, is Japan vs Egypt in the Olympics at Old Trafford. Japan won 3-0.

    None. Doubt I ever will. If I'm in a foreign city I'll be in the pub, not a football ground.

    Been to quite a few Zenit games. Atmosphere generally crap unless they're playing Loko, Spartak or CSKA.

    St Etienne v Ajax in the late 80's, when St Etienne were no longer very good but Ajax were very decent. Ajax won 3-1.

    Not European, but went to see Tampa Bay Rowdies v Miami Heat in 1992. Definitely the worst game of "professional" football I've ever seen, by a very very long way.

    Seen PSG at Parc des Princes including versus Real Madrid and Juventus (not at same time, obviously). One PSG game was against Nimes with Cantona playing. Also went to see Red Star 93 a few times as well as Sporting Lisbon vs Aston Villa at Red Star's ground. Also seen Ajax at old ground (82), Juventus at old ground (89) with Schillaci up front, Fiorentina versus Juventus when Baggio still played for Fiorentina, St Pauli, Hertha Berlin and Freiburg all at home, Nimes at home, Marseille at home, Venezia at home, Celtic at home, Lausanne at home, Anderlecht at home and Atletico Bilbao at home. Also Leeds vs Barcelona with Cruyff in 75 who was almost as good as Kenny Brown.

    I've been to quite a few. In fact 105.

    My first was Dundee United v Juventus in 1967.

    United away Euro games include Man Utd, Lens and Coleraine. Also saw United play at Union Berlin in a friendly.

    I've seen many Euro games at Dens park, Tynecastle, Easter Road, Love Street, McDiarmid Fir Park and Pittodrie

    No, mate.:D But it WAS their only home victory that season. I never felt my contribution from the terraces that afternoon was fully appreciated!:D

    I did hear that a bronze statue of you was to be erected at the ground in honour of your contribution to their season that year.
