About gabetheyid

First Game

My Mum's team Ipswich Town Vs Chelsea (1.4.2002 - 0-0) aged 6. Unsurprisingly I don't remember much of it.

Best Game

Toss up between Man United away (29.9.2012 - 2-3) when we beat them at Old Trafford for the first time in over 20 years, and Sheffield United away (28.1.2015 - 2-2) in the League Cup semi final second leg.

In terms of atmosphere, Independiente Vs Racing Club (31.08.2014 - 2-1) in the Avellaneda Clasico.

In purely footballing terms (although it certainly had an atmosphere too) was the North London Derby at the Lane in 2011 (20.4.2011 - 3-3) - high scoring, under the lights and end to end it was an amazing experience that really ignited my love of the game and my club.

Worst Game

FA cup semi-final 2012.

Football-wise Hearts Vs Aberdeen (9.1.2016 - 1-0), I'm sure, despite it's negative reputation, Scottish football has more to offer, but this was dire...

Grand, majestic, atmospheric. Amazing ground.

It is impossible to create an atmosphere in the soulless bowl that replaced the home of football.
