Not included: watched Llanelli vs Truro City at the Parc-y-Scarlets training pitch in a pre-season friendly due to a waterlogged pitch at Stebonheath Park!
Cardiff City vs Torquay Utd at Ninian Park, 1997/98 season. Score was 1-1, for the record
For pure talent on show, will never forget Wales vs Brazil at the Millennium Stadium - Rivaldo at his peak, Cafu, Aldair, Emerson, Ze Roberto and Elber on one side; Speed, Savage, Melville, Page, Saunders and Roger Freestone on the other. Predictably, it finished 3-0 to Brazil
Any Torquay defeat or thrown-away win. Losing to Ebbsfleet Utd in the final of the FA Trophy at Wembley in 2008 hurt, as did the defeat to Colchester in the 98 play-off final. But the worst of all was getting stuffed 4-0 at home by Argyle in sleet/snow in 99/00
New Wembley edges it on facilities but it can't beat it for atmosphere
Perhaps a bit harsh, but certainly the most intimidating experience - "rowdy" home fans, loads of police, penned into a little corner of one of the two stands. And it's got an athletics track so miles away from the action
