THE "I WAS THERE" THREAD

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Was at Wembley in '93 when Steve Morrow broke him arm after the Coca Cola Cup Final..was in Cardiff for the '02 and '03 FA Cup Finals..Was on the North Bank for the final day of the '98-'99 season when word came through that Spurs had taken the lead at Old Trafford and hope was all around. Was also there when Arsenal had their "official" largest attendance ever at Wembley against Lens in 1998. All great memories .
