Most probably having a few beers in The Olde Sun Inn near Crook in Cumbria.

If not, having a few beers in The Sultan in Plaistow, east London.

I was watching the semi at my nan and grandads. I wa 9 and my parents wanted to watch it in the pub, so my grandparents offered to look after me.

I remember my nan cheered me up after the match with a slice of her magnificent bread and butter pudding with whipped cream. But i was really too late to eat, so they told me not tell my mum Happy

£800 to £100 W Germany outright on credit with Hills - £100 that I simply did not have. They HAD to get to the final at least, so I could lay it off and deal with other bills.

Watched it with my landlord and landlady and another tenant in Brighton. Neither knew that a W German victory was the only way they'd get the rent. Looking back, I can't believe how restrained they all were at my roar of relief as the final kick flew into the crowd.

That night changed my life for ever. Gave up trying to scrape a living through work and used the winnings to go racing every day instead once the jump season started.

it's sort of been forgotten how dire england were for most part in that world cup. only really played well against holland before the semi. horrific game against the irish, 2nd best against belgium and were getting the run around by cameroon until a couple of lineker dives got us out of jail

I was a bit young at the time, but was there an East German football team?

In 1974 West Germany won the world cup in West Germany, but I believe they were the first winners to have lost a group game. They were beaten 1-0 by East Germany, I remember watching it.

Who was England's manager at that time? Can't be annoyed looking it up. Was that the Gazza's tears game?

My minds blank as to where I watched it but I most definitely did.

Was Steve McMahon a regular in that england team? Definitely started the ireland game i think.

And yes, Cameroon destroyed them everywhere but the scoreboard, one of the best games of the tournament.

A slimmer version of Letitia g2d, think more along the lines of Claudia Schiffer.

The manager was Bobby Robson. The players were said to have become so embarrassed by England's performances at the tournament that by the semi-final they were simply ignoring him, and sorting out their formation for themselves.

Love's got the world in motion, isn't it? Marvellous.

England were abysmal at Euro 1988. Lost all three group games: Holland, USSR and another which I can't recall. (Robson was manager there too.)
