The old Wembley being demolished. Had some bad days there e.g. the 1975 game between England and Scotland and the 1994 FA Cup Final. Outweighed though by great days. The 1986 Full Members Cup Final and the 1997 FA Cup Final spring to mind.

Without doubt my two favourite Wembley occasions as well.

I admit i haven't always been a Chelsea fan, well since about 96, but i can unashamedly say loved beating Spurs, it must be an inherent feeling for most fans, lol

Roma v Cagliari. Not sure of the year. There had been a change to the law in Italy and it was made compulsory for motorcyclists to wear a crash helmet. The players wore helmets to get over the message.

Until I saw the date, I thought this picture was much older.

Great picture. With the 'reception' some fans give visiting teams in Italy.

 Initially I thought the Roma players were wearing the crash helmets to protect themselves to get to the pitch !

That was my reaction when I first saw the photo. Totti looks a bit apprehensive.

Maradona at Napoli.

Top picture I think is his introduction after just signing for Napoli.
