Barry McGuigan beating Pedroza in 1985 to win the World Title.

Wouldnt be a big boxing fan but remember sitting at home with my Dad and Uncle watching the fight with everyone going crazy when he won.

Why did you put a smiley after it? Odd post.

Where in this thread did you see someone mentioning Heysel followed by Smiley Grin? Or did you just decide to add that in?

No Liverpool fan is proud of Heysel, one of the darkest days of the club, not only costing the lifes of many fans, but also resulted in the banning of English clubs from europe, caused by a stupid selfish minority.

World cup in Argentina 1978, Mario Kempes became my hero. I was a running around in an argentina shirt for years after that.




even during the falklands war, which got me some funny looks.

Unfortunate as it may be, Heysel is still a sporting memory, as is Bradford, Hillsborough, and Munich.

K-9 mentioned it, but just as a memory, which is what the subject is, your the one who included the smily which appeared a paragraph later, and questioned his thoughts on it.

I didn't ask in my OP memorys that you were proud of, just memories, I only decided in mine to includ major world events. I dont remember Heysel my self, but only the repercussions of it. I remember Hillborough and being numbed by it, it was one of the first disasters I remember seeing on the TV, and which the repercusions continue today.

He obviously edited for a reason, if it was a mistake the poster would have said so. His response clarifies the reason so I wouldn't bother. Strange, strange post and I've read a fair few!

The smiley face was in the original post after the poster mentioned all his sporting memories, I found that quite odd, I'm not getting into a debate about heysel so forget about it and get back onto people's sporting memories.

Ray Houghton's goal against Italy in 94, and possibly something to do with Sonia O'Sullivan beforehand? 92 Barcelona maybe?
