I want to start off by saying i am from scotland so you english fellows are our rivals in sports events so I never cheer for you guys and I think thats the way it should be, it's nothing personal just sports...
Earliest Memory
It was the 94 world cup, I remember germany being bad all the way through despite being champions and sweden being very tricky and drawing with brazil in the group stages and oleg salenko bagging 5 in one game... so earliest memory is the 94 group stages... and bulgaria doing very well!
Favourite goal
got to go with scotlands penalty v brazil in 98... err not much other choice .. lots of great goals though but not any that i would rate my favroute as none of them have really affected me for a while.. S:.. although in 2006 i was in teh stadium for joe coles goal v sweden and rosickys goal v the us both were really good goals and being there made them stand out.. Aha now i remember one I jumped around a lot for and that was henrik scoring v england scored to make it 2-2 it was a pretty lucky goal but henrik was a great player and played a long time in scotland so I respect him a lot and I am always happy when the english dont win(no offence guys) and being there for it was great... 2006 in germany was a great world cup!
Favourite player
Ballack and Kahn I really liked those guys in 2002, kahn in my opinion was in beast mode till the spilled shot v brazil and germany were taking a bashing pre world cup and those guys put in great performances to earn 2nd place, I followed those guys career very closely after that, I even watched bayern every week untill about 2006 when they left.
Favourite celebration
I dont really like celebrations much, one that I have seen on tv is the italian fellow from the 70s or 80s, he scored a very important goal and just was so happy he ran around screaming his own name S: thats nice, i prefer it when the players are overcome rather than some pre planned nonsense
Your most hurtful memory
well since 94 when i first started watching the world cup scotland have been crap so it's probably tom boyds own goal v brazil or maybe brazil winning in 2002 I really hoped the germans would win that one.
Your most hurtful goal
Your most hateful player
I dont really have either of those... maybe under hateful player I would put beckhams, not really his fault but the whole shenannigans in 98 was stupid, he clearly kicked the guy and deserved the red..and I wouldnt say i hate him either, just the stupid media stuff about, infact the same with rooney v portugal, he clearly stamped on the guys nads and had it coming
