Anybody else listen to the "Quickly Kevin will he score?" podcast? 20:28 - Nov 6 with 1923 viewsSpruceMoose

This week they covered glorious England team failures. Listening to the commentary of the West Germany England WC semi final, nearly brought a tear to my eye on my commute. The music, the memories. Probably the first WC I can recall being emotionally invested in as a kid.

They also mentioned (I don't know if true) that a lip reader had worked out what Bobby was saying to Gazza after the 90 minutes. That almost sent me over the edge. Bobby was such a class act. To paraphrase, he was telling Gazza he was magnificent, the player of the tournament, he was proud of him, and that it was just the beginning for him.

Never realised Gazza never made it to another World Cup though.

That was the seventh World Cup I 'emotionally invested' in. Don't really remember 1962.

Brazil won.
We lost to Brazil in the quarter finals .
Our victory in 1966 cheated them of a straight hat-trick of wins.

Don't think our win really counts seeing as we beat a country which no longer exists. One of the many bad things to occur when the wall came down.

By the same token, we didn't 'win' the First or Second World Wars, as neither Imperial Germany nor the Third Reich now exist.

I knew there was nothing to be proud about in Great Britain.

Glenn saw to that such that when we needed a final bit of inspiration to get past Argentina in round 2 in 1998,all we had on the bench was rob Lee. Just too young to remember 1970,so 74 and the Germany v Holland final was the first one for me. Grew up thinking England never got to world cups although they have won it in my lifetime...just (3 weeks old!)
