Where were you on Sunday 30th May 1999 (Gillingham play off game?)

Wembley with two of my best mates, sat inside the concourse two down having another fag. Dragged myself back into the stand and witnessed the miracle. Got my ticket stub somewhere and will never Chuck it. Ended up in Londinium Town pissed as the proverbial. As we three were chucked out greeted by the sight of a naked City fan being booted out of another boozer.
 
Wembley. Ended up 5 rows in front of where I was sat when Dickov scored. Upside down.

Pretty sure our coach overtook the players coach on the motorway on way back. They were having some party.
 
10 years old at Wembley with my Dad, uncles on both sides of the family and a couple of their mates. Drove down in a minibus. 7 of us, only 3 left now.
 
Wembley. 11 years old, first trip to any ground that wasn't Maine road, think it was almost certainly the furthest I'd ever traveled for anything in my life at that point too.

Had tonnes of rag mates trying to give it the big 'un after their treble win but I didn't give a shit because I got to watch city win at wembley. Had my city coat proudly on going in to school next day. Rag mates seemed really irritated that their lauding of their win couldn't get to me.
