Danke shoen and all that "ve are not ze Eenglisher hooligans". But possibly the worst was being booked on a 3 hour flight the day of our semi final at Tynecastle v the dirtiest ever Fun side in 87. Being mid flight knowing we were in play and not knowing the result when we landed at 6pm UK time was a nightmare. Absolute meltdown. Had to phone home from the airport to find out the result.

    I've been UnitedMad since my first match and still am.
    Great stuff Stokie boy.

    Born raised and still live in Dundee
    First game Utd v Aberdeen final at Dens
    First Euro game away was Lens - as an aside I actually scored the only goal in what must have been 30 a side against the French outside a massive hypermarket where we stopped off for booze
    Lost both trainers in the surge at Old Trafford when we went 2-2
    First sneaky in was through the big green wood gate at Easter Road
    First rammy was outside Aberdeen train station against SSB
    Worst day was final against St Mirren
    Best day apart from winning league as I was a bit young to fully appreciate that was winning Scots Cup against Gers
