I cant wait! Its gonna be a whole lot different to wathcing it on TV no doubt! woop

not at Arsenal you wont :p hehe

awesome news though, i remember my first football match..

Walsall vs... some other crappy team! ahh i was amazed :p

My first game was England vs. Georgia at the old Wembley. World Cup Qualifier. (The days of Shearer and Sheringham).

This goal was a classic.

I was sat near the corner post so saw this goal perfectly!

2nd and last game was Bristol City at home vs. some random team, can't remember now.

You were about 200 yards from where i used to live :)
 
First game was with some friends from school to see Exeter City play - can't remember who it was against but I remember it was 0-0 for most of the match and then Exeter scored in about the third minute of stoppage time. :D

It may have been a small ground but the roar was pretty loud!

I would have been to more, and probably more "high profile" but time and money were both short when I was young.

My first was Clayton Blackmores testimonial between Middlesbrough and Man Utd, Hughes got 2 and his second was a cracker. First at OT was Fergusons testimonial where I saw Cantona, Beckham and Robson all on wearing the 7 shirt.
 
I think my first (which wasn't rubbish non-league local stuff) was Nottingham Forest v Man Utd, my uncle was a Forest season ticket holder at the time. Must've been 94-95ish, I was only 7 or 8, though I don't think I'd fancy sitting with the opposition fans these days...

I don't get to enough any more, partly due to living in Scotland and the SPL not being quite the same...Only been to OT once since coming to uni.

Still, you'll have a cracking time, and I'm very jealous. But I still hope you lose :p
