I was there (17 at the time) to see West Ham - sorry, England - win the World Cup. We haven't had three West Ham players in the England team since then so we'll just have to keep waiting!

I was watching the match in 1966 on TV in a German bar in Iserlohn, Westphlia and I was the only Englishman in the place.

Can you imagine how difficult it was for me not to leap out of my seat when we scored the winning goal???? (But the survival instinct kicked in and I simply bought a very large celebratory beer instead)

I was almost 10 and watched the match on TV. The day after the match I visited my cousins who lived near Wembly and we collected souviniers from around the old Wembly before being asked by secrity to move on!

Remember the song:
Singing Red White and Blue, World Cup Willy. We all love him to, World Cup Willy, Strong as a Lion, never gave up, that why Willy, won the World cup! :)
