Colchester United V Carlisle United,
Autoglass Windscreen Shield Final,
Wembley, Sunday 20 April 1997

Oh that hallowed turf! Maybe we should have brought some home like the Scots? After all, some people think Carlisle is in Scotland! It was another occasion for expense so I had some T-Shirts printed up for the day.

However, this area is not about the match itself, but about the off-pitch fun. With any weekend Wembley final there are those who go down for a relaxing time and those who go to party hard! These are some of those stories, and if you have a story from that weekend to add to this list, email me.
