Northern Ireland 1 : England 0 7th September 2005
That's the one I'll tell the kids about, when they come. Sitting in the Windsor Kop after Healy scored that goal, it felt like we'd won the World cup.
With Liverpool, I've been a bit unlucky. I dont get over that often but I've watched them play United, Everton, Celtic, Newcastle and they didn't win any of them.
I watched them beat Portsmouth 3-0 when Hamaan scored the goal of the season in 2003-2004. Owen got 2 and man of the match, and I shook his hand in the Carlsberg suite after the match. It was Paddy's day and we got full drunk afterwards. The scousers get into the spirit of it more than the Irish!
Another highlight was beating Coventry 4-1 in the treble season. I know it was Coventry but Gary Mac and Heskey's second were top quality. Stevie scored as well. There was a great atmosphere of optimism in Anfield that day. You could feel it from everyone.
