    I think its generally a male thing to obsess about particular years, maybe because you all remember who won the football in each year and work back from that! :D

    Not all men do. I couldn't even tell you which team won anything last year or are currently winning this year. In fact I don't think I could even name the different leagues etc.

    1998.

    A great year including the World Cup.

    Not sure any other year will surpass it.

    Any other takers for good years?

    As arguments go for proving one year is better than any other, that is pathetic. There is a world cup every 4 years and I don't remember us winning, so this was nothing special. So what else happened to make it a good year?

    1999 was better for me. A very good year.

    1998 ~ not bad, but just not as good as the following year.

    I had my 1st child in 1998-so it was the year i felt i had grown up.

    1996-1998 were the best years of my life- got a job,own money, new friends, Met Mr Zombie, plenty of boozy nights in the pub,finally grew a backbone to tell the bullying "friends" from school where to go and realised there was a world away from them.
