17/09/97 v Barcelona (h) 3-2 Champions League

This game was the only time I ever broke a rule the night before a game. Oasis were playing at the Arena and I was desperate to see them, being a mad fan. It came to the evening and at about 6pm I decided to go to the gig. Well I wasn't going to be drinking. I put on a baseball hat and a polo-neck zip-up so that no-one would recognise me, bought a ticket from a tout and got into the gig just after the first song. I left just before the end and got a taxi straight back home. I kept it really quiet until after the Barcelona game but after the victory I couldn't help but blurt it out in the dressing room.
