When MTV stopped playing music videos!
Or perhaps the stupid Y2K bug that never was. What a bunch of hyped up hysteria.

I was hoping for End of Days..... Boy has Revelations lied to me.
On top of that, there's England losing three semi-final penalty shooutouts in the nineties.
Margaret Thatcher surviving the Brighton bomb..
The Republicans losing the Spanish Civil War.

I agree with Seko about the MTV thing, I also think the dissapearnace of the 80;s as a major culture is saddening especially for music.

I can only remember the one in France 98 against Argentina, when and against what teams were the other two?

So forgettable the other two I agree, practically amnesia in a white and black kit. It's psychological mental block that making you not remember, common with all traumatic experiences, if you remeber you scream. Best to block out, automaton football played by a teams of personalty donor donkeys. Xanax with a ball, for the viewer. I wonder what country it could be?
P.S. Michael Owen scored a hat trick against Columbia yesterday. He hasn't scored one for a long time. I'm having trouble remembering where his last one was, can you help....

The last visit of our Prime Minister to USA. The bitter end was that they let him come back.

Not really, but I'd prefer debauchery to Hitler.
