Me too! It was a great year to choose because we won the FA Cup for the first time in our history and also had a magnificent run in the European Cup, which was only stopped by Inter Milan's corruption.

In that case I'm of even longer standing despite your greater, ahem, venerability. I started in the early 60s when I began to develop an interest in the game, at the behest of my Gooner dad, but decided I wanted my own team to support. I knew I'd been born in Liverpool (we had moved to Malta by then) so the name caught my eye when I was looking at the sports pages. Effectively Shanks and I started at the same time. 8)
