My first big match I went to was the Man City v Spurs FA Cup Final replay in 1981
Amazing game with Ricardo Villa running round what felt like about twenty players to score the winning goal and win the game 3 -2

cant really think, havn't seen that many big games with cardiff apart from the obvious ones so its probably Arsenal v Chelsea in the community shied in the millenium

I went to the 1998 Man Utd vs Arsenal Community Shield match in 1998 at Wembley because it was my mate's birthday present from his dad. A good day out but it made me realise how hard I find it to sit and watch a game as a neutral in a stadium. I can't do it any more.

Shit, sorry I forgot that my first big match was Wales vs Germany in 1991 when we beat them 1-0! I was only 8 years old and loved it. 'Give us a wave Nev!'. Haha.

Top tier back row? One of your mates didn't fall backwards over his chair did he? We were one row from the back behind the opposite goal to which Rush scored and some guy fell off his seat near the end and took a load of people out.

My first big game was wales v england in early 80s (Trevor Francis scored)
My first big CCFC game in terms of big crowd was either Luton (10000) when we lost 3-2 or Orient the following season when we won 2-0 to get promotion.

Swansea V Liverpool at the vetch !!!
Swans won 2-0 , and Ray kennedy and Colin Irwin were in the Swansea side - I was very young and took to teddy bears to the match. One with a swansea kit and the other with a Liverpool kit
crowd was 22,000 I think and it was season 81/82 If I recall.
