Ian Storey-Moore’s wife not to be messed with . Ironically he left Forest as they were about to be relegated . Derby , without his services won 2 league titles in 4 seasons and he suffered a career ending injury in his second season at Old Trafford as they were also relegated . A sad foot note to one of the best strikers in that late 60’s early 70’s era . Forever a Forest Legend 🫎🌲
Football on TV before all the political correctness. Better presenters and commentators. Better Football too. But where have all the Irish, Scottish and Welsh top league footballers gone. Not to mention all the English footballers. If you could fill great teams at the top league level with those 4 nationalities in the 70s why not now? They haven't disappeared so where are they?
I think Arsenal should have won the league that year. Winning that match at Anfield-one of the best performances by them that I ever saw. The mistake by Jeff Blockley against Sunderland was a gut wrencher-I took a lot of stick from my friends after that one. But Sunderland were worthy F.A. Cup winners that year. Jim Montgomery's double save against Peter Lorimer is still the best I've seen. Thanks for the memories.
Football hooliganism was used as a safety valve by the establishment. Just imagine if all that working class anger and organisation had gone into left wing politics! Once you got to the late 1980's and Communism was no longer a threat, and capitalism could see a way of making loads of money out of football through broadcasting it was clamped down on.
As a Villa fan I look back on that as a great season. Only our second season back in Division 1, we finished 4th with Andy Gray voted PFA Player and Young player of the year. Gray and Brian Little scored almost 60 goals between them. We won the League cup in a 3 game final against Everton. Liverpool ‘slipped up’ against us in a 5-1 thrashing. Of course watching this you would be almost totally unaware of all this.
I think that referee decision for West Brom in the 2-1 win at Leeds was spot on. Was a deflection off the West Brom player, not a pass to a team mate. Fair goal.
Listening to Ɓrùçe singing brings back happy memories of my wife Meryl whose birthday it would have been on the 27th April, she would have been 59 years old. 😊😊❤❤
Господа, я из великой и непобедимой ядерной державы России. И вот что я поясню вам, чёртовы вы англосаксы, тот футбол, в те года, он настоящий, без грязи. И заметьте, негров на поле нет почти, вот это олд скул, ёбаные вы англосакские ублюдки. Мы вас всех трахнем скоро, идите жопы свои мойте. Хуисосы
