A couple of points: There are those cynics who would suggest that "Give Us A Goal" was not one of the more, shall we say, distinguished singles that Slade made during the 1970's ...... but one only has to listen to some of the awful stuff that passes for pop "music" nowadays to appreciate just how good that track was - and is.
Secondly, it is worth pointing out that, had this record been released 5 years earlier [in 1973] it would almost certainly have been a sizeable hit.
I once saw Cheggers pissed out his head taking a shit behind a bus in Great Yarmouth in about 83-84, he then pulled up his kecks without wiping his arse and the promptly stood in his own mess before staggering off , put me right off him after that
I reckon this song should have been a hit, it's silly, snappy happy rock'n'roll. Dave Hill looks so funny with no hair in this clip, almost like the precursor to Angry Anderson.
I know just about every clip known to mankind...there has never been a clip featuring Robert Plant at all.
The only clip that even remotely has the band and football in the same street is the 'official' promotional video clip for this track....which was filmed at brighton & hove albions mickey mouse football ground....it is widely available here on youtube....
Noddy Holder looks extremely tough here, as always. He really is rock'n'roll's premier hardcase.

Thanks for sharing!
Great to see this!
Why oh Why is this only possible at huge efforts through fans? (Almost alone our Wolfie)
Where are the officials? What are they doïng? Trying to obstruct and alienate the core fanbase further??
Shame Shame Shame .. Shame on you!! CN+NH+JL
