You should be thankful that old fogeys like me are about on Youtube to correct the young'uns on their football knowledge....
Next time you kids wonder why Arsenal weren't playing at the Emirates stadium in 1979 or if Liverpool have ever won the Champions League & you decide to write it in a YT comment rather than spend 30 seconds on Google to find out, then that's what i'm here for!
Oh those were the exact questions i was about to put up on Youtube, thanks for saving my time grandpa
From next time i would have some bit smarter ones for the elderly like you who, til the very moments they die, love to spit out their meager knowledge voluntarily for young lads!
Fantastic stuff. I was at this game and still have the programme. I can't believe it was so long ago. Later that season I went into the bar on Plymouth station while waiting for the train back up to London. I couldn't believe my eyes when I realised that George Best, Rodney Marsh, Bobby Moore etc were all in there. I managed to get George Best's and Bobby Moore's autographs and still have them. Two legends of the game and both great heroes of mine.
Glad you enjoyed and Happy New Year to Ya!! You are probably like me recalling the days of great entertaining footballers like Marsh, Best and Tony Currie!! My all time fav player when I was younger was Steve Coppell, great winger!
Love you George, what a player!!!...........and I'm a Liverpool supporter!!
RIP mate. You were one of the best.

you could tell Best was unfit here....certainly not a fit as Marsh was...
however he was only 29/30 at the time & with a bit of conditioning probably could have walked back into a top flight team...

theunsheep 2 years ago
Yes it is!! It is from a show in the 1980's. A 3 or 4 part show with George and Rodney talking about soccer in the 70's/ 80's
Glad you liked it!

Frankly and 30 and with the searing pace gone Best was really just another skillful player at the time but always lovely to see him. Thanks.

Great to again see the Marsh goal that curled in that's been tattooed on my brain since I first saw it at 13. Nice work.
