Everton vs Liverpool 1981

With the Merseyside derby fast approaching i thought i would upload some classic derby action from the past. The date was January 24th 1981 and Goodison Park was packed out for this 4th round F.A cup clash between Merseysides two great rivals. This video includes some top footage so hope you enjoy.

Notice that Gerald Sinstadt commentated that Clive Thomas was taking a long walk towards his linesman who hadn't even flagged at 2.55. Ridiculous bias from Thomas.

this is totally unrecognisable football from what you get now. and notice something? hardly any stoppages for fouls trips pushes and play acting people getting tackled and no whistle! pitch is bad but look at the skills all players playing with heart and soul for their clubs....

Isn't it great to see clips of when football was football. The fans running on to share the moment with their team...imagine that now. Believe it or not there woud have been a couple of thousand reds on the Street end that day and the Kop had Blues in the return leg as well. Scruffy pitch, packed Goodison......those were the days

Great crowd, Gwadys Street end packed.

Classic melee with Lyons stamping on Case then Souness jumps in with a sly one on Lyons.
