Brooking, Birtles, Currie, Channon & Ball, Francis, Dalgliesh,
McMenemy, Turnip head Taylor......
Mud patches, Mullets, Fans on top of officials - throwing coins. Fan chanting obcentities that can be heard clearly, Takling that would earn Reds today not even drawing a free kick, Terrible defending on the mud heaps, some good goals, Offsides and penalties given without the help - or hinderance of VAR and after watching replays all pretty good decisions, and grounds that are no longer with us - or certainly vastly improved.
Pure joy - This was all we could watch back in the day
Enjoyable, nostalgic hour - highly recommended!
