    By coincidence I happened to watch a clip of Derby County v Leeds in the 75/76 season last night with that famous punch up between Franny Lee and Norman Cooper

    I thought as a commentator he was already kinda past it by the late 90s, but as a youngster loved looking back at the his commentary on the likes of the brazil 82 and France 84 matches. Well loved football geek.

    There’s two games I particularly remember from John Motson’s days - 3-2 France v Portugal in Euro 84 when Platini scored the winner in the last minute of extra time and of course, Ronnie Radford.
