Loved it in bw, most people didn't get a colour telly until the 80s when prices came down, as I did, bw tv was the norm & most people working class rented them. Sometimes the team strips looked alike but in colour they didn't. bw tv with a touch of ghosting out of 3 channels, best days!
Well they ran opposing to each other so it wasn't that difficult & you'd reconnise them by hairstyles. George Best, Frank Worthington, Bobby Moore, Charlton (both), Ralph Coates 😂, Winston Churchill, Margaret Thatcher..
It must be my age but how magical to hear the legendary Hugh Johns
Always a hard place to go to in the early 70's.
Can't have been much fun watching this on black and white TV...

What was the snooker commentary?For those of you watching in black and white,the blue is behind the red.
Not so sure about white numbers on a yellow shirt either!!
Two brilliant TV pundits in Brian and Jimmy. When you think of the big mouthy trash we have to put up with these days
And did someone stretch the goal to help Martin Peters with his scoring shot :-)?
What a ball that was from Pearce
Blatant penalty.
A difficult one for viewers watching in black & white, as most people still had in those days.

All for about 20p to get in
Must've awkward trying to view this game in black and white
Nope, that's how it was & good commentators like the great Brian Moore was worth a 1000 pictures in colour.
Was the time when all those foreigners got into English football
English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish
Nope, a little later than that. Around 1977/78 or so.
Get the ball forward as quickly as humanly possible, no fucking about. Great stuff
