- Exceptionally rare footage from March 1962 at Hillsborough as Double winners Tottenham Hotspur take on Manchester United in an FA Cup semi final.. Attendance - 65000.. Tottenham line up - Brown / Norman / Baker / Henry / Mackay / Blanchflower / Medway / Jones / White / Greaves / Smith
When Spurs were the best team in the country, magic!
I thought Ipswich were the best team (champions) in 62?
I think Ipswich won the title this year so Ipswich were the best team
@@Caskchap Although Spurs won the cup and beat Ipswich in the Charity Shield.
In the days when spurs used to win fa cup semis. In fact we won 7 in a row from 61 to 91. 'spursy' used to mean winning the big one off games
yes indeed. 8 successive losses from 93/2018 very poor...
7 in a row from 61 to 91😅😂 😆🤣😃😉
This was a wonderful Spurs team.
This was the match which persuaded Busby that United needed to spend big to match the top sides Law and Crerand were signed and 12 months later they were the cup winners. The start of a period when these were the two glamour clubs in the league a tremendous rivalry.
Busby always wanted to sign great talents...the real stumbling block was the hierarchy...Bernabeu offered Utd di Stefano but the insular and negative Utd hierarchy declined... Busby wanted the younger Pele but the answer was resounding NO! The 'Lawman' was the product of disllushionment with Torino manager...a real bargain...the real signing was Crerand...Best from the academy saved them the blushes...
It was also the game where Busby lost total confidence in Giles and decided to get rid of him. Giles mentions it regularly how, after this game, Busby froze him out. He was sold to leeds the following year. A big mistake which Busby later admitted.
@@coolmeenmac761 Sad story there...Sometimes even Homer nods...
Great film.. you can really get a more inside natural look how they players in thsoe days played.. The camera is right up close and the quality of the film is very good..
What a great upload, I really need reminding at the moment what a top team we were, and great club we still are (inspired of our owners).
I meant inspite of our owners!!!
@@roberthoneyball3298 Hey Robert I went to high school in Hampshire in the late sixties early seventies with a Robert Honeyball ?
@@northernspur6282 My father's family are from Richmond, he is also called Robert and in his eighties. They are a big family, I know that there is a horse trainer in Dorset called Honeyball so there are a few around.
Man Utd weren't too bad either..
Blatant pen on Smith 11:07.
Totally was a young Howard Webb reffing .
🤣@@clivewiggins3595
Nearly 60 years ago you needed to nearly kill someone to get a penalty then
@@clivewiggins3595 Brilliant line
As a United fan I have to say it was.
Listen to glory glory hallelujah and the SPURS go marching on
OUR SONG !!!
yeh like when the saints go marching in is southamptons song
Never seen this , great stuff, The glory glory chant at 13.30 is music to my ears
Wonderful footage. Thank you, Duckjive! And how odd to see Johnny Giles playing for Manchester United.
First time I watched this, some great movement all round, no sideways passing, always looking forward, classic Tottenham from the great man behind it all Bill Nicholson. Jimmy Greaves RIP hopefully happy to see Harry Kane break the 50 year record he held, two of the greatest to wear the shirt as was every man in this side. Wonderful stuff to see 😁💯⚽💛💙🏴
Kane not fit to lace Greavesy's boots. Can't dribble to save his life.
Half his goals are from penalties. Greaves never took penalties.
@@jonjotatty957 No, Blanchflower was the penalty ace. A quick run-up, a little shimmy, the goalie went one way and ball the other - into the net. Nowadays they'd have him sussed through endless video slo-mos.
Arthur Rowe approach
Thank you for this great upload .I started supporting Spurs this same season when they signed Jimmy Greaves who was my schoolboy hero .
He was my boy hood hero and stayed that way till he left us
Mine too! The greatest.
Great upload great to see thank you 😀
United were still rebuilding after Munich. This side didn't reach its peak until '66.
We won the cup the following year though.
Won the league in 65
@@dlamiss Yes, but Best was still an 18 year old kid. The holy trinity was probably at its most potent in 66/67, as were Crerand and Stiles in midfield.
We were definitely starting to slide downwards by the end of the 67/68 season.
Commentator mentions Bobby Smith diving at 11:07 (for what was a clear penalty in fairness), interesting that that phrase was part of football terminology back that far. I would have only thought it was a word that came in in the 80s or 90's.
Is this ITV the footage seems so much clearer than any beeb coverage available from even the late 60s.It may have been,like boxing,a cinè film event at local cinemas. IDK but something about it is different from the usuall footage. Unusually to see a late season pitch from that time in such good nick.Spurs played some beautifull stuff.Big crowd,great advert for the era.
Have to say i was thinking a lot of that what you have typed out, love all this older football stuff, As soon as the game started i thought whats this all about with the pitch, looked in top nick for them times and time of the season. I wonder if #duckjive has any action from the 1967 Millwall v Tottenham Hotspurs Fa cup tie The Den and replay at whl ?
Agreed……I wondered too if it was an ITV production.
It’s BBC coverage, with Walley Barnes commentating.
The match was covered on film
The old terracing at Leppings end there at Hillsborough.
Seat cushions tossed onto the field after the opposing team scores. "I've seen this quite often of course on the continent, but not in England". 🙂
I was at the game and threw mine
It always amazes me how they played with that hard Leather Ball ( which when Wet,would get harder!)
A few things...
Typical that it was Greaves to have scored the first goal.
And heading that ball was a bad mistake
Wally Barnes on comentary.
Re the team line-ups: MedWIN (as Mr Barnes makes perfectly clear, more than once).
John White was a great player.
Took me down memory lane cheers,one of my first memories of football(Not te game we have today)God i sound like a right old fart typing this,3 years after the air crash,and Spurs glory years,as a red you wo
Sorry pressed enter instead of shift!(Old fart) as a red you would probably not have had any glory years if not for the crash lol,you were a good side though,i seem to remember the same year you beat us 2 nil at O.T.,Jones two great headers if my memory is right,but one of the best games i can remember would have been the following year,was it Rotterdam?You were supberb,we won the cup that year,beating Leicester 3-1,and we met you in the E.C.W.C.,magic nights,i was there for the second leg when the great Dave MaCkay broke his leg at O.T>,you could hear it snap in the crowd,i don't think we will ever experience times like this again,cheers,and before i forget we won,was it 4-1?Anyway it was the last time you were any good,i'm nearly 70 so you must have the longest suffering fans for such a big club,which you are,any way cheers for the vid,off for my cocoa and a early night for me and my 24 year old thai bride,peace bro
@@lesbatty84 Are you still alive with that young Thai bride giving you attention.
These Thai birds can often have a shock in store for you or maybe that's what you prefer! 😆😆🤣🤣
@@lennylaa1686 Is that you projecting or are you a bit"special"?What the hell you on about?
@@lesbatty84 46 year age gap? Why would a 24 year old get with a 70 year old? .
@@lennylaa1686 Lol i aint 70 till st Davids Day,what is with the 24 year old Thai girl in your sick "ead.are you a tad special as your mamma keeps telling you?Bless Never actually been there,what are you actually on about on this football post,you just bitter cos your teams are pretty much also rans every season?I think you will find that since you last won the league is a bit of a bigger age gap,you would have not won the double if the crash had not happened,pretty sad man indeed,up the Gunners,
Bog roll on the pitch at 7:55 (evidently removed at half-time). A relatively unusual sight back then, soon to become all too common.
And you wouldn't be allowed to take that cockerel banner (at 9:19) into the game now.
I really enjoyed the commentary - any idea who he is? I can't say I've heard the voice before.
Alan Weeks?
@@cerneuffington2656 I will trust your superior knowledge on this one and assume you are correct!
It can't be Alan Weeks because the BBC commentator for this match was definitely Walley Barnes. But i'm not sure if these highlights are BBC or ITV.
Kenneth Wolstenhome.
Walley Barnes is the commentator, former Arsenal and Wales player
If it wasnt for Munich
Whats the A to Z on sideline ?
Half time scores from the other matches. The program had a list of the games and which were a or b etc
Medwin, not Medway. Doesn't footie look leisurely and relaxed by today's standards?
This really resembles ange ball
Sounds like wally barnes
The great days of footie before money reared its ugly head.
Before togger went to shytte.....!
What a great comment, "one foot in Wembley, the other in the car park outside."
That beautiful cantilever stand is still standing at Hillsborough, and is still one of the best stands in the country even today.
back when soccer was played like an NBA zone defense.
