quality Boy I was 14 & I WAS Kevin Keegan every day at the field. Walking around in Liverpool no. 7 every day. That’s the life. I agree. Cheers from Norway 🇳🇴
Wonderful stuff. Amazing to think that only seven weeks later, Villa beat Liverpool 5-1 in the return fixture and I think it was about four nil after 20 minutes or so. People rang the Liverpool Echo office from Australia to check it wasn’t a misprint.One year and a week after this, Villa won 2-1 at Anfield as Liverpool started a nightmare November 77. It was the first home defeat for Liverpool for some time and Andy Gray starred. Liverpool won the reverse fixture however at Easter 78 ; think it was 3-1.
I went to WBA v Liverpool & as a neutral I would watch from the sides area. I got lost & ended up in the away Kop. Packed out & the Kop-ites have a light lad who is on a powerful welder shoulders he starts a footy Liverpool song & it spreads out like wildfire & in 10secs the Kop-ites are signing 🎵Ferry 'cross the Mersey..🎵. Good fans they are.
In those days A B C D E... etc They used to have half time scores printed in the programme and the alphabet was used to correspond to each match to each letter
Half time scores. Your programme had the fixture list on it and someone would put numbers next to each corresponding letter for the scores. There was a match called off for snow and ice in the sixties. The local kids were skating and sliding on the pitch. Some fellers lifted up the numbers like skating judges giving marks out of ten!
1976. 11 years old and keegan was my hero. That's the life.

I remember that time fondly.
As they use to say Jesus saves but Keegan gets it on the rebound.
I was nearly 8. I cried when I read that Keegan was leaving at the end of the season. He was footballs first superstar.
Great atmosphere and Liverpool at their magical best as they went in pursuit of the Treble

No handshakes at the beginning just running out from the tunnel 👌
Callaghan's goal is one of my favourites!
All players are English,no foreigners in each team.
'All players are English'. Really ? John Toshack (Welsh) Steve Heighway (Republic of Ireland), Andy Gray (Scottish).....
@@johnholmes8178 don’t forget Joey Jones! Welsh.
Liverpool won the European cup with 9 English players, 1 Irish and 1 Welsh.
I think identity has been lost in modern football
KOP IS AMAZING
It's full of cunts.

@@EvoGoody you should know. Takes one to know one. There's no need for that language. Children look here.
After 1977 the Kop kinda died off for many reasons.
The BBC did the same Kop introduction at the Newcastle game in 1985 but it flopped
I went to this game, my only visit to Anfield
Dennis Mortimer went on to win the European Cup in 1982 with Villa
The best team ever
Who notices goal keepers without gloves😂
what was the signifigance of all of the letters on wall just past the boundary on the far side of the field? this announcer is fantastic.
In those days
A B C D E... etc

Villa won 5-1 at Villa Park same season.
