    1) Well done to the Football League for insisting TV covered all four divisions.
    2) Some crowd for a televised 4th Division game.

      It wasn't televised live but shown the next day, so shouldn't have affected the attendance as no one was told which games would be covered beforehand.

    Stewart Houston would hit the big time with the Doc's Man Utd. He must have been thrilled from Div 4. Never give up hope, tho it wouldn't happen now as they buy big names abroad.

      @@bazzatheblue you are right but obviously didn't make the grade in 1967, so when he went to Man U from Brentford he was an experienced player in a great side fashioned by the Doc. The Doc was the Chelsea manager then so obviously rmbrd him years later. Surprisingly he only got 1 Cap for Scotland.

    Great to see the Bees at Griffin Park here. The second goal is particularly good and I enjoyed ex Bee Jimmy Hill's analysis at the end. All being well, the little lad who ran on after the second will be in his 50s now - wonder if he is still a Bee.

    Alan Ball was a class act. He didn't like Leeds and my dad used to call him squealer when I was a kid. I did see him play latterly for Southampton at Elland Road. But with a more educated eye watching these old uploads I can see how good he was. At 50:20 it's amusing to clearly lip read Ball when he gets booked.... "Alan Ball... B A double L" as if the referee didn't know :P

    Three occasions when the Gelderd End would be guaranteed to buzz with excitement.
    1. Lorimer lining up to take a free kick with the goal in visual range.
    2. Eddie Gray on the ball taking on a defender - hopes of Burnley revisited.
    3..Billy Bremner on the ball anywhere - a sense that anything cold happen.

    Couple of dodgy decisions against Grimsby there..great match though on a rough looking pitch.. Grimsby eventual champions. Stuart Houston to go on to Man U, in that decent team of the mid to late seventies, great stuff..MOT

      Yes, can't for the life of me see why second Grimsby 'goal' at 26:20 gets chalked off - Jimmy Hill doesn't shed much light later on either. First 'goal' would have stood under today's laws as well but different rules then I guess.
      Enjoyable, feisty game in any case, played by two decent teams.

    Football at its best the good old days. Not like football today crap stop and start. Players rolling over when they get touched like they have been hit by a truck. Would like too see them with the likes of. Chopper Harris' Noble Stilles Norman Hunter. And watching the so called boring champions of our English league. Heavens for bid lol🤣🤣

      These grounds before TV sport arrived especially pre war zero TV, would have big gates, what else was the working man going to do & listening to the missus harp on was not gonna happen. Match & a couple of pints afterwards & back home for the Light Channel offerings (depending on your age you know what that means).
