Incredible that Martin Tyler was commentating in 1977 (in fact his first football commentary was in 1974) and still commentating in 2023. He will be 78 in Sept. 2023!
We had it in our area of the country , always enjoyed Hugh Johns commentary every week on a Sunday afternoon 2pm after a Sunday roast aah those were the days .
The Arsenal Irish players Pat Jennings goalie, Pat Rice (C) and full-back, Sammy Nelson full-back, David O'Leary centre back, Liam Brady midfielder and Frank Stapleton striker.
West Ham managed to avoid the drop at the end of this particular season , but went down the following year, with Newcastle and Leicester joining them in Div 2. In 1977, Stoke, Sunderland and Spurs were relegated.
Yes, their last two games were against Liverpool and Man Utd who were both playing in the FA Cup Final a few days later and were probably saving themselves a bit.
That was George Lyall of Hull's last game in the Football League. The break obviously killed his career as he only played less than 50 non league games for Scarborough.
Great West Ham game thank you, still got that away shirt, but haven't fitted in it for over 40 years!
I'm not a West Ham United fan but that white Admiral away kit is iconic,especially after beating Arsenal in the FA Cup Final!
@@alanprior7650 It certainly is Alan

Brady, Hudson, Brooking, Devonshire - four of the finest midfielders of their generation all on the pitch at the same time.
Saw them all at Luton, usually on the winning side! 🧐☺️

Pitches like tapioca puddings - how good was Liam Brady?

Who was the offending Bolton defender?
It seemed to be a fair challenge as he came across.
@@lennylaa1686 None other than Sam Allardyce. It was not a great tackle to be honest on second look.
love to see British n English players playing unlike today. home grown players not getting enuf chances
Blimey! Trev' B eh 🔥 (noice1)
Not many Geordies at OT by the sound of it.
My 7th birthday!

The Highbury library
Mac Donald loved himself , Mervyn Day was awful and Bonds soo overrated .
