Thanks for posting this! The good old days of football with real characters and players who had genuine talent - even more so to play on those pitches! Fantastic video!
I was at that game as Blues season ticket holder. It was a time when even the opposition fans applauded good football. He got a very generous reaction from Blues fans.
I was right behind the goal when Possee scored for Millwall. I remember 16 year old Trevor Francis was playing for Birmingham that day, too. 3-0 to Wall!
Its great to watch these players some great goals,and i played on pitches like the really bad ones regularly, you would not put cattle on them,just shows the skills of these lads to pass the ball around on them.
Be nice, I didn't even notice that the person who posted this video was the one who said that Lampard's been around for a while. Cuz if If I did, I'd recognise the sarcasm right away.
Bobby Kerr's crisp, full volley. Easily. (Anyone know which did win btw?) A few comments joking about the mud but, seriously, I think a return to those conditions might help shake off the sterility and predictability of today's game.
Yes, exactly what I said. Today's pitches of mixed grass & synthetic 'grass' just gets sections wheeled out & repaired. Another major thing is this lightweight ball that flies thru the air & on ground it's more a circus act. It's sped the game up & making great & hard tackles are scarce. Bring back the ball that we used from mid 60s to end of the millennium.
Great to see these goals and the football players. Look at the state of some of the pitches that were featured - didn't worry the players one bit though - wonder how some of the 'handbag fairies' in the Premier would have dealt with that? --- they might have got their brightly covered boots muddy ! --shame!
Good to see British players playing for British clubs unlike the foreign mercenaries we have now. Playing for their club actually meant something to them, it wasn't all about money or gaining a reputation so you could go to a Spanish club.
Good spot. Had a great first touch. That confidence to be cool in front of goal. Good with diving headers too. Thirty million player now. Died so early.
The 1960s and 1970s were good times and some people wish They could relive those days and I still wish I could play proper physical football on muddy pitches again But some elements of the 1970s should stay buried in the past
Never seen Leeds in red before. Given the quality of the goal and the 7 on his back, I would have sworn that was George Best if you'd shown it to me from the other side of a bus window during a freak hailstorm.
I always used to stand.. Much more fun. but could get awkward when some idiots wanted a bit of bovver. And in those days the police were just as bad. :(
I miss proper mens football so much compared to the diving, shirt pulling, whinging overpaid foreigners we have today. They would refuse to play on those pitches in case their shirt got dirty or some mud in their hair.
There are plenty of anti-racists in this country also, and plenty who are sickened by attitudes such as those expressed by so-called Christians on this blog - I'm surprised youtube have allowed such rubbish
@Gary Faircloth that's simply not the case. Young South American players do not get work permits unless they are established internationals. They don't have this problem in Spain or Portugal, where they are also more likely to share a language. If South Americans are good enough,the top Premier League teams will (try to) buy them. It's nonsense to claim that the PL 'can't attract them', which is why so many of the Brazil and Argentina international team either play here or used to.
Over 50 years ago 😢 great footage. The state of those pitches, like a mud bath some of them.
I loved the way Lorimer celebrated...just walked slowly with his hands in the air!
Thanks for posting this! The good old days of football with real characters and players who had genuine talent - even more so to play on those pitches! Fantastic video!
Love those old kits, no unsightly advertising all over them
Good old fashioned football. Love the outfits they were using
What a goal by Kerr!
Best one of the lot i thought
I was at that game as Blues season ticket holder. It was a time when even the opposition fans applauded good football. He got a very generous reaction from Blues fans.
Lorimer's goal superb !
Every kit.
Epicz
Good English Mud. Those were the days when your school football pitch was the same as your team and no parents on the sidelines.
Brutal editing...love it
George Best turning defenders inside out , pure talent..
What a goal from bobby kerr, take that!
Thanks for the upload,a time when you knew the players were on the same ground as your self.
Imagine today's prima donnas on those pitches, how times change! It just shows how talented players were back then.
They would be infinitely superior...
I was right behind the goal when Possee scored for Millwall. I remember 16 year old Trevor Francis was playing for Birmingham that day, too. 3-0 to Wall!
Freeborn John I was at that game
who remembers millwall…. but trevor francis…… legend
I was also at that match, heartbreak at the end of the season v Preston.
@@boblowe9037 Millwall... Biggest small club in the world. Fact
Trevor was my school boy hero when he came to forest 🏆🏆
Bobby kerr. Gentleman. legend.
Love the music😉⚽
Love Derek Possee, I was there when he scored the Goal of the season for 72 - awesome goal.
Its great to watch these players some great goals,and i played on pitches like the really bad ones regularly, you would not put cattle on them,just shows the skills of these lads to pass the ball around on them.
Proper footballers, no diving, cheating or bemoaning to referee's .
Leeds always cheated.
Fuck me but Frank Lampard's been round a while.
That's the Senior Lampard.
No shit, mate.
Be nice, I didn't even notice that the person who posted this video was the one who said that Lampard's been around for a while. Cuz if If I did, I'd recognise the sarcasm right away.
Alex Lindsay Sorry, Alex. I was mean. Wish you well.
that made me laugh :D
3:50 Harry Redknapp takes the free kick that leads to Frank Lampard Sr's goal!
R.I.P Great Uncle
Bobby Kerr's crisp, full volley. Easily. (Anyone know which did win btw?)

Pure footnall.Magic
Brian Moore caught out a few times when camra pans back to him! LOL. Good old times.
@John Smith. Yeah I was wondering what he was doing with his hands under the desk. 😂
Look at the state of the pitches back then, barely any of todays players wouldn't cut it on those pitches in the winter months
Pitches in those days really tested the skill of a player.
Today's pitches are just boring & takes the risk & jeopardy out of games. Mud. Love it on football strips & shows tackling.
Filmed before Brian Moore's head looked uncannily like London Planetarium.
That Bobby Kerr goal though
George Best was a really good footballer

Bravo. You had to adapt then or perish.
Frank Lampard looks like his dad
frank lampard in 1972, really? Is fake not 1972
Good to see British players playing for British clubs unlike the foreign mercenaries we have now. Playing for their club actually meant something to them, it wasn't all about money or gaining a reputation so you could go to a Spanish club.
What like non-British mercenary Gareth Bale?
@@PNETriffid What the fuck has that got to do with the 70's you dick
@@battlewaterloo Precious little I admit.
@@PNETriffid I am shocked! A polite person on the internet. I take back the insult. I should stop drinking whisky and going online
Thanks be that we could enjoy the skills of Denis Bergkamp and Thierry Henri.
Lorimer's goal was superb - don't know who won but I hope it was his.
Derek possee goal for Millwall won it.
Football was so much better then. Sublime first touch from Osgood before his goal
Good spot. Had a great first touch. That confidence to be cool in front of goal. Good with diving headers too. Thirty million player now. Died so early.
@@peterh1353 30 million for the bad leg,
Possee........what a goal...
Hot Shot Lorimer
Had the hardest shot in the business back then 👍
What was the fanfare music?
He's here, he's there, he's every fuckin' where, Bobby Kerr, Bobby Kerr!!!
RIP Chris Garland
Yes and a great goal here too.👍
My god, the resemblance of Frank Senior and Junior, lol
Derek possee goal for Millwall won the golden goal.
Mud has become extinct in the Premiership.
3:47 Is that Harry Redknapp by any chance?
Shane Collis
Sure is.
....close between the Sunderland goal and the Huddersfield Town goal....
.....whatever happened to the good old goal mouth scramble...?
Bobby Kerr
Peter lorimer
Glory glory!
Jimmy greeves .martin chivers spurs supreme
3:47 the real frank lampard :p
Bobby Keer's was special
the mud !
martin tyler, this is how you commentate on matches......
No tippy tappy nonsense. Great direct footy.
Little bit London bias there ?
.....you could identify with players in those days....well they were British.....where did it all go wrong...
We'll give it to Georgie. Come on lads....it's George Best.
He's not happy tho, just doesn't want to be there yet can't stop his modus operandi of not passing & scoring great goals.
yep probably itv lwt cameras dont loose any sleep over it it was early 70s
Came here for Chappy :)
The 1960s and 1970s were good times and some people wish They could relive those days and I still wish I could play proper physical football on muddy pitches again
But some elements of the 1970s should stay buried in the past
Peter osgood so good
Wow Frank Lampard Sr. Was in this video😂😂😂
Love the Chelsea end at Spurs
Yeah, that was phenomenal.
Lorimer's clearly the best
Never seen Leeds in red before. Given the quality of the goal and the 7 on his back, I would have sworn that was George Best if you'd shown it to me from the other side of a bus window during a freak hailstorm.
Les Chapman's goal Vs Fulham is best of the lot.
No sponsorship plastered all over the shirt
Goal keeper's with no gloves. Real football.
Y si, es todo un tema
Who's that team they call the CHELSEA!
Why were the pitches so very awful?
bobby kerr screamer!
Hola, Héctor
Great to see the old stadia, apart from anything else.
Mind you, I didn't have to sit in them....
I always used to stand.. Much more fun. but could get awkward when some idiots wanted a bit of bovver. And in those days the police were just as bad. :(
@ExplainableSuperGuy lol its frank lampards dad
Two generations of Frank Lampards.
Big chiv
Note the difference between Bobby Charlton at 35 and Zlatan Ibrahimović at the very same age! And I don't mean hair.
And Bobby looked the same at 65
I got it. One had a World Cup and a Ballon d'Or and the other didn't.
0:10 - Trophy looks like it was bought at Poundland LOL
Real football.
You forget that Chelsea kicked chunks out of the notoriously filthy Leeds side over two games in the 1970 FA Cup Final. :)
No only in the second game.
Derby and Nottingham are in the Midlands.
Wimbledon embarrassed Leeds who only survived because of an"own goal
.
Frank Lampard?!?
A Frank Lampard 'Special' ? Really? I don't recall him scoring many and when he did they were hardly 'Specials' LOL
he scored the winner in the 1980 fa cup semi final replay against Everton that's pretty special
If he didn't score many, when he did score it was " special ", that too confusing for you me old mucker?
More goalkeepers should weat hats !
Bowler hats would look good on English goalkeepers (now an endangered species in the Premiership). Top hats could be useful against being chipped.
I think they were all British players no foreigners
yea I'm no rascist but I wish we could go back to thpse days.British football for British footballers!
If we did go back to that the English game would be all the poorer. Clubs don't care where you're from - you get results, you get the big bucks.
I noticed the wonderful Clyde Best
A bit London biased.
I would love to have been able to play on a modern-day pitch, but, alas, it was never to be, just mud and sand in the goalmouth or even grit.
time travels are real......frank lampard snr/jnr are the same person
just like hardy krüger
Peter was good.
The terrible state of the pitches. No wondervthey had so many long range shots
I miss proper mens football so much compared to the diving, shirt pulling, whinging overpaid foreigners we have today. They would refuse to play on those pitches in case their shirt got dirty or some mud in their hair.
Did the late Brian Moore have a flu, because his nose was blocked?
And then...'diversity'...and WHO has caused 'diversity'? And has it been good?
Yeah.... football's got a lot better since then...
Said no one sane ever
There are plenty of anti-racists in this country also, and plenty who are sickened by attitudes such as those expressed by so-called Christians on this blog - I'm surprised youtube have allowed such rubbish
1972 lampard masih bocah this fake
Not very spectacular
some of the keeping here is laughable
And no gloves
British football in the days before it was surrendered to black African players
fran levy racist
Spectacular trolling. Well done you!
Martin chivers spurs hero and legend
So, if Pele and Jarzinho had signed for an English team in 1971 ? Racist idiot
@Gary Faircloth that's simply not the case. Young South American players do not get work permits unless they are established internationals.
