[Cunny]

Liverpool v Chelsea from 14th December 1986 is on at 1pm today on ESPN Classic (442 on Sky).

Just thought I'd post it for the doleites, skivers, sickies and those 'working from home'

Saw this the other night.

 

"And 'you-know-who' has scored, and you know what that means so I'm not going to tell you, as its becoming the most boring statistic in modern football."

yesterday the times looked at years when teams came from behind to win the title - we were behind chelsea with 14 games to go - chelsea were 3rd, i was surprised they were that high in the 80s

dont know about a teleprompter, but chinny looks like he's reading that off a six foot wide placcard behind the camera

Think I saw this one a few weeks ago.

 

Look out for Venison's potential leg breaking challenge which gets dismissed as a bit of over enthuiasm from a young lad. Changed days indeed!

stevie nicol, you beauty.............

[dorgie]

Would have been one of Jim Beglin's last games for us as it would have been quite soon after that that he had his leg broken by that blues**** Stevens.

Makes you wonder why we have taken 21 years to reclaim the kop. Talk about quiet. No YNWA either

Wasn't the game live on television on a Sunday? I seem to remember in those days the televised games tended to be played in half empty grounds.

We won it that year.

 

Up the blues!!

was defo a sunday, but not sure if all games on sunday's were as poorly attended. I do remember sunday games were considered very alien in those days though - you couldn't go shopping etc like you can today, and it was very much a day where nothing happened at all, very much a family day I think.

 

could be talking poo of course, but that's how i recall it.

No, that was back in the days when locals couldn't afford tickets.

 

I blame Thatcher.

[L19red]

yep it was on a sunday afternoon, and it was freezing.

no-one could get tickets, it was all pay on the gate.
