Gloucester Saint Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago (edited) Didn’t seem to fit on an existing thread but it popped up in my YouTube feed and some of the matches I knew of but hadn’t actually seen before. It runs from Leeds away 1966 to late 1980s although most of the coverage is 1985 or before. I started watching 1983/4, quite a bit there but it was the late 1970s footage I’d not seen in any many cases. Especially a 3-3 comeback draw at Burnley with a last minute equaliser by David Peach prompting a superb line from Barry Davies as the players swamp David Peach ‘and they all want a bite of Peach 🍑’. More innocent days… Interesting that only two of the 1976 Cup winning team were around for the 77/78 promotion winning side (Peach and Holmes). Nicholl and Allardyce exchanging goals at Roker Park. Sunderland hammered at the Dell in 1975. Who was there for some of these games then and and what are your memories? Hope you enjoy watching this as much as I did! @Holmes_and_Watson your hero scores quite a few on here. And Steve Moran’s debut goal. Edited 4 hours ago by Gloucester Saint 2

Certain there’s footage I’ve never seen before and the quality is very decent. Other details I noticed are the barking dogs at the Chelsea game. My parents lived near the Dell prior to buying a house in Woolston and remember saying there was loads of trouble before, at and after that game. Also McCalliog’s free kick v Bradford in front of their original main stand and a response to our celebrating away fans audible of ‘you’re going to get your fucking heads kicked in’. Their Ointment Crew was one of the most notorious in the lower leagues. Edited 4 hours ago by Gloucester Saint
