  • Poor keeping for newcastles 2nd
  • losing 2-1 sort it out Nelson!!
  • Love seeing the geordie fans applaud martin robinson's goal. Crikey, the pitches were bad in those days, no fertilisers used back then.
  • The phone on the desk is brilliant
  • Compare the defence we had then with today's. Forgot how bad they were.

  • Was that the 5-3 game? Great goal from Robbo that day!
  • Always remember singing "....can you hear us on the box" when the cameras were there.
  • I loved the whole show ,I'd forgotten that Danny Blanchflower briefly managed Chelsea and didn't Ray Wilkins look young in the interview . Petar Borota proved to be an erratic Keeper for them .When we played them the following season when Dick Tydeman scored a flucky cross shot the following season and the Yugoslavian was hopelessly out of position.

    Our game brought back memories Peter Shaw at right back didn't exactly give us options going forward although he did trundle forward for an assist for Robbo's goal.

    Technically the football was much worse than now and the stadiums were crap ,so why do I feel so nostalgic about these times ?
