Of all the books I've read so far this has been the easiest and quickest to read. Just 220 odd pages of well written footballing history by an excellent and...
It seems logical to follow the story of Don Revie's career, with that of Brian Clough's spell at Leeds United (the subject of Damned United), though in reality...
... Is it as good as 'The Unforgiven', which I thought would have been the definitive book on LUFC of the Revie era? ... I'm always puzzled by Malcolm...
... Good question, I haven't got this book, so I need to get it. ... Whilst I won't disagree that he wasn't great as the England manager, surely Graham Taylor...

Hi everyone, Just a reminder you to come and visit the Sixties and Seventies Soccer Group at Yahoo. If you have heard some news of the stars from the 60s and...
Was David Harvey a better goalie than Gary Sprake? Discuss. Bob ... ____________________________________________________________________________________ Low,...
Well Bob,I was in the Kop end,by mistake (!) the year after he threw the ball into his own goal....he had a blinder that night,the night Leeds drew 0-0 and...
I visited Aldershot in the old fourth division in (I think) 1964.We scored first and lost 4-1.To-day with the fourth largest Conference crowd ever (just over...
That was not his only bloomer. The first season Palace played Leeds in the First Division, we were behind until about the 89th minute. In an act of almost...
I don't think the reply I made for this got sent, so I'll say it again. To be honest I don't think either goalie was that excellent - better than me, of...
Give us an idea Bill! Surely they must have been used to Gary's "bloomers"; by then. How long after that did Harvey start taking over between the sticks? Who...
At a guess I can imagine most of the words started with F & C. I would imagine Bremner & Clarkie had a few choice things to say in the dressing room as well. ...
Mick Jones? ... Well for a couple of years he was selling sports clothes on market stalls in South Yorkshire. Now, like most of the Revie team, he does ...
Just for the record, etched in my heart, the Palace final stats for 1969/70 were: Played 42 Home W5 D6 Lost 10 Away W1 (who?) D9 L11 27pts Stoke who played...
Just for comparison, Palace's total of 27 equates with 33 under the new system, in 42 games. In 2004/5 WBA stayed up with 34 from 38 games.... Bloody...
Unfortunately for Leigertwood he will go down in Palace folklore as the twat who give away the silly free kcik at Charlton. It was a stupid free kick to give...
good luck to them.United have half a team of useless left foot merchants who are cack footed or whatever the word is..........Richardson is amongst the worst i...
I am sure all of you who went to matches remember the Football League Review that used to appear in some programmes in the late 60's. Personally I alwats...
Likewise from me, many thanks for those. I should mention that there are some pictures in the 'files' section which include Football League Review team photos,...
As mentioned yesterday, I have now added a photo album called Team Photos. All of which are taken from the above Magazine over the period of 65 - 68. The year...
Whilst trawling through the Charlie Buchans for the team photos, I remembered how enthralled I used to be as a teenager by the colour action photos. This was a...
the other chelsea /united is i think......... Stepney Baldwin Tony Dunne and Joe Fascione.......i was at the game which finished 1 1 if the date is right ...
