Check out the smoke bomb on the first goal, actually scored by Maybank.

Great stuff, I'm just wondering how you are getting around the copyright issues regarding the footage you are posting on the site.

I know from working in television that someone will own the rights!! Its always best to check as content owners are starting to pull their weight in this respect.

I personally think alot of this content should be free but I'm just pointing the fact out.

The best waste of 7:02 I have found in ages, thanks for the clip.

The analysis at the end of the clip over at what point the keeper lost sight of the ball due to the smoke bombs thrown from the south stand is brilliant.

I hope the owners of the copyright do not care enough to bother you or ask you to remove them. I always like it on Soccer AM when they give the prices of clips often £2-£4 grand to show bits of films and football games, to explain why they do not show and pay them.

He get's round them by ignoring them I presume.

Yeah, that's true! Has anyone got any other clips from this era?

I am still trying to get hold of the 1983 FA Cup Final build-up and the 1984 FA Cup 2-0 win over Liverpool (full 90 mins)!

Great stuff on your site. Amazing to remember that we were once Liverpool's bogey team!

I got told about the smoke bomb and the goal ages ago, but I didn't believe it untill now because my mum and dad don't remember it happening.

I'd like to add that Peter Sayer looks like such a skillful and tricky player, judging from this game and the Orient 3-3 game. Was he?

They quite obviously do care, else there wouldn't be any copyright would there.

Not that I give a jot to be honest, but there is MASSIVE difference between uploading something not commercially available against something that very very much is.
