The Big Match Revisited

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Repeated at 415pm. It was on ITV4+1 too so was on again at 1225 and will be on ITV4+1 at 515 too.

Man too much choice, no excuse to miss this nugget of history, you have saved me buying a radio times, cheers.

No worries! The pleasure of working from home means I can watch gems like this and the TV schedules are only the press of the Sky remote away!

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

I missed it! And I nearly always watch it! Sake! There's nothing on that link to it either any ideas croydon seagull? I'm desperate to watch it

Was he married or going out with one of the Nolan sisters at the time?

Always thought it was Sayer but could be wrong.

Fear not everyone, it's on tomorrow morning (Friday) at 11.30. Sky+ set for the game I was actually at.
Great memories.

 

[deakers]

Also on Sunday morning at 11.45

Teacher Peter Suddaby went out with one of the Nolans - definitive. Lucky man! But deserved anything for the way he turned our first season in Div One round.

.....and not a pair of gloves in sight!! And that includes the goalies!

Wardy had some on in the dugout, along with his sleeping bag. God he looked young! Mind you, so did I in those days.

And Sayer looked a very good player - I don't remember that!

Anyone able to copy it onto DVD for me? My Freeview is not working and it will otherwise be about two weeks before I'll get hold of the digital file....

 

[1swedegull]

total quality the funniest thing was when it was the main match and that Liverpool v Arsenal was just a few highlights ... wardy looked very comfortable in that dugout I think Mullery would have had to prize him out if needed lol

So did we win yet?

I imagine it will appear on this page at some stage in the coming days;

Let's hope so.

And also hoping Newcastle 1 Brighton 3 from 1978/79 is featured next month.

Hear hear to that! I never saw that match - had to listen to it on the car radio when my car broke down in the middle of nowhere (literally) as I was travelling from Edinburgh, where I lived at the time, to see the match.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Mmmm, I'm also currently trying to track down Brighton 0 Crystal Palace 0 from 1978/79. Apparently, that was on the telly at the time, and some Palace fans might have it.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

Bugger I missed it, I'm hoping they'll put the promotion to the First Division on there soon.

 

[Kent Seagull]

Would a programme from this game signed by Mark Lawrenson and Teddy Maybank be worth anything? I have 2 copies and might be persuaded to sell/ebay one of them.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

I found the Newcastle programme at Step Back In Time, on Queen's Road, for £1.50. I reckon that's the most it will be worth, seeing as programmes from 1970s onwards have next to zero money value. I doubt having signatures on it would raise the value by much. Even so, I suppose there might be someone willing to pay a fiver for it as it marked what was probably then the greatest day in the club's history. Good luck, whatever you decide to do with it!
