Look at the passion and remember that the Charity Shield was like every other cup match then...it meant everything. Thanks for this.

Celtic fan, cannot believe how much football has changed and not for the better.

I was born in Leeds in 1967.... As a kid you support your local team... in my 3rd year of middle school (Cowper Street Middle School) we had football matches between Leeds and Liverpool supporters... I tried so hard to play for Leeds but my school friends didn't want me... the Liverpool side said I could play with them.... now I'm 52 years old living in Italy and enjoying all Liverpools victories... (still keeping an eye on United though) 😁

RIP to my cousin Brian Hall, number 8 for Liverpool. New Zealand didnt have the games on Telly back in the early 70s, so we had to listen to the radio or wait for a highlights reel on the news. Liverpool were fantastic, and the players were all household names ( even in a Rugby mad NZ ) All my mates didnt belief that Brian was my cousin. ‘Sweet As mate’.

It was also good to see a lot of respect at the ref,unlike today where a lot of players will try to bully and intimidate him.Although of course, not every game was perfect, especially this one.

Women and children in the standing areas were a rarity due to the violence. Duncan Mckenzie cost £240,000 from Forest at a time when a decent house cost about £10,000.

Absolutely nothing at all was done to stop it. Are you trying to tell me that that situation continues today? What's better, you ask? I could take my elderly mother or grand children today in relative safety. Same couldn't be said for the 70's and 80's, when football grounds and their surrounding areas were an absolute free-for-all. I'll freely admit that I got involved as a teenager and as a young man and it was incredibly exciting: but it was selfish fun that was killing the game.. Remember ugly fences and people getting crushed to death? Crowds were starting to dwindle and there was an air of decay and apathy by the time the Hillsborough disaster happened. Things needed to change.(Sadly not all for the better, I'll admit) Yes, many things were better back then but certainly not everything; a lot of it was shit Nostalgia is a liar that you should be wary of.

O futebol inglês nessa época tinha mais velocidade e dinâmica que o futebol brasileiro

Too young to remember this but seeing The Damned United a few years ago you realise there was a lot going on at Elland Road in a great era of football. Great upload 👍

The two best teams in England at the time, miles ahead of the rest. Since the decline of Manchester United, in the previous seven seasons, Leeds had been top dogs, having won a trophy or been top 3 of the league every year - five trophies in total - but were just past their best. Liverpool, were on a path towards their best, and would easily surpass the achievements of their rivals and would go on to be top 2 in the league or win a trophy for the next 17 years, including ten league titles, four European Cups, four League Cups and three FA Cups. Occasionally, others would poke their noses into the mix - Derby, Nottingham Forest, Everton, Arsenal and Aston Villa, but it was only the re-emergence of Manchester United that ended the "L" years...

99% true. The last bit isn't though. Man Utd didn't end the Liverpool years. Both Arsenal and Leeds won the title in between Liverpools 1990 title and Utds 1993 title. Liverpool were already in decline before Utd became top dogs.

@@lyndoncmp5751 quite true - though neither dominated in the same way as Leeds (for a short time) or Liverpool did - they were both "poking their noses in" clubs like my examples during the years roughly 1970-93, namely Derby (2 titles), Notts Forest (one title, two European Cups, two League Cups), Aston Villa (one title and one EC) and Everton (3 titles, one FA Cup and one Cup Winners Cup). I did mention Arsenal (3 each of titles FAC and LC, one CWC and one Fairs Cup, forerunner of UEFA/Europa, but spread over 25 years). Apart from Arsenal, with 11 trophies, none of the other clubs managed more than five trophies in a 25 year period. Compare this to Liverpool's 25 in 20 years 1973-93 and Manchester United going one better with 26 in 1993-2013

@@christopherspark960 Well thats all true. Can't disagree there. Was just saying that Liverpool were nosediving pre Utd emergence and they didn't stop Liverpool winning any titles in the early 1990s, as Liverpool weren't in the running for the title after 1991. Liverpool finished 6th or 8th in 1992 as I recall. Cheers.

Clough's first match as Leeds manager...Shankly's last game as Liverpool manager. Steve Heighway was my hero until Liverpool signed Kenny.

Didn't know Eric Idle had a broadcasting career as well.

As a big leeds fan , When Revie left, leeds were in decline , i Think if John Giles had taken over, the spirit would not have gone out the Club , And that for me was the difference here ,,once Revie left the spirit went

A lot of comments about how unspoilt football was back then. But that Admiral logo on the Leeds shirts represents the first kit sponsor in the English league and started the commercialism we have to put up with these days.

Tommy Smith ! What a legend ❤
