My mother, father, grandfather and grandmother were at that game! *A good* 7 years before I was born. Also remains BHA's most finest noticeable achievement in their history. PS: RIP Motty.

Man, the ambience was top notch in those days. Wow!

GFC Videos, Thanks for this first game of the 1983 Cup final. Great game and good performances from both teams, especially Stapleton and Stevens.

Good day. Thank you so much for the nice video. Bravo! Enjoyed and liked of course. Greetings and gratitude from country Azerbaijan

Such prophetic words from Jimmy Hill at 1:17:25 just before the Wilkins goal.

John Motson: "It's Smith! And Bailey saves."

I recall watching this on live telecast with family and friends at my aunt’s place.

Cracking game,great times for soccer. Amen.

Don’t forget the helicopter ride to Wembley for the Brighton players before the game

1:17:54 Beautiful from Ray Wilkins

He was a classy player. Dean was a wonderful striker of the ball as well, his brother.

Many thanks

Remember watching this when i was only 9 years old, Brighton shoulda won really, was a good final. And was at a time when most players were from Britain except Bailey and Arnold Muheren, not like today when most players are not, will never happen again. And Smith must score!!!

La bise from France 😎.

The first match was the best one as was the Palace Final but always dvds only show highlights of the 1st match whilst the replay is in full but disappointing.
