I watched this video to death as a kid. Some of these commentaries are lodged in my brain forever.

Grudging admiration from a United fan!! 87/88 season we were 9 points behind Liverpool but in football terms we were light years away from the stuff they played that season.

Dave Waller I watch them Dave!! Sitting in a dark room rocking back and forth!! Only joking!! I would rather watch Liverpool videos about this era than United today. I watch all clubs videos from the 70’s and 80’s because that’s my football. Plus Liverpool played some wonderful stuff back then. Even though we normally got the better of you in the games we played you always took the prizes at the end of the season!!

After the games on the 5th of March 1988, Liverpool were 17 points ahead of Man Utd with 2 games in hand. For the rest of the season, Man Utd had 8 wins and 2 draws, whereas Liverpool had 4 wins, 6 draws and 2 defeats.

I watched this on VHS endlessly when I was a kid. Absolutely adored it. The choral version of YNWA for the funeral mass after Hillsborough (around the 1 hour 11 minute mark in this video) is still the most beautiful version I've ever heard of it. Incredibly moving.

I'm a Newcastle fan but I had this on VHS as a kid and I loved it! I watched it thousands of times. What a decade to be a liverpool fan. Looks like the new decade may open new doors for Liverpool.

Dave you beauty - thanks!!!

Nice one, bringing back the memories this

Watched this constantly growing up, always looked for it on You Tube. Music is boss.

When I was a teenager this was a Friday night staple for me. I used to wish the clock could be reversed from the 90s (remember them 🙁) to the 80s when Liverpool were ascendant. Thanks to Jurgen Klopp we might be doing exactly that. And thanks to you, Dave, I was wondering when this video might appear, you've made my day. YNWA!

A wonderful documentary, beautifully written and produced, Gerald Sinstadt the narrator. When the BBC knew how to do things.

Brings back memories

I used to have this VHS, I think it's still in my parents house. I used to watch this video religiously when I was a kid. What a fantastic team it was.

Had this on VHS as well. The second goal against Wolves in 1980. It was such a typical Liverpool goal with the third player running off the ball. Absolutely brilliant.

Me too! I was 9 at the time. I couldn't believe that the Reds lost to the Crazy Gang. I was convinced that Aldridge was going to score the penalty; didn't hold it against him though as he was a legend! Hardly any of Liverpool's players played to their potential on that day which is the thing that disappointed me the most about the game. That said, the beauty of sport is that sometimes the underdog grasps their moment in the spotlight - Wimbledon certainly did that.

Paisley always rated the 1979 team as the best he coached. I always rated the 1988 team as the best Liverpool side I saw. They'd have beaten PSV just like Everton would have beaten Bucharest. The fact neither team did was the price that had to be paid. Whilst Heysel was Liverpool and their fan bases fault, UEFA was also culpable to a degree. The game has recovered, but Liverpool, Man United and all the other teams who have had success are puppets for US hedgefunds and oil money. I watch videos like this to remind me of what football should be.

Cup football has fine margins. The best team over the season can easily have off days. 3 finals in each decade and some semi finals isn't *that* bad but it is odd that Paisley never won while sweeping the board in every other competition.

Would it be fair to say that football became more uneven after the Premier League started so the best team was further ahead of the rest and therefore less likely to slip up in the cups? I'm sure that's true now (when clubs take cups seriously) but maybe not in 1994/1996 when you started winning doubles?
