I only went to one game in the 74-75 season. Paid 50p for my kids ticket at the baseball ground. Derby 2 Liverpool 0. How times have changed.

Love to see today's players attempt it on some of those pitches. Also be fun to see today's "hooligans" try it on with the 70's nutters.

So nice to hear Status Quo at the end.

God, but the state of the pitches in those days was abysmal.

Certainly was a very different game back then. The big money that's in the game today didn't exist back then so it was poor stadiums and facilities along with sub-standard pitches. And it was an all-British league, very few foreigners. The games do look very entertaining though and seem to be of a good standard. And it was a much more open competition. Pretty much everyone had a chance to win unlike today where it's the same 3-4 big money clubs that dominate.

English football has aways been multinational; Scots, Irish, Welsh, commonwealth and a few eastern europeans made the clubs in the seventies strong. But modern Premier League teams struggle to include even one Englishman in their starting line up. The sideways passing is chronic. The new sterile stadiums have turned English football into a corporate day out. The three-foreigner rule should be brought back. You can see what teams entirely made of foreign players in Serie A has done to the Italian national side.

Why I don't go any more mate - you're so right. It makes me desperately sad to think what happened to my football experience and I've said it many times, I'd swop following United in the 70's for the noughties at the drop of a hat.

How many of today's prima Donna's would have played on pitches like the old base Ball ground and how many would have survived a Tommy Smith Norman hunter or Trevor hockey challenge

so man u were playing on the pitch and tommy off it hahahaha

Willie Morgan and Kevin Keegan separated at birth.

Don't want to sound like an old git, but football really was unpredictable back then. No such thing as the big four, and any unfashionable club with a good manager was in with a chance of winning the league. Pitches like swamps and players allowed to tackle. Plus, only the very best players were paid well. Now, ordinary footballers who aren't fit to tie the laces of some of these greats, being paid a fortune. I'd like to order a time machine to take me back to the mid-70's please!
