dusan nikolic Posted January 6, 2022 Posted January 6, 2022 The return game against Forest at Burnden in 95/96 . De freitas scoring a screamer and Colin Cooper with his Bogey man act . Quote

Johnnyrotten Posted January 8, 2022 Posted January 8, 2022 Hard to tell from that but there was a cracking atmosphere, biggest crowd of the season hoping for a giant killing. 14k was about 3k more than the biggest in the league. The Lever End was packed and in great voice, at least for the first half. Lee Chapman made his debut for Sunderland, and scored. Quote
Farnywhite Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 Don’t know if this as been put on before . Saying it’s a Sunday might as well put it on Quote

Probably the first time I saw Miami was in there that era. Yoof!! Quote

It's the first I've ever seen of the 1983/4 season. In fact I'd pretty much written off any hope of there been anything of us on film from that year. It's a superb find! Not sure there'd be any other footage of Peter Valentine at CB for us! I was there that day, remember an exceptional following from Sunderland. Think I am correct in saying they were a top flight side at the time and hardly a surprise with names like Paul Bracewell, Lee Chapman, Gary Rowell to their credit. A 0-3 home defeat ... but I'm really chuffed to see this one. Quote

Aye Colin West too. I've looked it up since I saw your post. They finished 13th in Div 1 that year. The defending for all three goals was pretty crap by us but my faint memory of the day was that they were way too good for us anyway. Seem to remember most of the Sunderland following was in the middle section of the Embankment which was unusual. Gate was 14,000 which was a hell of a turnout for that period! Our side was Simon Farnworth in goal; Neil Berry at rb (Brian Borrows must have been injured which would have been a big miss for us); Ray Deakin at lb; Peter Valentine and Gerry McElihinney at cb; Warren Joyce, Neil Redfearn and Steve Thompson in midfield; Jeff Chandler out wide and Tony Caldwell and Wayne Foster up top.

SatanGreavsie Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 Question about old home games I've always wondered. I get that if you go back past the 70s then I'd imagine nothing was necessarily recorded. And I know Dave Higson's commentary gig kicked in at some stage later, and of course if the big boys were there with a commentary then it'll be out there. But take a game I'd love to revisit - stuffing the Filth 3-0 at home in '78 - was there really no recording done? Literally nothing? I mean if it was reported on Granada say the next day were there not shaky commentary-less sequences of the goals shown, taken by some simple set-up in the usual spot? How much is lurking somewhere? Was it never done, or done but wiped (like the BBC with TOTP or DrWho), or is it in a vault somewhere just needing hoiking out? Bloody goldmine if it's still there... Quote

It's similar to Franky Worthy's wonder goal at QPR , a few people are certain it was shown on a sports report ( London Area ? ) but it's never seen the light of day . Quote
Casino Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 It was, definitely, on bbc2 news at about 7pm on the day of the game Same as the chelsea 4 3 defeat There used to be a london game on every week Just the goals Quote
dusan nikolic Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 It's sadly stuck in a vault somewhere I'd imagine . I've heard off a few people it was better than the Ipswich goal. Quote

Wasn’t a bad team we had for Division 3 ( on paper) . Simon Farnworth gave me a fully autographed FRT final programme back in the day , but he's seemed to struggle on any of the footage he appears in . Was he that bad?

Was he that bad? 83/4 was his first season, he'd never made an appearance before that and became our first team keeper very young. My memory is that for a couple of seasons he acquitted himself really well ... but then in 85/6 his confidence shattered, the fans got on his back and he never recovered at Bolton. He did of course go on to make a solid career for himself elsewhere. Quote

Really nice bloke though , spoke to him a couple of years ago about his Bolton days . He didn't have much time for Mr Neal though. Quote
