Has anyone got any footage of the Everton semi final, 2 legs 1978 ?  Ive searched but failed.

 

It'll be on here eventually:

id be very surprised if there wasnt local news footage of the 3-0 against united

 

also, if the beeb ever do similar, qpr, when worthy scored his best ever goal, was filmed

I thought the Ipswich one was his best ever, or was the that the best ever at Burnden ?

he says everybody knows about the ipswich one, but he scored a better one at qpr

 

i think we won 3-1

 

it was back in the days when bbc had a news show about 7pm on the saturday and ended it with the goals from a london league game (not one that was being shown on motd)

 

that day i remembered it just too late and turned over as the football bit was going off

Rembrandt was there (I think)...

Ipswich goal was his best ever televised goal, but the one at QPR would have been goal of the century

did you see it/

 

i vaguely recollect reading or hearing that it was a long range 'chip the keeper' number but id appreciate your account

View from a Chelsea fan:

"It was a grey, cold day and Wanderers led 2-1 as an uninspiring game reached its closing stages, when Worthington, who already had his name on the scoresheet, decided to liven things up. Receiving the ball forty yards from goal, the big striker turned past one mesmerised defender and twisted past another before unleashing an unstoppable shot past Phil Parkes in the Rangers goal. He celebrated with a slide along the turf on his knees directly in front of where I was sitting in the South Africa Road Stand"...

How I remember it was being desperate for a pee after a day on the London ale, and thinking just watch this QPR attack before I pay a visit - as I was just about to set off the ball was played into the feet of Worthy - just outside his own box - he dummied a couple of qpR players and set off on a mazy run, which my memory has him beating about twenty defenders!! before cutting in from the wing and hitting an exocet missile from God knows how far out which rose, dipped and swerved all in one movement before leaving the keeper on his arse (and that was when footballs didnt swerve)- thank god I left it a couple of minutes before going for a pee.

 

But to be honest Frankie scored some beautiful goals in his time at Burnden - just think him and Jay jay in the same team!!!

cheers guys

 

i now regret my forgetfulness even more

The cheeky fucker frank only played for crap clubs, anyhow the 4-3 reverse at Chelsea remains burned in my memory I feel the pain now 36 years later, I also share the writers love of wanting to be Frank I tried to model my game on him as a 14 year old unfortunately failed miserably. ????

If only we had sky in those days!!!!

tis a good point

 

when i hear sub 25s moaning about sky killing football, they really dont know how lucky they are

 

the odd away i missed in my late teens early twenties, i always hoped we drew 0-0

 

hated missing a bolton goal

 

then that granada saturday tea time show came along and we might get 10 seconds after tranmere n stockport!

Actually preferred it with less coverage back in the day gave you more incentive to go and somehow added mystique.

I think bbc have got it right  with the FL show - highlights of 1 game and goals/major incidents from all the others then us senile old buggers can refresh our memories seeing the goals again

Kellett assist today

 

Lovely free kick it was

John McGreal great prospect....

One of three consecutive away games at the start of the season because the Reebok wasn't ready. Sounds like we had a big support down there:

 

Yeah, we did. Probably about 2,500 to 3,000 if I remember rightly. Beardsley was the difference. Shame his legs had gone by Xmas that season.

Busy lads? Haha
