A brilliant watch.... thanks for posting this. Love the van the fans travelled down to london in, hilarious.

I'm watching it now. I'm up to the part where Labone says "when you play away, it's up to the home team to take the point from you. If you get a point away and 2 at home, that's championship form"

I can understand that in the 60's but not in present times now its 3 for a win.

Moyes was daft playing away for draws sometimes

If you win all your home games and draw your aways, thats 76 points, we would have finished 3rd.

This is a must see.

I think the BBC denied they'd even kept the tape for donkeys years.

My dad mentioned him, said he's been in a few things. Harry Cross from Brookside is funny as well I think.

Is right mate, Bill Dean, very funny guy

also known to some as one of the warders from the lovely film "Scum"

MickM86 · June 14, 2013

Oh yea he was in Scum wasn't he! I remember him in that as well.

It's mad to think this was nearly 50 years ago!

My Dad was born in 1948 Pat so this was his era. Alan Ball was his idol and his biggest regret was not meeting him. He went the games in the 60s/70s/80s went to a couple in the 90s but doesn't bother now. "It's not the same" he says haha.

He actually mentioned this show to me but he just described the opening scene. Then I found it and he was made up.

Makes my heart melt when that little girl says her dad is Alex Young and he plays for Everton.

yeah it's well before my time but I love stuff like this

the generation before me, like me dad and his mates all loved alan ball from that era

but the generation previous, say my grandads and what have you, all seem to say alex young was their fave,

would loved to have watched the toffs during that time, great days so it would seem
