Love Barry Davies' commentaries, so much better than nearly all the ones we have to suffer now. His one for Gazza's SF free kick is legendary - 'School Boy's Own stuff!'
I was there for that and the one vs Forest. What a player.
Forest was 27th October 1979 and Man U was 1st Dec 1979. Five weeks apart. Legend.
Legend.
Agreed.
I am very happy that I was able to see him live in Frankfurt on March 17th, 1982!
(Even if he scored the decisive 2:1 against us!)
How could I have guessed that i.a. his performance made me adore this club 40 years later?

Anyone think he'd have stuck with Conte's automations.? Not sure, but him and a few other men are WHY I support Spurs. Of the current side....not so much
Yeah agree. The automations are fine but there needs to be a few players that ‘go on feel’ and make their own decisions. Watching Sporting, they have two or three quite classy players that are happy to out their football on the ball, or beat a man and a lot a ball.Anyone think he'd have stuck with Conte's automations.?

Hoddle , Hazard , what a delight ! How we could do with a bit of that entertainment now . Wonderful footballers .
Have just read (message from October 28th, 2022) that Glenn Hoddle is doing better!
If that is correct, then for me this is the most important news of today in terms of sport!

Probably wouldn’t have been picked to playAnyone think he'd have stuck with Conte's automations.? Not sure, but him and a few other men are WHY I support Spurs. Of the current side....not so much
Fantastic goal when we played such attractive football (and we actually won the odd trophy by doing so). Reality is the goal would probably have been ruled out these days because the wankers in the VAR booth would have drawn their silly lines on the screen and ruled Falco’s nose as being offside or something as equally daft

When Hoddle found Jesus, it must have been a great pass !!
And along comes VAR in the form of Judas Escariot.
Werent they enterered( 1 each) in both BBCs and ITVs goal of the season that year?
And my three favourite goals of all time (in no particular order) are still vs. Forest, vs. Man Utd and vs. Watford.
