Thanks for this. I just managed to catch it - they only showed a couple of minutes, but it brought back some memories from that era!

Great to see everyone's favourite Graham Oakey, even if only for a few seconds. And a fine striker's goal from Donal Murphy, who had a lot of ability but maybe lacked something physically.

The preceding game (which I didn't see) had been Man Utd vs Spurs. Gordon Hill being interviewed was amazing - from his style of play in that wonderful Tommy Docherty side, you'd have thought he was a cocky so-and-so, but in the interview he's a quietly-spoken shy little thing! They replayed an incident where a penalty was not given against Martin Buchan for completely missing the ball and absolutely scything someone down at hip level - the ref didn't give it because it was "unintentional" . A red card these days, but he waved play on and was happy with his decision afterwards.

Never a penalty! Those were the days when players could two-foot their opponent in the ribs and not even concede a free kick.
