We were poor that season but having watched these highlights the 1980/81 side would still beat today's bunch.

The pace looked slower, both sides seemed to get more time on the ball than in today's game

Late nights , beers , steak and chips , curries , poor diet , poor training . That's 2025 / 16 sakes as 1980/ 81 .not much as changed at BDTBL over them years.

Forgive my youthful ignorance by the way

Must have been at this game, can't remember it though. I thought we were great, I was about 12 though. I was outraged when they sacked Peters. It was like I'd been brainwashed by some crazed religious sect. Come to think of it, of my h has changed

None at the time, it came later though when he said we should be relegated for that abandoned West Brom game.

You'll never walk alone from the kop.
