There's a chance they may be available as torrents at some point, although they won't be allowed to put them on here.

Forgot about this, has it been on?

 

Yes, Keegan scored 4, a young lad who only played a couple of time scored the other (Kevin Todd?) with a cross & someone from the crowd jumped on his back. It was Terry Mc's debut (second time around) & Emlyn Hughes played for them. I think they also missed a penalty. lol.

Watched some of the Brighton game Thursday dinnertime. Great stuff. The atmosphere was amazing, with the gallowgate crowd swaying all over the terraces and people standing on the barriers.

Chants of "Keegan,Keegan" made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. They interviewed him, pitchside at the end of the game. He was bedecked in Toon scarves and he looked very emotional.

Can't believe he ever signed for us in the 1st place, so soon after twice being European footballer of the year. After years of s**t, a real star came to our club.

Going to watch it again Sunday. Between 6 and 9pm there's a run of about 4 consecutive Toon games, including the Fairs cup final.

Happy Days.

 

I like the ESPN synopsis - Only 36,000 turned up to watch the likes on Keegan, Waddle & Beardsley. What they should have said was - It was bloody heaving & if you didn't get their early you wouldn't get in.
