Brilliant player. I'm amazed they let him go. It's fascinating that he'd clearly imagine a couple of different scenarios that might play out when he was attacking - I guess a lot of the really good footballers do this (having watched a lot of Scholes & Sherringham playing). But you don't hear them describe their thought process like this too often.
What a guy, Merlyn the Magician! I’ve Watched United for over 50 years and that late 70’s team played some of the best football I’ve seen. Thank you so much!
I have to say Im Gobsmacked by this interview. I thought Gordon Hill was gonna be a bit of a jack the lad, How wrong am I. this in my opinion is by far the best one i have seen. Thanks Gordon. Loved you as a player in the 70's, thought you was mint, I remember you going from Man Utd to Derby Not knowing the reason why. Loved your honesty all the way through this interview. You look really well as well may I say & I bet you could still turn out for a charity game or two & still deliver. Thanks again Gordon for a lovely lovely interview. All the very best. (A Sheffield Lad)
Was able to see united for the first time this season and it was fantastic watching hill and coppel on the wing and my hero Pearson fantastic memories I'll take to my grave
I never tire of watching Pearson cracking the ball into the Scouser's net and watching Wembley go absolutely mental with Doc's massive red and white army!!!
We didn't win a lot during the 70s,...but boy did we play some bloody exciting stuff during this decade,...never a dull moment,.....the highlight obviously stopping the scousers do ing the treble in 77,.....great times
@@mrnobodyz Was 16 at the time my gaffer got me a ticket for the 76 cup final from Bert Millichip when he was the West Brom Chairman I think Utd froze on the day.
Merlin was my hero growing up! I always pretended to be him when playing football at school... This was also the era of the best United kits of all time!
I've been United fan since the 60s. So many think that United only came into being under SAF. While the early 70s were dire, there's only ever been United for me.
I always wonder the same & absolutely convinced they’d have won the league & more trophies. They TERRORISED teams. ... Hill, Daly, Coppell, Mcllroy, Macari, Buchan, Albiston and so on & so forth. Ridiculous talent.
Docherty would never have won the league. He actually got us relegated. He was an abrasive personality who rubbed people the wrong way, and fell out with many, including loyal servants like Willie Morgan and Gerry Daly. He could have won the league at Chelsea, but dropped several players after a night out in Blackpool. He said afterwards "It probably cost us the league, but I didn't care. I had made my point." He didn't have the shrewdness to be a league-winning manager.
A great bloke is Gordon - I use to give him a good run around at tennis at Tytherington in the 1990's a really humble person and quite shy, Great interview.
Thoroughly enjoyable and candid interview from Gordon Hill Our Cockney Red. A top player in a top team ,an absolute joy to watch and to this day iam convinced if Tommy Doc hadn`t been fired we would`ve won the league , But unfortunately fate decreed otherwise and we had to wait. But in the end it was well worth waiting for. MUMUFMUFC OK .
In 1977 Manchester United secured a famous win against Liverpool at Wembley in the FA Cup Final. Weeks later, manager Tommy Docherty was sacked, and when Dave Sexton was hired, it is commonly agreed amongst most football fans that the United team never fulfilled its great potential.
sexton was poor! we can only immagine what the docherty team would have achieved if he wsn't sacked which today wouldn't mean a thing just look at what giggs did and john terry and to think the doc is still with that woman today
Sexton dismantled the Doc's team as most new managers do. And he brought Wilkins who became boring stifling every attack by passing sideways. In Chelsea he wasnt like that. Sexton was good at Chelsea in a different era but afterwards he stifled Clubs. A bit morose. The complete opposite to The Doc yet both managed Chelsea. The Doc took a disintegrated Man U of yesterday's men including Best and got rid because they were never going to go voluntarily but kept Stepney and initially Kidd Morgan. McIlroy had just broke thru and kept. Law's back heel was ironic & everyone in football felt for him. Good manager if only he had zipped up!
Absolutely brilliant was Merlin and so was that team from the mid 70’s this was my team growing up such a shame they never stayed together as I think we would have won the league if the DOC stayed. But Gordon I loved him
Excellent viewing. As a City fan I saw Docherty's United quite a few times and the early days of Sexton and have to admit they were a great team and it's a shame it broke up.
I remember walking out of Wembley when we lost the FA cup to Southampton (offside goal) feeling totally dejected. And a random fan said out loud, don’t worry boys we’ll be back next year and we will win. And so we did. Great days!
Interesting that, in '77, United finished 6th in the league. Same as today. Yet there was nothing like the media furore of today, insisting United must do better than this. The perameters have indeed been altered! Great memories though, of the late 70's era with this club.
They were in the second division two years earlier! United had a great first season back in 75-76 but I don't think there was an expectation/demand that they would win the league straight away.
@@HandleGF ...and if Martin Buchan hadn't been injured from October to mid-December 1976. They were top of Division One when he got injured and 15th when he returned after not winning any of the seven League games in that period (drawing three and losing four).
A player who made a massive impression on me - I was a regular supporter at the Old Trafford ground and was 16yrs when he arrived at MUFC used to be in Paddock standing area under main stand and hence was infatuated with wingers - cause he was a Southerner I did not like him when he first arrived due to my youthful naive sentiments - I was narrow minded and under the impression Northerners were the best !!! - he rapidly won me over with his attractive confidence and football he was some player and oozed with confidence and I realised this cocky young cockney was not too bad after all !!! to the point I used to enjoy watching him above all the others - he became my renewed Bestie !!! Gordon Hill was vitally instrumental for the majority of the successful Tommy Doherty era !!!
I remember as a lad watching those 2 FA cup finals, and in the pre match interview in his cup final suite, Gordon did an impersonation of Norman Wisdom. Am I remembering correctly?
When Hilly got the ball the crowd were on their tiptoes cos they knew something special was going to happen. New players should be forced to watch these videos before they sign uo and told this is the standard we expect. Not the modern trash.
6:17 Loved watching this chat, great memories ... but Merlin, it was only 1-0 at home to Stoke & I'm still convinced that late goal was offside (Bloor ? ) !! Then just Leicester (A) Southampton (Cup F) and City (H) ... would have won the flippin Double if we'd won that one. 9:22 Love ya Gord, but Sammy Mc got the Second against City :)

There are plenty of matches that had commentary added on after the event (years after sometimes). Not sure whether that's the case with this clip but it's common enough.

imagine if we had Cloughie at OT? I think he was too big for the directors at the time. I don't think Cloughie was a fan of massaging the egos of the chairmen and directors etc
The biggest mistake in United's history was not going for Clough when Busby retired. We would have dominated the seventies and eighties instead of Liverpool.
yeah fair enough from hill about sexton, but ask ozgood, Hudson, cook at Chelsea and bowles at QPR about the quality football they played there,for the fans of those clubs i know they rave about those sides , also sextons coaching with young England players was second to none , i think he still got man u out of all the managers apart from Fergie closest to the title since Busbie
Under Sexton we saw brilliant performances v liverpool in 77,79,80,81, St Etienne away and in Plymouth, Porto home, City home 78,80 away in 79, Everton 6-2 boxing day (should have been 10). Why didn't he let the team play the way they could, and as for breaking up Docs side...
