The players, the managers, the atmosphere,the old grounds ,the fans ,the coaches,even the pies were all 10 times better than today ! Just proper football ! god I miss it !
Agreed, its a superficial, plastic experience on matchday in stadiums these days. Feels 'middle class' and not like the old days of turnstyles and worn out pitches.
Today's "game" is hugely over rated. Ticky taka football is utterly drab. It does nothing and goes no where. Even kick and rush is more entertaining than the drivel of today
@Sidneyyoungblood75 it's not justbthe style of play. The club game itself is the "battle of the balance sheets". The so called fans are anything but. The internationals are a joke. A bunch of globalists bastardising and perverting national solidarity and pride to spread a more hateful, destructive ideology than Nazism. It's all really disgusting in service of a fane that's no longer beautiful or has a soul.
@Guesswho-qk2kv My live for the game disappeared a long time before Pep. 1998 WC ended it internationally and the Heysel stadium incident at club level. FiFA/UEFA are a poison that have destroyed national leagues the amazingly different approaches nations took to playing football
Grew up to Jimmy hill and Bob Wilson on match of the day,.....football seemed a more simpler uncomplicated game in those days,...no VAR, or greedy agents ruining the game.......just proper players plying their trade on muddy pitches , unlike the perfectly manicured carpets we get today.....miss the imperfections of the old game,from the cold tea and warm beer,....the games been sanitized so much,...it's lost that earthy grittiness we all loved,....miss the old times
That applies to whole of life now. Vacuous behaviour is revered. Piss poor attitudes are praised and rewarded. No such thing as an individual, its all about The State. Lots of money to incompetent people doing jobs that aren't needed, with zero accountability or responsibility. Rules for thee not for me. And it will only be worse although the robots think its created a fairer, equal better world. Delusional
Loved this era in football, the 70s and 80s were great times, proper football , with grounds buzzing,.. and they all had their own quaintess and history.....now the new grounds are all lifeless bowls ,..with no redeeming features or atmosphere... Miss those wonderful times
I and a friend from the States were at Portman Rd for the match versus champions elect Everton. Ipswich were poor at the time which was a shame as a few years earlier had a quality side contending for the title. Memories of a bloody cold day on the terraces.
I left school in 1984 and joined my local football club, Rochdale AFC, on YTS Apprentice forms - Peter Reid's younger brother Shaun was a couple of years older than me and already playing in the first team at "the Dale". Great days - no money, bad pitches, loads of passion... across all four divisions.
Absolutely! Game now is played by pinches of snuff and utter homs. Watched by twats who go, expecting a three course dinner, so they can go stuff their faces at half time.
The quality in today's premier league is on another planet compared to the old days. It's like watching a Sunday league game where there is hardly 3 passes together, the ball was in the air majority of the time or kicked up field
The pitches are a lot different from today´s game. Today´s hybrid pitches are far harder much more flater & faster. If today´s players run like they do on those old pitches they would all have dead legs by half time! Look at today´s lighting compared to 1984. It´s different tatics today, far more pressing, in the old days the defenders never played so high up the pitch.
Your modern game is a bucket of gutless spaff, full of grasping little turds on the field & watched by witless dipsticks off it, who keep supporting their corporate regimes they deludedly think are "clubs", or parts of their communities! They're commodities now
Scottish and Newcastle Breweries. The factory was actually just across the Barrack Road, which was directly behind the location of the camera in that crappy old West Stand. Now Broom Ale is made with pissy water from crappy Tadcaster. Like Cadbury chocolate, it's been ruined by relocation
Dze Godfather Bamenjo yep when football wasn’t played by a bunch of pansies. When the game was real and not played by overrated cry babies and dominated by money
@@nilsatisnisioptimum7886 I was just picturing Mike Dean as ref in this game, surely every player would have been sent off before half time. This football for men
It's amazing how slow the game was back then and the players all look unfit, most of them are carrying too much weight. Not suprising, they all drank 6 or 7 pints every night and smoked 40 Senior Service a day lol.
I used to get the shoot magazine as a youngster (late 70's/early 80's) & in the players Q&A the most popular answer to your pre match meal seemed to be Steak and Chips!! That wouldn't be allowed 3 days before a match now 😄
Teams also had very small squads, and players would play every game unless injured. Two games a week, sometimes more, no such thing as squad rotation, only one sub per team, yet these 'unfit' players could do it, while the athletes of today can't.
@@mrkipling2201 I think if you look at the goal of the month contenders, they are far better now, but people don't realise that MotD could only use goals from the games they filmed, usually two or three a week - and they didn't always cover the best teams each week.

This is my favourite TH-cam channel by a country mile. You should have thousands of subscribers. Thanks again for all your high quality uploads.
And shirts 1-11 the way it should still be in my opinion
Completely! Getting pissed off with 44s & 66s
love seeing how some of the old grounds used to be

Top class upload..thanks
My birthday, literally on the day I was born
day before my 17th
Thank you......Take me back
Proper commentary back then, i turn the sound off now the crp they talk though would like to hear the crowd in the background.
Preferred the game back then. Now it's just greed, hype and yuppie fans
i still call the the premier league the 1st division
Who won the goal of the month?
I liked the Chris Waddle goal ☺
I do miss these days although my team were on Division two at the time proper football
Why were noises being made when Anderson had the ball (Arsenal)
Peter Pacults goal,that's what you call a proper counter attack.
Whot a team Everton where
Where!
In Liverpool?
Adem Bayin When
When the game was beautiful and worth watching,not like the rubbish of today.
The quality is exponentially higher so what the fuck are you talking about?
It's better today, stop living in the past, the sports science has improved greatly, these players couldn't play today's game.
@pbr streetgang Sorry matey but that description is accurate and so sadly equates to rubbish i`m afraid
Absolutely! Game now is played by pinches of snuff and utter homs.

I can smell Panini stickers
Never could complete my albums 😀

At least your wernt bored with the constant pass pass pass in the premier league today. Fed up with pointless stats about nothing in perticular.

@@andrewphippsphillips1455 what a great comment, I totally agree.
No happy boys club like it is today. Plus most clubs had british players. Not over priced carlos kickaballs .
No Kenny Samson in this game - 02:18
Happy New Year 1985! LOL!
Liverpool won the league, European Cup, league Cup, in 1984 but Jimmy says Everton must be the team of 1984 😁
No one cares about the victims. It’s never there fault always the victims.
@@thebeast2746 noone cares about people like you, idiot.
They were judging that on the fact that they won more league points in the calendar year than any other club.
Who is the Newcastle sponsor is it newky brown?
Yup Newky Brown sponsored them from 1980 to 1986
@@dminalba No it wasn't it was Scottish and Newcastle Breweries.
Scottish and Newcastle Breweries. The factory was actually just across the Barrack Road, which was directly behind the location of the camera in that crappy old West Stand.
Now Broom Ale is made with pissy water from crappy Tadcaster.

Terry Curran... more like Terry from Brookie!
No back passing. You'd be sacked for putting your goalkeeper in jeopardy
The day we won at Stamford Bridge 3-1.
Never liked Barry Davies - was constantly critical of players in a way John Motson never was.
I liked Barry Davies. “ look at his face, just look at his face!! “. Brilliant!!
When it was good.
Jimmy Hill football legend, Gary Lineker eat you heart heart out , pay rise do me a favourer.
Ha ha, Pat Van Den Hauwe walking into O’Callaghan after the miss. Would be sent off and pilloried by the media these days. Proper game then.
What's ppl's obsession with " money" in today's game....it's not your's, so what? The game was good then, ands it good now.
Bob Wilson Anchorman
Ipswich on the decline after some great years, Everton on the rise towards a couple of great years, then hit with a european ban.
Wow
All these tackles not given omg

Chinny Hill, lol
JUST GET IT IN THE FUCKING MIXER!

What a prick the OP is
Terrible pitches early 80s
Football is just poor as I remember it. Game has improved so much. Decent surfaces help, of course.
Nothing new with the Geordies, abusing Anderson. Best fans in the World? Give over.
Haha this is so bad compared to the modern game but it's funny.
Guarantee you that 1984 version of Peter beardsley is better than any player in the prem now.
All these people who are saying that the game was terrible back then, yet they’re still watching this!! 🤣🤣
