Loved football from this era, proper games on proper pitches with mud,....loved the cut and thrust of these games full of raw passion and excitement..... miss those great times
One of the best Man Utd/Everton games in my era of being a Blue, and we've had lots of exciting high scoring games against them down the years. United were, and still are, our second biggest game of any season.
Derek mountfield was a centre half we will NEVER see the like of again....a very solid no frills defender....who in that season scored 14 goals !!... headers shots, everything....NO penalties....i remember us beating sunderland at roker park 2-1... and he scored both our goals !!...a tremendous player ✌
@@henryb160 Kendall didn't sell him it was Colin Harvey in the summer of '88. Mountfield lost his place after the signing of Dave Watson in 1986 and hardly played in the next two seasons before he left.
I'm a Villa fan, so, we benefitted from his presence, however, I hear, he'd soil his own fingers around his back side, & put them in opposition players faces (with poss remnants of faeces :( :)) thus keeping his opposition away ! Anyone else heard this? I think I may have read it in some players book, or, autobiography?
I'm not convinced they were underrated! I've heard it said many times that they probably would have gone on and won The European Cup if it hadn't been for Heysel. They were certainly a better team than Steaua Bucharest team that won it in 1986, and the PSV team that won it in 1988.
I'm Chelsea; and not a Glory supporter. I'm from Kensington and Chelsea. I remember the shitty times; in the lower division. However, the Everton team at this time; was superb. Mountfield a fab servant to the cause. Everton broke their neighbours monopoly; even if it was only for a short time. Arguably played better football too.
This game and era shows the premier league as now no better than a game of drafts now VAR can cancel goal celebration's by making decisions after the event. Lucky to have seen so many great games between Everton and United. Though these skills, endeavour and atmosphere seemed regular when games were played Saturday afternoon at 3 pm. How can fans and players raise this type of atmosphere on a Monday night at 8pm? I often recall being inside Goodson in 1964 when Everton and United fought out a 3-3 draw. And in 1966 when George Best gave a great second half display to lay on 2 goals for Denis Law to cancel out Derek Temples earlier goal. And a memorial game at Bolton in 1966 when Everton gave a great defensive display to beat United 1-0 in the FA Cup semi final. Hard to believe that Norman Whiteside would join Everton four years after this game after falling out with Alex Ferguson. And Mark Hughes would sign for Walter Smith when he was at Everton in 2000. And in my opinion Everton gave one of their finest away performance in August 1969 defeating a very powerful United side 2-0 at Old Trafford on a Wednesday night, Ball Kendall Harvey Hurst and Labone were brilliant and I recall applauded off by some United fans near me at full time
I miss the atmosphere, grounds and football from the 1980's. I would take the game from back then over today's rubbish, every time. Just remove the hooliganism. Mind you, in all the games I went to in the 1980's, I probably saw 2 instances of trouble. If you went looking for it, you would probably find it. If you didn't look for trouble, you wouldn't really see any.
As soon as Jim said "your match commentator is John Motson" i turned the sound off. I put the subtitles on , i think the person typing the subtitles was a Dyslexic . Admire Trevor Steven after he was hit with a coin , just rubbed his head and got on with it , not like todays pampered superstars , they would be rolling around on the floor
One of the only good things Alan Brazil did for us in setting up that goal!! Hitting the bar as well!! One of his best games for us. Proper football with a proper atmosphere. This is great. No robbo for us that game as well. Which made our performance even better. We should have won that game. What a team Everton had back then though. Brilliant.
distantvoices I always thought it was strange that after they won the title in 86/87 they wouldn’t challenge for the title again after that. They went from being one of the best teams in Europe in that period from 84-87 then nothing. I think the European ban hurt them more than other clubs to be honest. And it could have gone either way in 85/86 it was that close at one point. Plus West Ham had a genuine shout of the league that season.
That’s what you call a game of Football!...two great teams going at it with the will to win!...(on a pitch that today’s “footballers” wouldn’t cope with playing on).....and Everton went on to be CHAMPIONS! 💙UTFTOFFEES!..
Nice to See David Icke on here, I remember when the media said he was crazy etc just because he had a different opinion to them..They should have listened to him and maybe the country might have been in a prosperous place by now aye ❤
Sure, all his predictions that turned out to be 100% false. He is just a conman profiting from gullible idiots in an age of ridiculous conspiracy theories.
@@tatata1543 and you must be a fool. How many injections did you take .? Do you think soccer will be classified as “essential” when net zero is Implemented?
joyous times!i just cannot see that match of the day being surpassed for a very long time.for us,it used to be every single time that it was on.how has it been thousands and thousands of days since the days of jimmy hill,bob wilson and tony gubba?john motson and barry davies!why did they change everything?never ever change a winning formula!everything used to be so rich,colourful and exotic!
@@meisterlymanu5214 I must admit Jermain Jena's is a superb broadcaster.now he's done something stupid and now we'll never hear him again.just like they did with Ron Atkinson. so many superb voices lost over the years,from TV and radio.ordinary mundane voices are not meant for media broadcasting!
I stood on it once, having not had a ticket for our away end 'Villa', it was absolutely nothing compared to our Holte End, not just on about the size of it either, regarding that, as I entered the top of the Stretford End, I remember muttering to myself, "is that it" being nowhere near as tall, big, imposing or atmospheric as our beautiful 'Holte End' the biggest & the best, there ever was. U T V.
Used to regular in those days ,some great games ,midfield then compared to now ,and the wingers they are looking up who to pass too ,not any more ,its all selfish make me wonder what do the coaches do at United.
Forgot to add how much i loved going to old trafford as a blue, the aggro, fisticuffs😂 being bombarded by missiles when walking past the 'lou macari' chippy 😁...plus the atmosphere....old trafford was so exciting to go to...the noise was f•ckin deafening ✌👍🍻
All depends what you like.Hooligans,crap pitches and ludicrous long ball sky football or the modern tippy tap.Personaly I prefer it now.These 'crazy' games seem thrilling in small doses but the excitement would soon where thin and this was one of the better games from that era.Plenty will disagree.
Bring back the hat wearers I was born in 79 and have my 85 cup final cap somewhere which I remember well but I can't remember league being called the canon league ,a programme that would show that then a 3rd division game and who the fuck was Terry Curran 😁 but he looked game as fuck

Absolutely! I was livid when Kendal sold him. Kevin Richardson and Gray, too.

Great era of football ⚽️ movie's and music 🎶
My 21st birthday that day. Went the game then back for my party. Happy days!!
This Everton team were massively underrated.
Southall was the best keeper in Europe by a mile in this era.
I'm not convinced they were underrated!
I've heard it said many times that they probably would have gone on and won The European Cup if it hadn't been for Heysel. They were certainly a better team than Steaua Bucharest team that won it in 1986, and the PSV team that won it in 1988.
Some tough tackles by some hard cases on both sides, and not one player whinged like today's players. The good old days!.

Remember this one well. Hadn't had a home game in a full month before this. Great atmosphere. Some argy bargy in the United Road after Everton's pen.
Stood on that scoreboard end terrace a few times in the '80's.
God how I miss 'old' football stadia.

@@mrkipling2201Exactly.
Feel like crying watching this, how have we ended up so bad. Utft
Like us mate
Was at this match, good atmosphere & despite mid-season injuries both sides were crammed full of talent.
United Road, Utd Rd, Utd Rd.......
Southall was so very very good.
Ski hats in the crowd! Love it!
We all had 'em!
So this is what football looks like without VAR 😀
Ahh those were the days. 💙💙💙

@distantvoices won the title in 87 get it right ha
@@mrkipling2201It didn't help that Andy gray was getting too many injuries and was sold. Also 3 pissed off out of the club. Steven, Stevens and Reid.

What a frantic match. John Motson had it right at the end - healthy belligerence.
This was probably Jesper Olsen's best game for Manchester United
Loved Jesper Olson great player
he didnt have many old Jester
"That was a much better stop than Southall''s"....what an absolutely stupid thing to say!

The Stretford end in them days if you wasn't there you haven't lived.
Proper football.
Still the best Everton side of all time come on Everton 💙💙💙💙💙💙
Neville Southall master keeper
I thought the caption said Norman wisdom was the referee for a second!!
Good old days in the Utd road paddock right next the scousers old Trafford was a bear pit back then
What a proud and great time to be a blue.
Blatant foul throw at 3:03?
It’s like watching a different game
Best Everton team I ever Sean 👍👍

As a Leeds fan I was rooting for Man U.
Strachan pen miss 🙈🙈
McGrath crunching foul without a yellow 😂😂
& the state of the pitch! G8 times.
Man United awarded 15!!! Pens already this season!!!!!
Utd road paddock in the corner was getting abit narky near the end towards the scousers
An attacking midfield for Man Utd!? Do we need that today with Ole...
What was going on in the crowd at 23.10?
Utd road paddock getting narky at the scousers
Blimey! McGrath cleaned out Curran and didn’t even pick up a yellow!
.....yeah and Curran never even complained!....
Used to regular in those days ,some great games ,midfield then compared to now ,and the wingers they are looking up who to pass too ,not any more ,its all selfish make me wonder what do the coaches do at United.
Were both sets of fans sitting together?
How did Terry Curran get on even before Alan harper? He was a tryer but bang average.
Moses was on the bench
.....I thought he was on his way down the mountain...🤣💙
Late Jimmy Hill the best
@20:26 😮
Peter Reid tearing whiteside a new one 😂
Big Norm tore him later in the Fa Cup Final 😂
Like playing on a ploughed field
No way that was a penalty Albiston barely touched him, diver.

Awful penalty from strachan. Just as bad as the one Kerry Dixon took against us at Stamford Bridge that season.
Looked like he struck the ball with his big toe.
kingkevinhector definitely. It was an awful penalty. Mind you our pitch in the 80’s didn’t help!!

Interesting to see the son of god chatting with Jimmy Hill not something i thought i would ever see on you tube.
Yeah he speaks only the truth, you should maybe listen to him to learn a few things me old fruit
Days of honest football,shitty pitches,passion,and no pansies diving😂
and no blacks...oops
I'd far rather watch these games than watch today's over priced over paid wankers.
Brazil was a joke.
Manure’s goal was offside! No change there then, playing twelve or more men against the SLY (Six, five, seven?)
Shut up you child.Hated Adored,never ignored.MUFC.
More Salt?
Eric cantoner😂
The standard of football compared to today is appalling 😂, like kids booting it everywhere
I'd like to see tika-taka being played on this sort of pitch🤣, and this sort of tackling. Today's players wouldn't last 5 minutes
Todays players wouldn't cope on those pitches nor with the tackles
Todays game isn't football anymore.
There are no emotions aka no atmosphere no happiness to the people watching nothing bar flicks. it's appaling.
Went with Everton that day,great game,better after the game the Everton scallies ran the mancs everywhere
