I tell my kids not to worry about me when I'm old and decrepit and can't leave home, I will just sit and watch videos like this from my youth and be blissfully happy.
This is so odd. I'm 53. I haven't been interested in football for decades. But watching this takes me back to the football-crazy kid I was. The clips from 1976 onwards were maybe shown by BBC twice, three times, four at the most but so many up to around 1983 are indelibly stamped in the memory forever, commentary and camera angles, the lot..
Ted McDougal 1972. As a 6 year old, this was my first Villa game. 48,000 crowd in the old THIRD division. Villa came back to win 2-1. I remember hardly anything of the game, apart from the noise reducing me to tears. Happy days!.
Thank you so much for posting this. Watched it at least 50 times as a teenager and still have the VHS, but haven't seen it in years. Great memories. Always used to be baffled at why Jimmy Greaves' goal was included!
Loved going to White Hart Lane, Highbury, Upton Park and Stamford Bridge.....the away end £10 standing,just queue and get in. I loved all the Admiral, Umbro and Adidas kits and Patrick, Puma and Adidas boots and Minerva Supreme,Adidas Tango footballs and Mitre red and white League cup football... i just can't get enough or ever forget fantastic days!!!!!!!!!.
Did exactly the same as you, mostly same grounds strangely. Only difference was that it was 50 pence to get in . I must be twenty years older than you. Used to go down the Orient a lot as well.
@@grahamwood9428 10.00 standing at Chelsea away end was early 90s because I drove to Stamford bridge and parked nearby. I remember outside a pub Chelsea fans asking where's all the Tottenham and asking me questions about Chelsea to see if I was a Chelsea fan, I was relieved I knew all the answers. I dislike pink,yellow and orange boots the most I today's football.
I put this on 20 years after last watching it and still remember just about every bit of commentary "Big John Hughes... breaking forward and giving it the hammer!"
As a 9 year old in 74 onwards, I can definitely say that I remember all of those goals post 74 [ I attended most of the Liverpool one's] ... great memories of Match Of The Day and ... being at some of those games as well.
loved match of the day on a Saturday night in the 70's especially the snow games which would be cancelled today but back then they played in any kind of weather..
You're a legend for posting this. I had it on video years ago but it went missing,and I've been wanting to watch it for ages. It's the best goal compilation ever! Thanks,mate.
8:54 - Ronnie Radford - "Oh, what a goal! What a goal! Radford the scorer... and the crowd are invading the pitch" - I think this is my favourite goal of all time. I love the pitch, the crowd of urchins, the effort, and the rocket shot from 35 yards, what's not to like.
So pleased you put this on,I have got the VHS somewhere...And after watching #MOTD50 a couple of weeks ago,I felt very nostalgic & wanted to watch this.I used to watch it over & over again when I was 11-12 years old.Thankyou for the post 😊.
Ronnie Radford's goal is arguably the greatest goal ever.....I have left specific comments on that on the Hereford v Newcastle video so won't repeat them here. I am a Scottish guy and a lot of Scots like to point to Archie Gemmill's goal v Holland in 1978 (which was a great goal) as his best. Archie Gemmill's best goal is right here though, goal of the season. He intercepts the ball about 30 yards from his own goal, btw megs the Arsenal player, passes to Withe, the run he does to get into the Arsenal box is unbelievable and he still has the composure to finish like he does.....awesome.
A cab driver in London collected George Best one evening. Bestie apologised saying “I’m a bit unsteady on my feet tonight”, the cabbie quick as a flash replied “that didn’t happen too often George”… What a superb great player he was..
I can pretty much recite all the commentary on all the goals, watched this 100s of times on vhs growing up. Favourite goals include Mick Walsh and Justin fashanu
Love this vid , borrowed back in 95 and me and my buddies sat around and laughed (not at them no way) with the commentators, they were awesome, "From the corna a real cracks by Keith wells" or "oh by saaaay watta cracking goal" THANKS FOR POSTING
I remember watching Pop Robson at Sunderland. Every home game I'd come home and tell Dad who scored and he'd say 'what, Pop Robson again!!'. I've just checked. Pop Robson's still alive. 85 years old.
awesome 101 great goals from match of the day. the english league will always be the best ever league. and i still have this on vhs today, so proud to still have it now. it does mean a lot to me. and it came out the tape same year i was born. one goal always remembered with my dad always talking about it being a spurs fan. ricky villa's classic goal 1981 fa cup final replay against man city oh yeah class. my favourite fa cup goal too. and a few years back i found it in a market the football programme of the same game bought for my dad for christmas a few years back my dad was over the moon, a special goal for me and my dad :) so a happy moment that was. thank you ricky villa for making my dad happy winning the cup with that classic goal. the other goals are magic too.
I remember home supporters applauding the away team's goal when it was special - we even did it at Upton Park. Seemed to die out in the 90s, which is a shame.
Greatest ever football video. Love the crowds, especially Middlesbrough chants of "you're gonna get your fucking head kicked in" plus the bald guy at Blackpool and the granny in pink at Stoke. Great goals and even better commentary. Had this video, wish it was on dvd, so glad it's on TH-cam.
Pick of the bunch ? Mickey Walsh. Still my favourite goal of all time. Love the fact that he had nothing else on his mind. The camera being right behind it and Barry Davies legendary commentary help too. Sublime stuff !
I remember watching this years ago nearly everyday after midnights on Turkish TV channel "Kanal A". But there was no original commentary on that version. Instead of it, there were some amazing acid house songs playing. One of them was "Can You Feel The Bass?" by "Phortune". I wish I could watch it again. :(
I think Emlyn Hughes was shouting 'for coughs and colds, take Lemsip' after his goal or something like that anyway. :) Also after Allan Clarke's goal, the crowd are quite clearly chanting 'you're gonna get your fuckin head kicked in'....an old favourite and positively outrageous to be heard on telly in 1975!!
That Ronnie Redford goal encapsulates soccer before it got too big. The god-awful pitch and the crowd running on. I’m not sure which one is less likely to show up again.
Should be renamed 99 great goals, a tap in by Jimmy Greaves and a a goal by Clive Allen which for for season has been included even though Keith Houchen scored a better goal in the same game.
What makes thee goals even mpre impressive is the fact that the pitches were sometimes quagmires and they used heavy, leather balls that got even heavier when they got wet.
Always wondered why that Jimmy Greaves goal near the beginning made the cut of “great goals”. Now having seen it again I’m even more baffled - it was a tap-in from point blank range and the throw-in from which the goal came was a foul throw as the Spurs player’s foot was across the touch line when he took it. Some classic strikes in here though - Bryan ‘Pop’ Robson was a seriously underrated player.
I had the original VHS of this too. The goals selected probably reflected great British goalscorers at the beginning ie Charlton, Best, Law et al and the inclusion of the Jimmy Greaves goal reflected that from 1969 onwards when the Beeb was showing games in colour.
I tell my kids not to worry about me when I'm old and decrepit and can't leave home, I will just sit and watch videos like this from my youth and be blissfully happy.
Barry Davies was such a football enthusiast, wasn't he? The sheer joy in his voice when anyone scored a great goal added something to the occasion.
Instablaster.
@@aaronmaximus6806 What the hell is a instablaster .
The best football video I owned growing up! Must of watched this about 1000 times!

Same here

Same as me.. Now starting my second 1,000 on TH-cam. Who'd have thought it :)
must have** ffs and I hope you're still alive six years later to finally learn this lesson

Me too I've hated football for over 30 years but those clips are so fab
Ted McDougal 1972. As a 6 year old, this was my first Villa game. 48,000 crowd in the old THIRD division. Villa came back to win 2-1. I remember hardly anything of the game, apart from the noise reducing me to tears. Happy days!.
8:36 - "Big John Hughes, moving forward, breathing the chance and giving it the hammer" - classic!

Had this on VHS growing up - loved it. Commentators back then were great.
I put this on 20 years after last watching it and still remember just about every bit of commentary
"Big John Hughes... breaking forward and giving it the hammer!"
That lob from Georgie Best. Beautiful, absolutely beautiful.
I'm a Spurs fan and even I'd have applauded that one
Great video watched this 1000s of times as a kid
My first football video I ever had.... it’s great to see it again after all these years!
The best football video from the days of the peoples game.I love everything i see for an hour!!!
As a 9 year old in 74 onwards, I can definitely say that I remember all of those goals post 74 [ I attended most of the Liverpool one's] ... great memories of Match Of The Day and ... being at some of those games as well.

Still have my VHS version, it was a Christmas present in the late 80s.
Thanks so much for posting this!! This was the first video I ever bought as a kid, and still have it now - just nothing to play it on.
VHS Players available on eBay.
I used to watch this video so much! Amazing!
John Richards v Hull City. Wolves aye we. Brilliant individual goal. Best ever wolves striker. Legend ⚽👍
Had this on VHS . Must have watched it 101 times !
A quality goal by a quality player.
Top Class
Tony Currie
I have this on VHS!!
You're a legend for posting this. I had it on video years ago but it went missing,and I've been wanting to watch it for ages. It's the best goal compilation ever!

Commentary Gold !! wore out the vhs tape watching this growing up.
Sam here
When you listen to all the football commentators Barry Davies was in a different league master of his art
100% agree, he was astonishingly good
Ronnie Radford's goal is arguably the greatest goal ever.....I have left specific comments on that on the Hereford v Newcastle video so won't repeat them here. I am a Scottish guy and a lot of Scots like to point to Archie Gemmill's goal v Holland in 1978 (which was a great goal) as his best.

BIG JOHN HUGHES, BREATHING THE CHANCE, AND GIVING IT THE HAMMER. classic Barry Davies
no better commentary in.the world ever ...love it
Best footballing video ever made!
The first goal the sets the tone.motson:"look at that look at that what a goal by brady "Brilliant.
My favourite EVER goal is the trevor sinclair scissor kick for QPR at home to Barnsley. Pure class!!
Love this vid , borrowed back in 95 and me and my buddies sat around and laughed (not at them no way) with the commentators, they were awesome, "From the corna a real cracks by Keith wells" or "oh by saaaay watta cracking goal" THANKS FOR POSTING
Joe Kinnear's blatant foul throw is the best thing arguably in here - on the pitch AND rear foot in the air!!
Was just gonna say that. The first few goals are absolute crap but onwards are great
Thanks for posting this. Some great memories on there.
I remember watching Pop Robson at Sunderland. Every home game I'd come home and tell Dad who scored and he'd say 'what, Pop Robson again!!'. I've just checked. Pop Robson's still alive. 85 years old.

Great comment .

Micky Walsh's goal for Blackpool v Sunderland still class
Had this on video great memories when football was football
I checked out this very video tape VHS from my Hometown's library for years... I missed it so much!
I used to watch this on his father and grandfather on VHS when I was young. :)
thanks for posting. Classic stuff
Ronnie Radford!! The greatest goal of all time.
Oh and thank you for posting on here
I had this on video too, THANK YOU so much for the upload.
Came here via Big Match Action.
Yes, I had (probably still have) this as well. Well worn.
This video was released in 1987 NOT 1986 as the last 3 goals featured were from 1987, the last being that year's FA Cup Final
Had this on VHS from a Boot Sale, was one of many random football videos I'd watch at my Grandparents after school.
Had this on VHS in 80s
Greatest ever football video. Love the crowds, especially Middlesbrough chants of "you're gonna get your fucking head kicked in" plus the bald guy at Blackpool and the granny in pink at Stoke. Great goals and even better commentary. Had this video, wish it was on dvd, so glad it's on TH-cam.
Bald guy at Blackpool? Mick Walsh goal? Can’t see him 🤷🏻♂️
thank you for posting this!!!!!
emlyn hughes celebration is amazing.and tony curry what abou that a quality goal from a quality player
I have the original VHS of this video.
Daniel Kelegian so do i awesome :)
Jamie Warrior Warlord McCallum Its actually called 101 Greatest Goals from 1967-1985, I think??
Daniel Kelegian my tape of this says 101 great goals.
Jamie Warrior Warlord McCallum same here.
Daniel Kelegian RATFORD AAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
in the 80s me mate would always put this on after going back to his from the alehouse
Thanks for putting this up. Brings back good memories. I don’t remember the picture quality being that bad though. 😂
Glad you enjoyed it
I had this on VHS 😮
Barry Davies is quality on this video - and with the right foot too!!
Now Allan mullerys volley was class
Best goal ever mate. Pick that one out. ⚽
justin fashune was the best goal for skill ,imagination, creativity ,power and precision
unrivalled
Back when football was a sport and not a business like today
Bringing me back to my child vhs days!
The commentary I know off by heart!
i have this video and it was made at the end of 87 season.
20:21 "You're gonna get your fucking heads kicked in."
Proper.
Pick of the bunch ? Mickey Walsh. Still my favourite goal of all time. Love the fact that he had nothing else on his mind. The camera being right behind it and Barry Davies legendary commentary help too. Sublime stuff !
Mate i have just written my take on that great goal...
barry davies and john motson will never be bettered , so lucky to grow up in this area .
Bird I was with when I was about 14 ,her dad had this . Great memories
I remember watching this years ago nearly everyday after midnights on Turkish TV channel "Kanal A". But there was no original commentary on that version. Instead of it, there were some amazing acid house songs playing. One of them was "Can You Feel The Bass?" by "Phortune". I wish I could watch it again. :(
God bless Justin Fashanu. What a fucking goal. Magnificent commentary from the legendary Barry Davies too.
"Look at that, Look at that".
John Motson on Liam Brady' wonderful goal in the North London derby 77/78.
This is truly great, but it does put one in mind of that godawful Chris Waddle '1001 goals' from the early 90s.
A there's never been a better assist in the history of football, than the one at 47.50
matthew smith 😂😂😂 whatever
Football before the premier league and sky. Brilliant!
great download
I swear some of the goals are only there cos of the sublime commentary skills. Malcolm macdonald bites the hand that used to beat/feed him!
You're probably right funkyfredfrog, some of these goals don't seem 'great' to me?
oh thanks for sharing,i used to have this on video when it came out cracking stuff
Mickey Walsh Goal of the Century
McDonald's 2nd vs Bolton was Fantastic!
I think Emlyn Hughes was shouting 'for coughs and colds, take Lemsip' after his goal or something like that anyway. :)
Also after Allan Clarke's goal, the crowd are quite clearly chanting 'you're gonna get your fuckin head kicked in'....an old favourite and positively outrageous to be heard on telly in 1975!!
Ronnie Ranford!!!Legend!
Thanx
“Ooh, Mick Walsh!”
That Ronnie Redford goal encapsulates soccer before it got too big. The god-awful pitch and the crowd running on. I’m not sure which one is less likely to show up again.
Most iconic English goal of all-time?
Should be renamed 99 great goals, a tap in by Jimmy Greaves and a a goal by Clive Allen which for for season has been included even though Keith Houchen scored a better goal in the same game.
I know it’s progress but I much preferred football back in the 70’s and 80’s. The kits were so much better too...
Such a amazing video! :) Keep up the good content ;) Hugs from Sweden
What makes thee goals even mpre impressive is the fact that the pitches were sometimes quagmires and they used heavy, leather balls that got even heavier when they got wet.
Awesome 101
how did the Jimmy Greaves goal (3:05) get in the list I never understood.
That Metgod strike was something else 👏
Always wondered why that Jimmy Greaves goal near the beginning made the cut of “great goals”. Now having seen it again I’m even more baffled - it was a tap-in from point blank range and the throw-in from which the goal came was a foul throw as the Spurs player’s foot was across the touch line when he took it.
Some classic strikes in here though - Bryan ‘Pop’ Robson was a seriously underrated player.
was also a foul throw by Kinnear
I had the original VHS of this too. The goals selected probably reflected great British goalscorers at the beginning ie Charlton, Best, Law et al and the inclusion of the Jimmy Greaves goal reflected that from 1969 onwards when the Beeb was showing games in colour.
Great goals
Saw George Best many times, so far ahead of his time, he would go past players and let them get back so he could beat them again
Beat his missus a fair bit too
Free Kick at 5:30 is brilliant!
Bit surprised Everton didn't exist till 1984.Andy king scored a screamer v Liverpool on match of the day as well,and no Bob Latchford goals😏
The Limeyness of this VHS cannot even be charted
