Watney Cup Final 1970

I think FGR offered him first team football whereas for us he would have been down the pecking order.

Cheers Vidal for the video. Watched it all last night. Brilliant commentary on the game. My first game was in 1969 against Sheff Utd at the BBG. I think Alan Durban scored the only goal of the game. I was four days short of my fourth birthday and my dad and uncle put me the kiddies corner in the Normanton End. Although I was born and raised in Nottingham my uncle lived on Cambridge Street, a stone's throw from the ground. The standout memory of my childhood was the night game against Real Madrid in October 1975 when Charlie George scored a hat-trick. It is as vivid today as it was on that cold night with my rattle in hand behind the goal in the Osmaston End.
Wifi reception is not too healthy here in the dessert, but I will try to be tuned in tomorrow at Charlton to see if we can bring home the bacon ( haram)

Regarding Robertson, to be fair we only saw him in one game and, whilst he looked good, even Sammon must have had one good game at some point early in his career. So, whilst I am a bit disappointed (based on one game) there must be a reason Palace let him go and Sheff U didn’t sign him. In Liam we trust 😄
