Agree with the violence bit but not with anything else. It's a bit exaggerated to say the least in my opinion of course.
I'm with Sniff, you cant just pick out the worst bits, there were good things too. And a lot of the issues back then were societal issues, which manifested themselves in football.
Re the actual football, we may not have been paying to watch top world stars, but it didn't affect the enjoyment of the games. Great players will always be great players. Great teams always great too. I'd go back to the actual football of the 70's and 80's (my childhood) any day.
As well as the admission fees!!! 15p for juveniles and 25p for adults standing. I think it was 50p for a seat
Bloody hell Tricks, how old are you, 90 or something? I can vaguely recall my Dad paying £1.60 for me to stand in the Bridgford End as a juvenile in the early to mid 80's.
:D :D :D 1974 as a 13 year old, I started going to matches.
You would've been paying 1st Division admission prices in the early to mid 80's Pap. We were a struggling mid table Div 2 side when I started going down to watch them. Nothing much has changed really apart from admission costs :-/
