Liverpool fan here, but I really admire that Leeds team of the 70s and truly wish they had won this match.
Clarke penalty.. Lorimer goal.... Wicked larceny... Leeds utd cheated..
why? dirty Leeds got what they was well due.
I'm unable to watch this particular episode of this fantastic series . I was there constantly throughout these times and i was right behind the goal when Lorimer scored. The memories of that very painful evening still exist in my mind and at 60 i guess they'll never leave me. what i wouldn't have given just to see our footballing God, Billy lift that trophy. I'm watching all the others though, and a huge thank you for it. I'm looking out for myself and my great friend Neil who followed them everywhere with me. Neil was sat next to me in Paris that night but he died of a heart attack less than two years later aged 22 God bless him.
Ever since that cheating final, I get hugely excited and joyed whenever Bayern Munich lose in any European games.
Poor you, 2020 must have been a terrible year for you.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mia san mia!!
@@charlesjohnson9249 No, one gets used to see you guys win. Still, the few occasions you lose, are even better. And the best thing is, I doubt that you guys are really cheering when winning aus you are so much used to it. Hence, the only time we are all joining in extasy is when you guys unexpectedly lose!
@@jannwue again: must have been a terrible 2020 for you!!
Maybe this year could be better for you but it is an extremely pathetic life you´re living.
I really pity you.
@@charlesjohnson9249 again: Just don't care about FCB success only the great defeats. Don't pity me please
@@jannwue I am sorry but I have to pity you because it is such a miserable life you are leading by only feeling any kind of joy if Bayern looses.
Cause in the end it means that you have EXTREMELY few days per year in which you feel any kind of happiness and this is really sad.
And then there was Franz Bechanbauer the third referee on the field.Supposed to be a fair man I think not.
I love these. They're heartbreakingly short. Watch them all in a row viewers
That was a stonewall penalty.
The referee retired after this game. Obviously he had a Golden handshake from Bayern Munich. Bribing refs in Europe was rife then . Especially with German and Italian clubs.
I was absolutely gutted! Couldn't believe my eyes & ears. I was just a schoolboy at the time (11), but a very devoted fan. One of the most appalling episodes in football history. Bayern should have done a Bielsa, and refused the trophy. It was that disgusting. I would not have been proud as one of their supporters, players, etc. Leeds have rarely had the rub of the green!
I'm not a Leeds fans but I must confess I do find Marching on Together (Leeds Leeds Leeds) a very jolly football song!
I’m a Newcastle fan and never liked Leeds, I knew Leeds were one of the best teams when I was growing up but didn’t want them to win. The European cup final was different and felt cheated just as much as the Leeds fans . I was 10 when the match was played and still remember the game.
Chelsea fan and obviously no lover of Leeds but that was and still is an absolute disgrace,as bent as arseholes.
Fantastic series though 👍
Leeds won that fair and square, should have a star designed into their crest regardless. Beckenbauer was like the flu around this time, he also hurled abuse at Jack Taylor in the 1974 WC final when he awarded the 1st minute penalty. The whole thing stunk.
Just a word of thanks for these incredible uploads. Love the way you incorporated the fashion & music of the times along with the key footage. Really brilliant stuff. An amazing amount of hard work & dedication went into this body of work. Takes me right back to the times. Watching Clarke's Leeds go down at that WBA match right at the end of the season... I hope Brentford won't be a similar episode this year! Thanks again for all of your excellent work.
Seeing that again now...match fixed..becanbaur reminded the ref he was getting a bribe and that's why the goal was disallowed..German.. Spanish and Italian teams have always bribed refs..I should know having seen four penalties turned down in 09 when Chelsea were cheated out of a champions league final place by Barcelona 😠😠😠 !!! Herb Chelsea
Imagine if VAR had been around in those days. Lorimer goal would stand. Penalty for the foul on Clarke, and maybe one or two red cards for those dirty tackles by Munich players.
I can remember it, Leeds were done out of the final. Back then we couldn't watch it on TV only listen to it on the radio. They didn't want Leeds to win pure and simple. UEFA has always been bent especially when it came to English teams because we were winning most of the European games
well worth a watch the very last minute with,,especially the last minute with little old me getting on the ferry in my not very trendy brown jacket! three weeks before my 17th birthday, left home monday morning and got back friday night,,great week.
Danny Costello did you make it to hilllsbrough 2 years later? The most embarrassing turn out for a so called 'big ' club by Leeds that day in April 1977.
Danny!..@7.12, that is you! with the 4 other lads!
You've got great big flared trousers at ''half mast!''
Good job the stadium had a moat, otherwise you'd have been up the other end to
take up WW2 again, hahahaha!
I remember that game so well. Leeds were simply robbed.
Robbery in Paris - still remember watching this on tv
How can UEFA ban that footage? I can see why they would want to, but don't see how.
I'm not a Leeds fan - and I apologise for taking as long as I did to realise it was Don Revie co-commentating - but am enjoying watching these 'wilderness years' clips as a football fan. Still good football being played, even after 'the glory years'. Thanks for putting them up.
They used to tuck us up in It's a Knockout as well. Bastards.
Didn't Derby County have some shocking decisions go against them in a European Cup Semi around this time?
cLOUGH would have won another european cup if it wasnt for the cheating ref
bascet1 That was against Juventus, a German player called Haller was seen talking in German to the German referee Schulenberg.
@@masonfreeparty Cloughie AND Taylor
yes Taylor played a big hand in clough's success
Cloughies interview was funny. He said ‘I’m not talking to you lot because I don’t speak to cheating bastards’
Apparently our number 6 in the European cup final was Huter...who knew?..1:09
I've watched that goal a hundred times and can't believe it got disallowed. Och well.
A very young-looking Prime Minister Jacques Chirac at 0.48 to 0.52 (for all you French politics fans out there...). 23 years later he would be President, and cheering Emmanuel Petit's goal in the 3-0 win for France in the World Cup Final at the Stade de France...
Ero giovanissimo ma ricordo molto bene quella partita, il Leeds United meritava di vincere la Coppa dei Campioni ed invece ha subito un vero furto!
I remember watching.that game on the telly with my dad. I was 11 years old. And we both wanted Leeds to win the cup.. my dad called that referee all the names under the son.. Leeds were cheated. Ian from liverpool
And Coventry thought they had it tough with their offside goal at Wembley...
Beckenbauer played Jack Taylor in the 74 World Cup final as well. Said 'You're an Englishman' to him after he gave the penalty to Holland in the first minute, ie 'you're bound to side with them aren't you, but you've got a sense of fair play too'. Needless to say, a little later he gave W. Germany a soft penalty for their equaliser. But then, what player isn't in the ref's ear? What's so odd about this is that the ref gives a goal and then rules it out after a player has a whinge. Never seen that before. The 'blocked by UEFA' thing just makes it smell even worse. They probably pleaded 'copyright', but the fact that the other footage seems to be OK suggests otherwise. No wonder I can't find the game anywhere on CZcams.
On another score, I didn't know till recently that Armfield sent on Revie's team because it was 'their last chance', leaving out Duncan McKenzie, and let Revie lead out the team. Is that actually true or McKenzie's sour grapes? Pretty astonishing if it is true.
Its true he wanted Revies team out of respect but he didnt lead them out.
@@Lord_Hillcrest01 Mckenzie should have been introduced at some point as he could produce a bit of magic out of nowhere.
Definetly Leeds were cheated as were Derby in Juventus in 1973
Thanks to Leeds in 1975 we faced over policing in 1981
As madeley heads the ball across goal Billy Bremner is two yards offside
Not sure about the Clarke penalty, Beckenbauer gets a touch on the ball IMO. And the Lorimer goal was fractionally offside
Richard behave. It’s the most blatant penalty you’ll ever see and you can quite clearly see he doesn’t touch the ball.
What about the Eddie Gray foul nailed on penalty.
We are the champions, champions of Europe....MOT..
The decline began when Clough came in and Revie left.
And just for the record, here's the Lorimer goal & Cramer stating that it was a goal without a doubt.

In Franz's defense, how can you say no to a fro like that?
At 4 minutes 30 seconds...Is that what i think it is ?...
thats john costello not danny!
your brother?
If that doesn’t prove how bent that was when EUFA blocked the Leeds goal what does?
English teams and national have been cheated out of a lot of trophies... look at Maracuntingdona for fucksake!!!
Leeds were clearly robbed in that 1975 European Cup final! Don Revie should have never left Leeds for England! Total injustice!
The Wilderness Years?. Still waiting to view your most recent update, the one that goes up to 2019 and beyond.
Thomas O'Flaherty At a DVD store near you now. United are back!
The thumbnail reminds me of the covers of a couple of Lynyrd Skynyrd albums... "Pronounced" and "Nuthin' Fancy".
1:31 Penalasooooooo!
Je suis français en 1975 je me souviens très bien de la finale contre Bayern a paris... l'arbitre français Mr kitabdjian avait offert la coupe au bayern en volant leeds comme c'est pas permis... Un véritable scandale... avec mon père on était fan du football anglais on avait vraiment honte de cet arbitre français
Blocked bye uefa my ass I've seen that footage loads of times,they should of had a penalty for sure and Lorimer's goal should have stood but that don't mean it would of been it
CZcams has video recognition algorithms that UEFA buy into (as do the EFL and Premier League). When the first version of the film was uploaded, it was soon removed by CZcams since the Leeds goal pictures flagged that it was UEFA copyright footage. I appealed the decision but lost. I subsequently re-edited the footage to obscure the goal so that the film would be allowed.
I support Chelsea and I like Bayern munich because I was born there I have been to the stadium
Patrice Ikome Chelsea and bayern Munich just how can unlucky one man be.
I still hate that ref even that i know he's dead. Biggest cheater in the game. I would like to piss on his grave.
He took away the best players ever been in England their last chance to be european CHAMPIONS.
LEEDS UNITED NORWAY 🇧🇻🇬🇧
So the referee was corrupt.
bayern never ever beat na english team again in a final
what a fix..
Very funny to watch Bayern deservedly win the cup hilarious!
Too bad no VAR!
You know what the krauts say ''For you the VAR is over''
Leeds United Robbed
cheated. ref was paid off.
I am no Leeds fan anything but ... yet that European Cup final was rigged. I have never been so disappointed by a result and I wanted Leeds to lose at first. When Clarke was pulled down I thought it was a genuine mistake and just laughed it off. But as the game went on and as Leeds began to get more and more on top it became clearer that something was not quite right. The Lorimer 'goal' that never was convinced me that this was a conspiracy. The referee was on his way back to the halfway line and I have never before or since seen a referee change his mind apart from the introduction of VAR. There should have been a full investigation into this and the match replayed. Ironically this happened to Leeds in the European Cup in 1992 against another German team when they played an ineligible player. Maybe Leeds would not have won the replayed match who knows but the way that game was refereed was a scandal.
No fan of Leeds, but they were definitely robbed that night. As they were against AC Milan in 1973. RIP, Mr. Norman Hunter.
If ever there was justification for fans to riot…..
disgusting cheats is all one can say about bayern munich, beckenbauer one of the finest players of his day should be eternally ashamed, leeds really should have been england's second european champions, definite penalty and absolutely nothing wrong with lorimers goal, one of the greatest football injustices
I'm amazed that not a single one of the Tommies in the comments can spell "Beckenbauer".
Bentbauer is how he's known
Translated its pronounced "cheating german twat" you're welcome ..Tommy 🇬🇧
They can´t even speak their own laguage, how could the be capable of speaking a foreign laguage??
That guy alone won more World Cups than your entire country. And "Beckenbauer" actually means "Pool builder". The exact pool he uses to collect your tears.
Have a nice one.
@@Terminatror43 Hehehehe 👍👍👍👍👍
Dynamo Kyiv showed those clowns from Bayern how to play during SuperCup later.
The best Game, Leeds United -: FC Barcelona, 1975 !!!!
CHELSEA FC...................
www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p04fdcb2 listen to this from John Motson what he says about Leeds lol
Stop the whining already. Leeds were a bunch of hacks and should have been down to 10 men after 5 minutes when Terry Yorath assaulted Bayern's Björn Andersson and broke his leg in two places. One of the cheapest shots I have ever seen in my life. You were not cheated, you just got what you deserved ;-)
Zoey girl dik head
Not true tho
Stop it lol the tackle on Andersson was a 50/50 tackle
Leeds were robbed
We are leeds
Absolutely disgusting how leeds were robbed .
It's clear that, that game was a Franco German stitch up just like the EU
The good old days before I needed to buy in the Bobby Charleton wig section holed up before we confronted the scum at Old Toilet. Me and my footsoldiers can be seen in the video getting off the battle bus for fisting and windmilling. Took some out on the JC bogs for FKTS MOT ALAW WACCOE.
Hmmmmm.....are you feeling alright?
@@staceygrove5976 You gotta be old stye Leeds to understand, are you a youngster or going to ER in the mid 70's?
WACCOE.
2 EUROPEAN FINALS THAT LEEDS GOT ROBBED ( 1973 THESSALONIKI 1975 PARIS)
Leeds Utd we’re cheated . The game was fixed. Still waiting for UEAFA to do the right thing and give the game to Leeds, but they won’t. SHAME on them.
SHAME
Of course it was a penalty! And of course it was a goal! SHAME Referee! SHAME UEFA!
The 70s were terrible and so was the football.
I'm an arsenal fan but Leeds were robbed no doubt
L'arbitre, la honte !!! Finale volé !!! Honte au Bayern München
Leeds fans never been the best losers...baseball ground i remember
Muahaha, Leeds was robbed? Yeah of course. Ref didnt sent off three Leeds players in the game. Get your silly "We woz robbed"-propaganda right. After the game Leeds was banned from the competition for years. You know there was a reason....
Hate germans
what do leeds expect when they sack the greatest manager after 44 days...total yorkshire prats! ha,ha...DERBY FOREVER
Clough was useless at Leeds. Made a total tit of himself.
masonfreeparty Derby forever in Leeds shadow.
Thought Brian Clough was great.
He pretty much put Forrest and Derby on the footballing map, so was a bigger star there than almost literally anyone.
Although he was definitely respected in Leeds, he was probably seen as a gobby twat at the time. Then expected to walk into Leeds and for the whole city to throw roses at his feet as he walked through the door for the first time, he should have, and did know better that to think he could swan in and just basically cunt everyone off.
When he came to Leeds it turned into 44 days of everyone just banging their ego's together.
We'll never know what Clough could have done if him and the team had gelled, plus a couple of his own signings?
But he blew it just as much as Leeds did, and he regretted it too later.
Anyway, it's two years after you posted, hope you made it? lol
Englisch Dynamite
You can fix games and nobble refs in England BUT thats small fry watch how the EURO'S teams do it !!!!! Taste your own medi LEEDS a long time comeing
