Well I have to say I enjoy watching the older games just because it brings me back to my youth ! some great players from around 76 to 87ish players like Brady,Currie, Devonshire , Cunningham , J.Robertson ,P .Barnes ,Coppell ,Hoddle , Robson ,Gemmill , Woodcock , McDermott ,Sounness, Rixand too many more to mention but wasn't better or worse all players have their own time Football is simply the best always!
Football seemed to be a lot more direct in those days, with the emphasis on attacking as soon as possible. Much more exciting than today's game, where teams seem to be endlessly passing backwards and sideways and desperately hanging on to possession.
Players like Regis, Statham at WBA, at Villa, Morley and Cowans, Devonshire at West Ham, and Hoddle at Spurs and Greenwood was struggling to put together a highly capable team for the WC in Spain in 1982?

The first season of 3 points for a win.
Funny how it was WBA who sent them down at the end of the season.
both keepers had no gloves on.
