I was one of those along for the ride when Malcolm oversaw two relegations and somehow remained incredibly popular with the fans. He mentioned Terry Venables who took over and eventually created the short lived ‘Team of the 80s’. I saw them training from the science block classrooms at Langley Park school. The greatest day was when we beats Leeds 1-0 at Elland Road in Feb 1976, followed by a windowless & bitterly cold coach journey home as the Leeds fans had taken their revenge…..

Was anyone attacked or beaten up?

[@ashamed-n5n]

@@lennylaa1686 From memory - and it was nearly 47 years ago(!) it was just kicking & fisticuffs: no weapons.

[@philroger4979]

Barry - I was at that game at Elland Rd - you guys deserved your win and I've been admirer of your fans ever since. Sorry about ours....

Tony Currie was supposed to be a great England prospect at the time, but Trevor Brooking was the one showing class.

Big Clyde’s last goal for the Ammers. I was there with my dad for my 14th birthday treat

[@Ruda-n4h]

He scored one in the FA Cup a few days later.

[@andytcla]

League cup, bit fair enough. His last goal at UP ​@Ruda-n4h

Smashing Blades away kit!

Admiral definitely did distinctive kits 🤓

Malcolm Alison,a legend in his own mind.

[@Ruda-n4h]

Malcolm was a talented coach and innovative thinker but the 'Big Mal' persona took him over.

[@normanby100]

@@Ruda-n4h Certainly a legend in the bedroom.

Great stuff Keelan Powell Boyer MacDougall happy days OTBC

[@Ponty30]

I don't think Brian Moore enjoyed that game!

[@alanprior7650]

Certainly unusual to hear Brian say,at half time, quite a boring game!

[@andrewwestgarth7]

There was a funspot made of the police taking away the streaker , do you have that ? 😊

[@moose6509]

´Woodward´s got quite a crack on him´ Oh I say Brian......

[@NathanGibson-lx5yi]

West Ham top of the table. Unlike today! Sorry couldn't resist!

[@thetruthk5138]

Perhaps next season in the championship

[@zapbrannigan000]

why was max walker in the intro?

[@Ruda-n4h]

He was a guest on the programme once when the Australians were touring England, but I recall that being 1977.

[@curtisalleyne3710]

No mediocre million pounds players in those days
