"Tremendous work by the ground staff". It's a ploughed field.

You can tell the lads were loving playing in the mud, chucking the lot in on every tackle.

Shouldn't this be 28 January instead of February. Looking at the fixtures only 9 games were played that weekend, so the others were played midweek, i bring this up coz i thought late Feb. for fourth round is too late, but it's great to see the old footy from childhood thanks.

[@YeOldeFootballChannel]

Should be corrected now. Cheers!

ITV love showing goals against Liverpool and cup finals

I adored playing in those conditions, so much better than today's sanitised carlos kickaball pitches. Those players in 60s, 70s and even 80s gave their all in every game for a pittance compared to what the pampered primadonnas nowadays who kiss the badge but in reality couldn' t care less if they play or not. Billy Bonds would have battered a few senseless in the dressroom if they acted up like the current Man U mob do. Loved Brian Moore's commentary too. I'd rather watch these old vids than waste my time watching the spineless live garbage in prem and champions league

Haha, when Parkes bounced the ball 3:11 it stayed in the mud.

An interesting away kit Q.P.R. are wearing v West Ham United. Umbro shirt but Adidas shorts and socks. Nowadays no real chance of mix and match kits.

[@ChrisAlexT]

Good observation. Thought there was something a bit different about that combo.

[@Ponty30]

Frank Sibley sent off for coaching from the side lines??

[@seanbonella]

Them pitches were terrible

[@paulmorris9605]

indeed

[@seltaeb9691]

That's what made it interesting & exciting. Today's pitches are utterly boring.

[@seanbonella]
