What a team. Can you imagine any of the top sides today playing 60 games a season with a 14 man squad

[@tonynesbit9673]

That leeds team are in the top 5 greatest ever british football sides.

Love the footage following Bremner's goal - Billy and Big Jack waving at the Kop and winding them up, and the Kop responding with a load of good old-fashioned two-finger salutes LOL

[@StephenSmith-er2jg]

Proper players on 3 times a working man's average wage ...pogba and that other ponce Ronaldo would last 2mins with them ..

Real men .

[@seltaeb3302]

So much footage was wiped during this period up to mid 70s. Criminal.

Billy the King , what man

[@winsfordtown]

Billy Bremner scored four Semi Final winners and then another against Barcelona in the European Cup.

[@hauntboy]

Never thought of that before, but yes he did: v Man Utd twice (65 & 70) and v Wolves in 73 being the other 3.

[@Lord_Hillcrest]

I remember David Colemans favourite line of one - nil .

[@ossyable]

Didn't he score against Celtic in the semis too after 70 seconds to silence the the home crowd, though the jocks had the last laugh

[@Lord_Hillcrest]

@@ossyable Yep good call.

[@SMSJSC]

@@ossyable Yes he did, but it was after about 15 minutes, not 70 seconds. You might possibly be thinking of the first leg, when Celtic scored at Elland Rd in the first minute.

[@toggerman1743]

Great stuff from football's golden era

[@Lord_Hillcrest]

This is the same footage taken from that french channel i saw . Love it when leeds beat liverpool though . Shame Sniffers was offside.

[@hankmorgan3501]

Thanks for the upload Sid, was there that night...supporting The Reds mind.

[@SMSJSC]

At least Leeds made it count, and went on to win the trophy. Far too often they fell at the final hurdle.

The only European Semi-Final leg Liverpool have ever lost at Anfield. And they've played lots of them against the worlds biggest club sides and Chelsea.

[@merseydave1]

Wrong they lost the Europa Cup (ex U.E.F.A. Cup - now Europa League) semi - final to Seville

[@stephendeedagreenslade9441]

@@merseydave1 1) that defeat to Sevilla was in the Final NOT the semi-final and 2) it was in Switzerland NOT at Anfield. So, you are wrong.

What happened in the 2nd leg

[@merseydave1]

The Inter Cities Fairs Cup was NOT a U.E.F.A. Competition ... The U.E.F.A. Cup was from 1972 >>> onwards, Liverpool won that 3 times and THE BIG ONE The European Cup - European Champions League FIVE TIMES

[@steakandsidJustLeeds]

Initially, there was a "one city, one team" rule and the competition was only open to cities that hosted trade fairs. Where the clubs finished in their league had no relevance.. it changed after 1964, and the Fairs Cup was regarded then as the "League Runners-up Cup", with teams qualifying based on league position - The competition was organised by the Fairs Cup Committee which was led by FIFA executives until 1971,it was then taken over by UEFA and replaced with the UEFA Cup because the UEFA Executive Committee thought that such a major competition should be governed and organised by UEFA itself.. Leeds were the first British team to win it twice and the last before it chaged format.. in 1975, Leeds (2 years before Liverpool got anywhere near to it ) became only the second English club side to compete in the European Cup Final - a Final they were ultimatly robbed in.. Liverpool's domestic & european dominance only took hold after '75 - When Revie left for England the clubs directors looked outside Elland Road and the backroom structure Revie had built within it,and despite Revie's recommendations for continuity and to appoint John Giles they stupidly went for Clough and it unravelled from there - Liverpool kept it in house with Paisley and reaped the benifits - fine margins

[@merseydave1]

@@steakandsidJustLeeds The one team in one tow/city rule was The Inter Cities Fairs Cup that ended in 1971. The U.E.F.A Cup 1971 >>> Liverpool winning it in 1973, 6 and 2001, it had the league runners up down to fourth place and The League Cup Winners. I do not know where you get Liverpool's winning things from 1975 (funny thing is they wone nothing in 1975) in the early 1970s (I an NOT going to mention runners up in anything as that means You Lost) Liverpool won The League Championship and The U.E.F.A Cup in 1973, in 1974 the won The F.A. Cup, in 1976 they won The League Championship and The U.E.F.A. Cup from then on Things Just Got Better
