The first time was bloody. The second time … not so much. The Hawks’ John Scott and the Kings’ Kevin Westgarth met for the second time this season Sunday. It was a solid fight by both tough guys. No…

If you asked me what was one of the best clubs teams I’ve ever seen, it has to be Liverpool from the late 70s and early 80s. A perfect example of this is the above video featuring Liverpool’s incredible 7-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur during the 1978-79 season.
Out of the seven goals scored, the last is the best. Liverpool defender Terry McDermott went on a 70-yard run to latch on to a header from a brilliant cross by Steve Heighway to head home an incredible goal.
Liverpool plays Tottenham Hotspur this Sunday. While I doubt the scoreline will be the same as this one from 1978, perhaps it’ll give the Reds some inspiration when they face one of the hottest teams in England right now at White Hart Lane.

Last week I asked you to identify a group of songs that mentioned football teams or football players. All of these songs were written by established artists or groups, and for the most part they are not “novelty songs,” but songs that appeared on “proper” albums by artists in question. Candle knew one off the top of his head, but otherwise it seems that the rest of you were stumped. Fear not, not only have I found a video for each of the songs (though you will need to “click through” to a few that I could only find on obscure sites), you’ve also gotten a brief glimpse into my musical taste- to the jump!

This week’s video for our Friday Flashback Videos series comes to us courtesy of a recommendation by EPL Talk reader Andrew Kay. Here’s what he said:
“I ran across a YouTube video today of a Spurs – Man. Utd game at the White Hart Lane that I remember and wondered if you had seen it. It is from Match of the Day in the 1964 -1965 season, when I would have been 11 years old (which scare me a little). I used to go to these matches with my Dad and Granddad who had both been lifelong Spurs supporters and they always used to stand in the same spot on the old East Stand with the same group of people. Some of your readers new to football may look in astonishment at the state of the pitch, which was pretty normal for those days, and the number of people actually sitting around the touchline and behind the goals – I am guessing that was because of the sheer number of people they crammed onto the terraces for that game – and of course it was in the days before football violence took over the grounds.
“One question you might like to pose to your readers is what was the alphabet for on the on the sides of the stands on the far touchline? The answer is that was where the halftime results for the rest of Division one and two were put up at halftime! In the match day program was a key telling you what game each letter represented and the score was put up by the staff of the ground, the top number being the away team score and the lower one was the home team. My job as an 11 year old kid was to write them all down in the program for my Dad and Granddad so they could read them when they got back from the half-time bathroom break!
“Well, I just wanted to again share a few memories of going to White Hart Lane to watch the Spurs in some of their glory days.”
Thank you Andrew. And what a classic video it is with Tottenham Hotspur featuring stars such as Jimmy Greaves and Alan Mullery, while Manchester United featured George Best, Bobby Charlton, Denis Law and Nobby Stiles. The final result from this match was Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 Manchester United.
