I've still got the vinyl LP of the match commentary....

I have one of the Old Trafford winning 2nd replay against Everton in 1977 - I used to have my earphones on and relive that game everynight at bed time

I had a film projector that year for Xmas and this was the film I bought to show on it from a video shop a couple of doors down from Harry Parkes on Corporation st.

Watched it endlessly - once I could set it up and force everybody to close the curtains- but it had no commentary. Or it probably did, but my old man couldn't work it out.

The only game at which I smoked a fag -the bloke next to me kindly offered me one as a cure for my nerves as the clock ran down.

It didn't work...
