Nostalgic 1970's Football Era

Send us Fan MailThis episode is dedictated to Pele the Worlds greatest ever football player.A nostalgic look back to the 1970's, the charasmatic players and managers around at the time and the passion on the terraces where quite literally two sides would come together with grit and steel to win the match.The magic of the 1970 World Cup in Mexico too, the Best ever Brazilian side and probably the best ever Internatiional side ever to grace the earth and win the World Cup.But essentially, the characters at football clubs, as players or managers, were a talking point in the media and supporters up and down the country, no mater who you supported and still are today. Just think of Malcolm Alinson of Crystal Palace, with the stetson, large havana cigar and overcoat - and you can then transport yourself back to a time when football was football and the beautiful game was born.A truly heart felt and warm discussion about the beautiful game in the 1970's. A time sadly lost, but a time that should never be forgotton. RIP - Edson Arantes do Nascimento, known mononymously by his nickname Pelé. The greatest player of all time.
