Have no words to express how grateful I am to you uploading this. I was 10 when this game was played and my hero Willie Maddren played and scored. Willie was the best IMO at his position in England and never got true recognition, probably down to playing for an unfashionable team back then. Sadly in later life he got motor neurone disease but he fought it and was supportive to fans and the heightening of awareness about the disease. Whigham, Hickton, Derek Downing, Eric McMordie, Hughie Mcllmoyle etc are a few of our legends from that time.
Fantastic volley by Peter King into the top right corner..''Goal of the Season!'' One of the best games ever on You Tube! Keeper Frank Parsons had a nightmare, he played only a few games during a decade in the pro. game. Blatant gamesmanship when he moved the ball on the penalty spot..saved it but then his blunders began..poetic justice! haha.
peter king used to be one of the officers in my old borstal...finnamore wood in marlow....met him in 1980 when he took me from Rochester borstal to finnamore wood...
Remember that game so well and probably the first time I have seen that Peter King goal since that day. I think it is probably the game that has installed that life long fear that I have that no matter how many goals up we are i can never relax. Frank Parsons had a nightmare after his penalty save and don't think he played again. Seem to recall he ended up trying his luck as a kicker in American football! Could not have done any worse than his goalkeeping.

That's my dad mate 😂
Brian Clark demonstrates with his first goal why he was just so bloody good!
My first City game...
I was there :)
A rare treat a Wilie Maddren goal on film. Sadly he died of MND about 10 years ago.
