This is the game that got me supporting The Arsenal... Was at my Granny's house, my uncle a spuds supporter says to me "come and watch this wee team kid"... What a game... When Brady scored that worldy I was jumping about on the sofa... 8 years old... never looked back... Plus I got good bragging rights at my uncle for ever after that game...
I live an hour from the Emirates and the Arsenal shop and if I had the spare cash it would buy me a '79 cup final replica yellow with the number 7 on the back. The midfield general. Look up the Arsenal first goal in the '79 cup final and the movement from Liam that tore United's midfield apart. Magical!
I was privileged enough to be there aged 16. Stood in the Tottenham end whilst the Arsenal end chanted we want 6. Unable to celebrate until I got back to Victoria station. Loved it 😊
I was a 14 year old then , squashed and thrown all over the place in the crowd the atmosphere in the away end was magical .The singing and the chanting was as one.and it will never be matched for me ever.When the King of Highbury put a bend and swerve on the ball I was right behind it. Brady could not done better if he used his hand to put it in the top corner . Miss those days the smell the experience and excitement of those derbies does not compare to what we get now a days.”And we shall sing forever more because of Boxing Day”.
I was there best game ever I watch this video many times. I was 22 then still think about it often . Traveled over 4 hours on a train for home matches from Windermere. I miss all my friends from those days
Best game ever? Did you stop going after this game? I could choose many more games I went to. Juventus away 1980. Liverpool away 1989. Parma in Copenhagen in 1994. Fucks sake. I could be here for hours. But you see where I'm going?
@@chasbeanpole8799 I agree many great results over the years but because it was against that lot it was my favourite game. I stopped going regularly after 1881 when i got married. I now live in the Philippines so can not go now. But i still hate the ,Y...don't think you can call them that anymore . Great results last Saturday The Juventus game you mentioned was good but i missed it .i went to all the other European games home and away the home game finished one all if i remember correctly. I was unemployed at the time so i didn't go but i went to the final which was a bad week lost to West ham then valansia. I don't blame RIxie Brady missed the first one after Kempas missed. I had many great times but its just memories now. Hope you still go
I was there. Fantastic match as we chanted we want 6 ! Had to tuck my glorious red and white scarf down my trousers as we went down the escalator at seven sisters....
Did you hav a sore throat after! All that singing I did I Never wore scarves at London derby West ham Chelsea N Spurs your asking for Trouble if you dis Especially when You literally tore Spurs Apart Alan Sunderland Hat trick and a Brady Wonder goal It was shown on match Of the day opening Titles for a good few years
First time I'm seeing these longer highlights. There are so many little fascinating details. I'd love someone to do a commentary focusing on all the chants. The Tottenham fans were trying so hard to keep it going but Arsenal kept scoring to shut em up lol. And I'd never seen Brady run to the Shelf after that wonder goal! He had all those awful shots from a similar position before then finally, "take that"!
@@smashdalde9713 Yeh, that's the only one I remember, think it was nmbr 7 (?) great cross & header. I'm an Evertonian but was in the road end with a lad from school, it wasn't unusual back then to go to the odd Liverpool game - went to few European games, like Trazbonspor & best of all that St.Etienne game
@r queI think Johnny Oi and his Clockwork Orange firm would disagree , your probably talking about the spuds lot from the Corner Pin the women and kiddy beaters How many Arsenal locked out the ground in 71, ??? I oh , i oh it's off to Tottenham we go with a bottle an brick and a walking stick , I oh .
4 роки тому+2
@r que .. Spot on there... Your lot were lively late 70s along that high rd.. Goons did get it together for a few yrs... 82 onwards..
Now I hardly find this pleasing (being as I'm long suffering Spurs fan)But as I'm also a fan of quality football,&u would have to be clueless not to recognize the ability of Liam Brady! The way he swerved that (Hard Leather)Ball for that goal.was Phenomenal!. Yes today's games do not have this kind of quality!
I was at this game, as an Arsenal fan of course. When we started chanting "You are my Arsenal, my only Arsenal, you make me happy when skies are grey" the Spurs fans just went silent. There were so many of us, all around the ground. What a great day that was.
ajay999999: 😂😂😂😂 this is the same season T.Francis moved from BCFC to Forest and in doing so became "the first" £1,000,000 footballer. One year later, B.Robson moved from WBA to Man Utd for £5,000 per week!!!!!!!!! It's the year 2020 - I wish I was on £5,000 per week!!!!!
Different times this was A cup final performance From Arsenal fc Magic night and I was ther Had one hell of a sore Throat After that game I can tell you! Haha
And even still today, more then 35 years later, The Gunners STILL rule the North London Derby, COYG!!! KILL!!! Since this match in the Christmas holiday season of 1978: Arsenal - 4 League titles - 1989, 1998 (League/FA Cup Double), 2002 (League/FA Cup Double), and 2004, and we won the League that year at Shite Hart Lane and went UNDEFEATED (26 wins, 12 draws and NO LOSSES!!!) Tottenham, you ask - well. they haven't won the League since 1961, and that streak will continue, as long as Arsene Wenger is in charge of The Arsenal, THE Undisputed Kings of North London, and have been for all these years!!!
FA CUP 79, 93,98,02,03,05,14,15,17 and 20. League Cup 87 and 93. League champions 89,91,98,02,04. Ecwc 1994 Spurs FA Cup 81,82 and 91. Uefa Cup 84. League Cup 1999 and 2008. Since this match 18 trophies to 6 in Arsenal favour. Spurs between 81 and 85 were very good and maybe should have achieved more. Gulf between the clubs in trophy count is huge.
SPURS MADE THE BIGGEST MISTAKE IN TRANSFER HISTORY WHEN THEY SOLD PAT JENNINGS TO ARSENAL...TRULY A MOST BREATHTAKINGLY SHOCKING MISTAKE......WHY OH WHY .....
Was 15 at the time and went to this game, I remember leaving at 4-0 and heard the 5th goal just as we were walking down the Park Lane, hearing the Arsenal fans, painful, just before Christmas too. Never understood why the Republic of Ireland or Eire as they were known in the 70s had to wait until Jack Charlton becoming manager in 1986 to become a decent team qualifying for international tournaments and doing well in them when they had some top players pre-Jack like Brady, Stapleton and O' Leary, and I'm sure there were others at other clubs. We at Spurs had Chris Hughton around that time who became an Irish international.
I was there always thought chippy gave the scum two fingered salute after his goal ... perhaps just wishful thinking or what I would have done.. thanks for putting this on here my sister went over match of the day before I saw it VHS days
My man of the match forty four years ago in the North London derby Liam Brady that beautiful chip which was our fourth goal. Great goal from our Irish midfielder for Arsenal. Arsenal 78-79 team Jennings, Rice (c), Walford, Gatting, O’ Leary, Young, Price, Brady, Sunderland, Stapleton, Rix. Pat Jennings, Pat Rice and Sam Nelson both for Northern Ireland. David O’Leary, Frank Stapleton and Liam Brady both for Republic of Ireland. Alan Sunderland and Graham Rix both for England.
Motson" Look at that" We tore Spurs apart with five goals , the two Irish players for us, Stapleton and Brady. Alan Sunderland scoring his hatrick. Liam Brady scoring that beautiful goal. Stapleton known for his headers, decide a bicycle kick.
Sat in the back of the Park Rd stand at this match, next to my brother who is an Arsenal supporter and behind a bloke puffing on a pipe throughout the match…. Not a happy day although my brother saw it differently. Liam Brady was some player, I remember reading how upset Juve fans were when they replaced him…. Until they saw how good the replacement was Michel Platini.
So glad that Pat Jennings was shown respect by his former supporters (unlike poor Sol) and probably had much chat and bants with them, being the spectator that he was that day... Ah! I remember it well.
I was at that match! Brilliant evening! Remember coming out afterwards and all of us going 'shhhhh' went very quiet as we knew there would be trouble. Cans, bottles coins raining down! ha ha. Good old days! Alan Sunderland's best performance for me, although overshadowed by Brady's special goal!
@r que what is it with you lot and violence, are you that thick to realise everyone had good and bad days. You go on like you are so tough. Absolute morons, always play the voilent card. Biggest mouths in football. No one likes you and your fans and as a football club. Give it a fucking rest with you and your so called army. It's embarrassing.
@r que yeah you lot are so tough. Is that all concerns you is the fighting aspects, mate grow up. And things move on as we all should. Football is way better nowadays, at least you can take your children to games without hopefully getting caught up in some stupid childish adults trying to knock 11bells of shite out if one another. Ive seen it all mate. Grow up with all this nonsense. Fucking donkeys all firms that are involved!!!!
A wonderful goal for Liam Brady. Alan Sunderland getting a hat-trick Frank Stapleton getting the third. Sweet victory for the Gunners against the arch enemy.

RIP Terry Neil! One of the greatest away games I ever attended.
Just came across this! Wow! What a performance! Liam Brady! What a star!
I live an hour from the Emirates and the Arsenal shop and if I had the spare cash it would buy me a '79 cup final replica yellow with the number 7 on the back.
The midfield general.
Look up the Arsenal first goal in the '79 cup final and the movement from Liam that tore United's midfield apart.
Magical!
Liam Brady what a player 👍👍
I was privileged enough to be there aged 16. Stood in the Tottenham end whilst the Arsenal end chanted we want 6. Unable to celebrate until I got back to Victoria station. Loved it 😊
Same age watching it in away end.. Brady's goal was magnificent and I'm a Leeds fan lol 👍👍
There was a period in the old First Division days when we played middlesex hotspurs at Christmas & Easter time! 😮❤ Those were the days!
Idiot
Can't believe this has been so long ago... 40 years !!!! But this game was still 18 years AFTER the Spuds last won the league 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shut up you prick

Iconic goal by Brady.
Looking at this game, Sunderland and Brady were amazing
Lovely to watch Arsenal beating Spurs, no matter when it happened.
I was a 14 year old then , squashed and thrown all over the place in the crowd the atmosphere in the away end was magical .The singing and the chanting was as one.and it will never be matched for me ever.When the King of Highbury put a bend and swerve on the ball I was right behind it.

Miss those days the smell the experience and excitement of those derbies does not compare to what we get now a days.”And we shall sing forever more because of Boxing Day”.
HAha!
Snap!
I was there and 14 years old too!
At the end I remember I kept asking my dad what the final score was because I couldn't quite believe it!
Pat Jennings was such a great keeper just his presence alone was enough .I believe he was the best goalkeeper in the world
Dunno if he was the best in the world back then, but i would be prepared to say he was in the top one....
Still can't believe the Spuds sold him to us for 45K, thinking that Barry Danes was a better keeper!!!!
bradys goal was brulliant. great player.
Liam Brady--absolutely magic!!
"Chippy" No.7
I was there best game ever I watch this video many times.

Damn, remember that Brady goal like it was yesterday. Forgot just how good a finisher Sunderland was.

Hat trick and a Brady
Wonder goal

Brady was on a different level that day. Arsenal absolutely mashed the Spuds in that match. COYG
I was at this game behind the goal when brady scored can remember it like it was yesturday . Chippy brady
what a goal from Brady
arsenals irish backbone : Jennings - oleary - brady - stapelton (with rice and nelson as each full backs)
Plus the manager Terry Neill was also Irish!
'A Cockney Cup Final at Christmas' pure poetry that
BRADY WORLD CLASS
ye have to agree mate he had natural flowing talent like best

Absolutely seamless highlights package
1978 must have been a nightmare time to be a Spurs fan. Battered 7-0 by Liverpool, hammered 5-0 at home by Arsenal...
Indeed.Terry 'Mac's header in that game,still the best goal ever seen at Anfield..
It wasn't that bad, an 11th place finish, f.a. cup quarter finals, scored 48, only conceded 61 all season, and that was "only" a -13 goal difference

Chippy Brady tried a shot from far out, Motson said, "not many players would have tried that in case it looked silly."
Oh how I wish football had stayed like this forever.

The transcript is so funny :p
Even to this day people say to me who’s your favourite arsenal player ? Henry bergkamp. I answer Liam Brady every time.
I was there it seemed the greatest ever ( I was to young to have really understood the double )
The pride of North London is Arsenal and never Tottenham.
One Liam Brady - there’s only one Liam Brady………

Thus was back when a tackle was called stud.
