    Gordon Hill and Steve Coppell. Whenever they attacked down their respective wings, you could feel the excitement lift Old Trafford off the ground.
    Great players.

      Nice to be related to him. A very nice man who sent pictures to my young boy during lockdown when I asked for training advice. His name is Matthew.

    That Docherty team holds a special place in the hearts of many utd fans who were around in these days . They were such an invigorating hardworking team and Gordon sparkled more than most .Many thaka gordon and all the best .

      The most exciting United side ever. Gordon was a real winger who scored shedloads of goals and, was an expert volleyer.

    As a lover of the English game, I've had many favorites during the years and Gordon Hill is certainly one of them; extremely skillful, great dribbler of the ball and a powerful shot. A classic winger!

    Great player for United and a more or less two footed winger. Scored some terrific goals and made many more.😊

    my favourite player when i was a kid. not a united fan but they've always been my 2nd favourite team. this guy is a big reason why. also someone gave me a batch of united programmes (circa 66-74) and they were things of beauty.

  • @markgriffiths7462
    @markgriffiths7462 Рік тому +6

    Gordon was nicknamed Merlin for good reason. Not at OT long enough. Another dim manager we had got rid of him. He was, as in the words of the great George Best a 'bit special'. Great he is still connected to football teaching the young ones. Shame Utd have not had the sense to employ him as a coach.

    Great post. If you get the chance, have a listen to Gordon Hill on the Man Utd Podcast recorded a few weeks ago. A great winger with such a sweet left foot - a top bloke & a true Old Trafford legend of the 70s...

  • @user-ct2wo6ig4x
    @user-ct2wo6ig4x 2 місяці тому +3

    One of the last great wingers. Left sided too a problem for England for years to come when injury cut his career short. Always remember jack Charlton commentating in an FA Cup final saying what a wonderful player this lad Gordon Hill is.

      Love his cross at 1:28 for Stuart Pearson’s side foot volley at Ipswich.Hill and Coppell were brilliant players.Sadly, a knee injury finished his career,as it did to Steve Coppell.

      I think it was all banter really. He came with a decent price tag and the moniker merlin from Millwall. He settled in nicely. Lou macari wound everyone up. Ask Mickey Thomas! He was befriended by Sammy mcllroy
