Any younger Ipswich fans watching this: Forest won the European Cup in 1980 and were reigning champions. They were lucky it was only 2-0. Those were the days. We had the perfect midfield: Warky central breaking up play and scoring a hatful; Muhren the best crosser and passer in the league and Thyssen the best dribbler. Up front Mariner, the complete striker and Brazil, another great dribbler. The back four were not just solid but both full backs provided attacking options. They were everyone’s favourite second team except in Norwich. At the time their shirts were yellow, hence the Canaries. Since everyone in Norwich turned green with envy, it was incorporated into the shirts where it remains to this day.
Great Ipswich side - were on for the treble in April and best side in terms of talent in the country but had 13 players and played 67 games ! Injuries added up and they only ended up with European trophy.
Good night. Thank you so much for the video. Enjoyed and liked. Bravo! Country Azerbaijan
My first ever Ipswich game. Loved it. That Forest side were the reigning European champions and we beat them pretty comfortably in the end.
two great teams of the 80s

The best football ever in league history...closely followed by the orange used when it snowed
Hi Rob - I'd be interested in a copy of the highlights too, please, if that's possible?
Forest were a top side & like Arsenal difficult to beat. We obviously did well here & I was at this game.
Id very interested in a copy of the full highlights of this one mate for myself, contact me if you can help me out
Hi Tim. Sorry - only just seen your message! Do you still want a copy?
Forest were defending European Cup champions…score could have been 6-0 if not for Shilton!
