    Loved the coverage in this era,...Brian Moore was up there with the best,.....where as today's coverage and presenters lack the character and polished presentation skills of 1970s and 80s footy shows,...Great times , and wonderful memories

    Every world cup should start with this kind of intro. Large, crude graphics. Beamed from across the other end of the world and you could see it. Tired and grainy footage. I love it. It should be a viewing option on smart TV's.

    Whenever I hear that Alan Tew Action Argentina theme it reminds me of promotions called World Cup Plus featuring a moustached actor playing a goalie wearing a t-shirt with the Argentina 78 logo and words WORLD CUP PLUS on it, with trail rostrum camera effects, back in May 1978.

      Gray's career with Scotland never took off. In 1976 in one of his first appearances he was sent off in a World Cup qualifier and was then banned from the rest of the group ties. He was also injured during this period and didn't play for Scotland for two years until brought back by Jock Stein in 1978. However, he was in and out under Jock who often preferred Joe Jordan. He didn't get selected for the 1982 World Cup either. His final appearance for Scotland came in 1985 in a 1-0 win over Iceland in a 1986 World Cup qualifier. This had been his first cap for two years. In the end I don't think Stein rated him that highly and 20 caps and 7 goals was probably about right.

      @@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415 I must admit I always liked gray , but Jordan did have a knack of scoring important goals at the time and had huge experience with a fantastic Leeds side. Over Derek Johnstone I'd say yes, I can only think Johnstone got the nod because he'd had a great season in 77 I think but the rest of his record was patchy though he could play in several positions which might have been a consideration. Davie cooper didn't get chosen either and he's my favourite player. Then there's John McGovern but maybe it was a bit early for him. He went on the following two years to captain forest to 2 European cups And never got a single cap .
