But a dirty sod. Keegan was trying to get at the ball and Giles floored him. At a Charity match!! That's Leeds, folks. And the stupid smirk on the interviewer's face. Pathetic.
John please live and be well forever - my favourite Leeds player ever - I am supposed to be working from home and I’ve just got a John Giles interview marathon going in the background....my fondest regards to you Sir - I’d love to hear you talk about Billy Bremner
Was at that game and was a snappy affair for a charity shield, being a red, keegan was superb, Giles was also a superb player, nobody can say that match was boring 😁
Of course he shouldn't have done it(and let's be honest JG spun around txt book style and claimed KK,)but Keegan was racing around on a mission to kick as many Leeds players as possible..But then he met JG and was"ironed out"unceremoniously!!
Check out Leeds vs Liverpool in the 1974 Charity Shield, which is an annual pre-season "friendly" between the previous season's league champions and FA cup winners. This one wasn't very friendly however!
It was a good hit by Johnny. To be fair Keegan got back up and didn’t make much of an issue with it neither did the Liverpool players, it was a different game then.
Was a crazy little eleven-year-old Leeds fan when watching this on live TV in Dublin. Still recall being amazed my hero Johnny stayed on the pitch! But Kev was even getting on my nerves, for feck's sake. Sock it to 'em, Johnny!
King Kevin v anyone on that Leeds team ? No competition: Kevin wins every time , if it’s football we’re talking about. But if it’s boxing - then it’s Leeds, every time.
Not only did Giles enjoy a legal victory v. the David Peace book but Dave Mackay also enjoyed one (v. the film version). As a Hollywood lawyer called Fred Leopold used to say, "If you have real people as characters they can have lattes and muffins but they can't say, 'Let's go for a f**k in the bushes'."
That Leeds team was incredibly gifted but spent more time proving how tough they were. Liverpool won so much more because they had much better discipline.Keegan was just closing people down. Giles and Bremner couldnt handle it. Keegan won the ballon d,or twice. Giles was a donkey compared to him.
No worse than any other. Chelsea were the dirtiest team at that time. The "dirty Leeds" tag was southern journalistic license and it stuck. No more in it than that.
Still think Leeds - Chelsea was the dirtiest game ever outside of South America and Eastern Europe. If played today there wouldn't be a player left on the pitch and some of em would be lucky to get off with an ABH charge.
Always REM LIKE IT OR NOT. TWICE YES TWICE KEVIN KEEGAN WAS RIGHTLY EUROPEAN FOOTBALLER OF YEAR. STICK THAT TO THE DOWNERS OF KEEGAN. IM NOT SAYING HE DID OR DIDNT DESERVE IT. BUT UNLESS YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU WOULDVE DESERVED WHAT KEEGAN GOT. 😂😂😂😂.IT MAY HELP YOUR JUDGING.!!!!
May I ask how old u are?..The game back then was physical and hard,but it was played by men,who were committed to the cause.. Unlike today's phony,corporate, expensive BS..
It wasn't rare back then. And he wasn't the worst by a long shot. Leeds are just an easy target for this kind of thing and always have been since Clough coined the phrase
It's when football was football every team in All 4 Top divisions then had hard men it's when football was at its best No Faffing about them days All Leeds aren't we 🇮🇨🦚✊👊
Anybody would be in a mood if Hunter was on his case. Revie must have told Norman to unsettle Keegan and Kevin was young and niaive in 1974 and took the bait.
JUST IN CASE YOUR REFERRING TO KEVIN Keegan .Not in his nature. WELL KEVIN ISNT NOR WAS NEVER A BULLY MENTALLY /PHYSICALLY. Rightly sent off but was a bit riled with things being said on the pitch to him. I reckon thats what made him SAME REASON AS michael the mercenary owen was sent of mu v liverpool 1all draw.he was going through and was rightly sent off. Im glad he scored equalised first before he left the pitch. We dont know the half of it.
Johnny giles would have been showen red card with VAR right so too liverpool manchester united or city wouldnt up with that sort dirty players thats why leeds are not well like im am a liverpool fan and im glad my home town of leicester given leeds a good hiding on their own patch 4-1
Cheap shot ........if it was Sunday league football, Giles would have got flattened! These players can always be hard when they know there’s a referee to step in and stop it!
Sunday league has refs unfortunately they get beat up by people who think there big and hard . Johnny Giles could look after his self . Trouble is today No respect for Refs at any level. In football you need a ref .
0:17 Johnny rolls up sleeves as if to say, if he was here now I'd do it again.. ;)
Johnny Giles was a cracking player, a joy to behold.
But a dirty sod. Keegan was trying to get at the ball and Giles floored him. At a Charity match!! That's Leeds, folks. And the stupid smirk on the interviewer's face. Pathetic.

Frank machin is the character in this sporting life based on the book by David storey and the film stared Richard Harris
One of the greats of Irish football.
And English football
@@derekmullings1507 your right sir and English football.⚽️🇮🇪
Murf asks Gilesy about hitting Kevin Keegan and Gilesy proceeds to roll up his sleeves 😂😂
Gold haha.
Immediately back to beast mode 😂
Ready to fight again 😂😂
Johnny knocked the moodiness out of him. Good man Gilesy
Keegan gave Giles a slap on the face when Giles was getting booked

The Clint Eastwood of Football
For a good 10 seconds before he was hit Keegan was going through everyone.
Keegan in a bit of a mood, I can imagine that - but he was probably upset that it was Shankly's last match, he adored Shankly.
Of course he shouldn't have done it(and let's be honest JG spun around txt book style and claimed KK,)but Keegan was racing around on a mission to kick as many Leeds players as possible..But then he met JG and was"ironed out"unceremoniously!!
shankly had gone on july 12th 1974

Stima assoluta per questa bandiera dei tifosi del Leeds: arrivederci John, riposa in pace e marcali a uomo finchè ti avremo raggiunto!!
Non é morto...sta ancora vivo😅
Johnny Giles Top Gentleman 👏 Leeds United legend 🦚🇮🇨 marching on together, we all love Leeds, keep fighting 👊✊🇮🇨🦚
When football was football
It was a good hit by Johnny.
To be fair Keegan got back up and didn’t make much of an issue with it neither did the Liverpool players, it was a different game then.
When John floors him one of the Liverpool players comes over and puts the arm around John and they have a chat. Anyone know who the pool player was?
Peter Cormack
Ali would-be proud of the punch Giles got Kevin with will have to see if keV gets up before the count of 10
Was a crazy little eleven-year-old Leeds fan when watching this on live TV in Dublin. Still recall being amazed my hero Johnny stayed on the pitch! But Kev was even getting on my nerves, for feck's sake. Sock it to 'em, Johnny!
Legend.
And Billy Bremner got sent off instead! whilst Johnny just whistled & hid. Dont mess with Leeds.
Problem was liverpool won the charity sheild that day🤔😂😂😂
John Giles innocent ,he made me do it
haha
🤣
Poor Johnny getting booked for that accidental coming-together. Never a foul 😂
😂😂😂 love this man
Keegan started it all - Smith did Clarke badly, kicking it all off, Keegan tried to do Bremner and then punched Giles who sorted him out
King Kevin v anyone on that Leeds team ? No competition: Kevin wins every time , if it’s football we’re talking about. But if it’s boxing - then it’s Leeds, every time.
Back in the good ol days they didn't toss you out of the game automatically.
Which version do you believe
Watch the highlights
I watched the last few tackles before the punch , and Keegan was going nuts...proper agro. Smack in the chops was probably needed.
Not only did Giles enjoy a legal victory v. the David Peace book but Dave Mackay also enjoyed one (v. the film version). As a Hollywood lawyer called Fred Leopold used to say, "If you have real people as characters they can have lattes and muffins but they can't say, 'Let's go for a f**k in the bushes'."
Keegan was in a mood as He puts it as a few days earlier he’d been sent off in European game in a case of mistaken identity.
well they all had that stupid brillo pad hair and taches LOL calm down
Yes I noticed the Liddypool players were loath to do anything after Kevin was chinned by Johnny.
Ah, back when men played the game, you could throw a devastating right hook,your opponent wouldn't milk it, and you'd accept your booking politely.
Nasty snide player, trying to hide the thuggery he used.
In them there days they just got up to prove they wasn't hurt .Now it's the polar opposite .Shame on most modern players
Of course he hit him, it's all on film. It would be very difficult NOT to lamp Keegan anyway
Love jonny giles class player
Any mention of the johnny giles charity stealing money??
That Leeds team was incredibly gifted but spent more time proving how tough they were. Liverpool won so much more because they had much better discipline.Keegan was just closing people down. Giles and Bremner couldnt handle it. Keegan won the ballon d,or twice. Giles was a donkey compared to him.
Same game as when Keegan and Bremner got sent off ?
Yep. How Giles stayed on is a mystery. He’d get about a five match ban now 😂
@@tonydalton459 Giles was never in the same class as Kevin Keegan or even Billy Bremner.
Come on, Leeds were one of the "dirty...ist" teams around in those days.
No worse than any other. Chelsea were the dirtiest team at that time. The "dirty Leeds" tag was southern journalistic license and it stuck. No more in it than that.
Still think Leeds - Chelsea was the dirtiest game ever outside of South America and Eastern Europe. If played today there wouldn't be a player left on the pitch and some of em would be lucky to get off with an ABH charge.

Giles should have been sent off for the punch.
No player deserves to get punched on a football pitch. Thank god the days of Johnny Giles are over.
May I ask how old u are?..The game back then was physical and hard,but it was played by men,who were committed to the cause.. Unlike today's phony,corporate, expensive BS..
Some people need it every now and then.
It wasn't rare back then. And he wasn't the worst by a long shot. Leeds are just an easy target for this kind of thing and always have been since Clough coined the phrase
It's when football was football every team in All 4 Top divisions then had hard men it's when football was at its best No Faffing about them days All Leeds aren't we 🇮🇨🦚✊👊
Anybody would be in a mood if Hunter was on his case. Revie must have told Norman to unsettle Keegan and Kevin was young and niaive in 1974 and took the bait.
Revie was gone. Clough was in charge. Nominally at least.
Think Johnny might have a selective memory here.
He can’t hit so no big deal. Keegan literally laughed about it.
Giles is always self-serving about the past.
keegan was always bloody moaning anyway! head down mumbling and slapping his arms down like a 2 year old hehehe
Little bully...
JUST IN CASE YOUR REFERRING TO KEVIN Keegan .Not in his nature. WELL KEVIN ISNT NOR WAS NEVER A BULLY MENTALLY /PHYSICALLY.

To be fair Keegan was very punchable.
…. Keegan much much better footballer …..it’s not pro boxing if it was giles would starve
Johnny giles would have been showen red card with VAR right so too liverpool manchester united or city wouldnt up with that sort dirty players thats why leeds are not well like im am a liverpool fan and im glad my home town of leicester given leeds a good hiding on their own patch 4-1
If VAR had been around then, Keegan would have been off before Giles had reason to thump him. 😂
Oh, right, and Tommy Smith wouldn't have been shown a red for scything Allan Clarke down from behind. Get thi blinkers off, soft lad!!
Nothing to be proud of
A thug punching a great footballer
He could have at least showed remorse
A great footballer punching a great footballer
@@micklally3654 punching a good footballer
He definitely deserved it. The Liverpool players didn’t even stick up for him either.
He wasn't a Scouser....that's why.
The most hated team ever
Which is the reason I love Leeds.
I met Billy bremner once couldn't meet a nicer guy ! - LFC fan
He was one of the dirtiest players ever
That Leeds United team were all thugs
Mick Jones, Eddie Gray and Paul Madeley never hurt anybody.
The rest of the team made up for the rest of them
Hard as nails but no thugs they could all play and had a never say die attitude particularly the Scots.
Different era. Every team had players who could dish it out. Tommy Smith, Ron Harris and Dave Mackay to name but a few.
Who wouldn't like to punch Keegan's mutton head
For what? Being one of the nicest and most gracious footballers in history?
