Brammie Steve Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 In 1971 Arsenal achieved the double. Derby took the League Championship trophy off them the following year then, (40 years ago!) Me and Mossy were at this incredible match. Even the highlights show just how much the Rams benefited from knowing what to do with set pieces. 40 years on is it time for Nigel to sit his team down and make them watch this again and again to learn from his dad's tactics? I reckon it could get us a dozen extra points a season! Seems like last week!

RodleyRam Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 one of my favourite clips of the glory years. My dad was at this game and used to make me watch match of the 70s to show how good we were once!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gritstone Ram Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Good footage but the players we have got now aren't fit to clean the boots of the team of 71 - 72. There is another couple of matches i've seen recently 4-1 against real madrid and 3-0 against benfica. One thing i did notice was roy mac pushed up so far it was like having an extra midfielder. No there's a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randombc Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 A team coming up from the second division and winning the title a couple of seasons after will never happen again unfortunately because of the money with the 'big boys' unless Derby get taken over by some Russian Trillionaire. Devastating this was before my time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCFCfranco Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 There's a clip somewhere of the ball being chipped over the wall and then smashed in. I reckon we should try that. There's a clip on tinternet somewhere but I'm on my phone so I can't post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall we went absolutely mental at the sheer audacity of it - and IIRC when we got home we got to see it all over again because it was one of those rare occasions when we were on 'Match of the Day'. I could easily have made that last bit up too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My memory of it is that Roy Mac was in the wall and peeled away behind the defenders to knock the ball in from the chipped free kick by Dave Mackay.

I could easily have made that last bit up too. You are right about being on Match of the Day, it was almost unheard of for a second division side to be on it at that time. I got chased through Blackpool after the game by some Northern toerags trying to nick my scarf. I haven't a clue why I remember this stuff, I can't find where I put my mobile phone five minutes ago!!

eddie Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Wasn't the free kick 'scooped' - and didn't the authorities make that kind of set-piece illegal alongside the Willie Carr two footed flick for Ernie Hunt to score? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wrong about Roy Mac being in the wall. He was standing to the side of it. It was a great chip rather than a scoop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
