Thank you for that. I don’t recall seeing it before. Interesting how much pitches and stadia have improved since then You are right we had a tremendous side at that time. I was very lucky to see it.

And on a horrible, sticky, muddy pitch.

What a terrible playing surface and players had to play almost every match in those days! What a great team, so much skill and quality. Us old(er) boys really were spoilt......shame it didn't last!

I went to this game. Only time I have seen us win at Birmingham, despite witnessing plenty of draws.

Slade Merry Christmas Everybody over the tannoy pre match. Must’ve been fairly new then as that was released mid 70’s IIRC. Not sure why I find that notable, it’s all before my time as a late 80’s baby.

Feel fortunate that Burley’s Ipswich coincided with my school days, putting teams to the sword most weeks in the 2nd tier and that one season finishing 5th in the Prem in 2001, but I can’t comprehend a Town side that’s genuinely as good as they come nationally, and competitive internationally too. Doubt we’ll ever see that again.

Surprising lack of quadriceps definition on so many players in those days, not that its matters when you're as good as that!

In those days players had immense leg muscles, more so that today's players. Even Arnold Muhren who weighted around 10 stone had very strong, muscular legs.

Players today are built differently as the diet and training differ.

A great kit from Town here, I don't think we wore it often, here and West Brom way are two games Town wore it. Can't think of any others.

QPR in the late 70s was an orange kit job too, I think. By the time they came up in the 80s, we’d graduated to the red and black stripes.

Fixture congestion and too much pressure and too many games.

In March they were in the later stages of two cup competitions and a league championship challenge. Beat Villa three times that season as well.

Real shame they didn’t win the league.

It was injuries, that's the only reason.

Towards the end of the season were were without many of our top players for key games and had players like Steggles, Parkin, Turner, D'Avray coming in. Second Division players at best.

Burley doing his knee in January cost us as McCall would have been a good player to fill in in midfield when the injuries piled up.
