I can remember watching the Chelsea V Leeds FA Cup final replay with my Dad and 3 brothers (all Chelsea fans) - it was the first time Leeds made me cry (not the last time either).
We had the first (rented) Colour telly (1974) on our street and the 1974 World Cup final was very popular with our neighbours - there were about 20 of them in our small front room watching it and I had to sit on the floor. (This is how the 4 Yorkshire men sketch starts :-)) I'm 48 btw (average for Leeds fans I believe) Ossie > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2010 11:31:13 +0000 > Subject: [LU] Earliest match on TV > > Verner's recollection of watching the '73 FA Cup Final on TV (colour in > 1973?!
