      Pre-season training in the early 1980s: running up and down Welsh sand dunes until you vomit:

        Back before PC went M, who needed the Euros? There was ... Football in Hot Pants.

        Two minutes of jaw-dropping newsreel, with a commentary consisting of rejected Alan Partridge lines.

            The guy that films the Bath City matches about to return the ball with a header.

            Never used to get that sort of graffiti in the good old days either...

              Lovely bittersweet story about this photo here.

                  That's great, Ray. Cheers for sharing.

                    It's a lovely story and an outstanding photo.

                      An unusual piece of social history: unedited footage (not broadcast) from Old Trafford, for 15 minutes before the League Cup final replay between Liverpool and Forest, 1978.

                      I was looking for the game itself on YouTube, but found this instead. It includes quite a few features of "old" football, that don't normally make it into highlights packages, e.g. the tinny tannoy (feel free to play "name that tune"), the pre-game formalities (none, unless you count the somewhat incongruous Liverpool wave), numerous health and safety violations, and a proper rendition of YNWA that you no longer get i.e. one that doesn't depend on being led by muzak, but instead totally ignores it.

                        Agree - a touching and poignant tale.

                          Very nice goal by Kashiwa Reysol U17s v Paris St Germain U17s. Patience, patience, patience, then... check the replays from behind the goal to see how much the shot bends.

                            Montedio Yamagata's stadium, three weeks before the start of the new J-League season.

                              No pictures of Sunday's aurora for this or the astronomy thread, people?

                                Dick Laan's imaginatively-titleed Voetbal is pretty cool. Unfortunately all I can find publicly available is this excerpt with somebody's music and an annoying flicker effect applied. But still. A very Modernist short about a HFC (Haarlem) match, from 1928.

                                  Newcastle vs. Millwall 6.5.89

                                  Last home game of a horrific relegation season. Two remarkable goals. One bloke invading the pitch with a classic SACK THE BOARD bedsheet. An utterly unheimlich group pitch invasion, conducted at strolling pace.

                                            Despite a few dead links, there's still some cracking stuff on this thread, so here's a bump.

                                            And the 1966 ECWC semi final between Borussia Dortmund and West Ham (full game). Commentary in German, meine Damen und Herren.

                                            Watch the first two minutes for a goal and polite pitch invasion.

                                              skimmed through the thread to try and see if i had posted my favourite football photo of all time, but couldn't find it amongst the dead links. newcastle at roker park in 1992, liam o'brien shoots, and is the first (and apparently only) person to react..

                                                  Is that the ball just above the keeper's head?
