Nicki's soulmate Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 4 hours ago, downendcity said: Sant & Greavsie was a great double act. St John was an underestimated player and a very important part of Shankly’s team with which Liverpool’s fortunes were transformed, but Greaves was an absolutely great player - probably the best goalscorer I've seen ( only saw him on telly unfortunately). Ive seen quotes by defenders of his era, who said that after 85 minutes they’ve been pleased with themselves as Greaves didn't get a kick all game. 5 minutes later Greaves had scored twice. Saint scored the winner in the 65 Cup final against Leeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downendcity Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 23 minutes ago, Nicki's soulmate said: Saint scored the winner in the 65 Cup final against Leeds One of the early cup finals I remember watching on telly as a youngster. The first one I can definitely remember watching was the Spurs double winners in 1961 when I was 7. Watched with my friends, as we were pretty well the only family with a telly back then! At half time we all used to run out into the road to re-create the first half incidents. The following year Spurs won again and by coincidence, Greavsie scored in that final.

Kingswood Robin Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Very sad indeed. I loved watching Saint & Greavsie as a kid in the 80's, football meant everything back then. They also presented us with the trophy at our first Wembley appearance. An unforgettable day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwhitepurple Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Great pair, great chemistry. Wont find that these days, people are picked for jobs not because talent anymorr but to tick boxes. Latest example - dermot and alison itv disastrous. Picked for reasons not talent related Rip you legend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashton_fan Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 I found this complete episode of Saint & Greavsie from 1989, it was highlighting the first division championship race between Arsenal, Norwich and Millwall. Shows what a different world it was before the Premier League arrived, miss the old Div 1 in some ways, as Millwall showed all teams had a chance of winning in those days.

Anyone know the answers to the competition questions near the end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
