FA Cup: Liverpool v Newcastle, 1974...

edited to add....

Poem by Toby Jones

Liverpool v Newcastle FA Cup Final 1974

The Geordie Boys were full of talk
But come the hour they couldn't walk
For Redman played the finest words
And Supermac he wasn’t heard

We closed them down and left them dead
Just chasing shadows all in red
Smithy crossed and Keegan's boots
Struck hard and nothing McFaul could do

Then Big Bamber took the stage
With body swerves the second came
Big Alec’s goal offside was ruled
But history shows the goal was true

We gave the black and white a class
Of football that none have surpassed
A dozen passes Keegan scores
And heaven’s knockin’ at our door

Shanks he waved up to the Kop
And Coleman’s words in lights they shone
“Keegan 2 Heighway 1
Liverpool 3 Newcastle None!”



ps. ESPN Classic is Sky 442, not sure if it's available elsewhere!!
