Arsenal 3-0 Anderlecht, Inter-Cities Fairs Cup Final 1970
Arsenal had lost 3-1 in the first leg of the Fairs Cup final out in Belgium. But Ray Kennedy's late goal had given the Gunners hope. And their home form in that ...
I once saw an ABC News (U.S.) program that explained why so many of their
surviving broadcasts, as late as 1973, were in black and white: Because
that's how they recorded station breaks, otherwise they taped over the
broadcasts, not thinking anyone would want to see them decades later. The
Madison Square Garden Network likes to demonstrate this with a broadcast of
a New York Rangers hockey game from 1975, which ends, and after a flash
goes to one they played in 1972, recorded on the same tape.
@chesneyincognito You are so right. One of the problems back then is that
finals of the lesser Euro comps were not always shown live, so do not live
in everyone's memory. I think that this final got highlights coverage and
no more, either later in the evening and/or the following Sunday's Big
Match programme. Some Euro finals clashed with domestic matches, for
example Man City's Cup Winners Cup final victory took place the same night
that Chelsea beat Leeds United in the FA Cup Final replay.
@davidgbarron True, but there were still lots of black and white broadcasts
going on for various reasons in the early 70s. For a number of months in
season 1970-71, The Big Match reverted to black and white after one season
of colour due to a technicians strike. Also there are a number of games
broadcast by the BBC at this time that were covered simultaneously in both
B&W (BBC1) and Colour (BBC2 test broadcasts).
Nice post! You are right about Brian Moore although I suspect he screamed
during the last goal just so he could be heard amongst the noise! The
common consensus among Arsenal fans that were there that night was that it
was probably the greatest match in terms of atmosphere at Highbury. Not so
much of a library that night! ;-)
Hahaha, "Stupid name for a competition"...so true. What does that even
mean? Bummer UEFA doesn't recognize the Fairs Cup titles as legitimate,
meaning we only have one Cup Winners' Cup in our trophy cabinet to show for
all our European efforts. That needs to change.
Wonderful!!! Aged 8, my first season following the Arsenal, I was there
that night with my dad. We usually stood on the Clock End (6 shillngs(30p))
but we had seats (30 shillings (£1.50) each) in the lower tier of the East
Stand for this one. Thanks for posting.
@basilcruncher You're welcome. I just think it's a pity that many in the
general football world (Arsenal fans apart of course) aren't aware of this
success. It was an excellent comeback.
The one thing I cannot work out is why this game survives in black and
white. Colour Television was already up and running in the London ITV area
for several months.

If ALL and ONLY Black countries in 1965 opened their borders and let
hundreds of millions of non-Blacks into their countries, and then 90 years
later, Blacks are expected to be minorities in the countries that let
non-Blacks in; that’s not done by accident. It’s obviously a plan to wipe
out the Black race. AKA genocide. This is what’s been done to my people,
White people. It IS genocide.
