This is the best aspect of watching old footage.The professionalism of the commemtary.In those days too the journalism was on a different level with unbiased insightful reports ,helping to bring the match to life to football fans ,who if they weren't at the match,would almost certainly not get to see it on tv,live or recorded highlights.
From a City point of view,i see so many examples of high level skill from our players which are barely mentioned in match reports,almost as though the reporter has never played the game of football, or doesnt fully understand it..at least not to the degree that they are able to explain what a push kick /side foot pass is,a half volley or a full volley,th e special skills involved in passing the ball with the outside of your foot ..with unerring accuracy and power as exhibited by Kdb ..i for one have never seen anything like that cross ,...not something ive ever attempted in a match ,lol..
Ive kept loads of match reports from the old days and there is no comparison with the amatuerish drivel produced today by sycophantic biased unprofessional laptop operators,masquerading as reporters...they ought to be ashamed of themselves .
