Good morning.

Birmingham City's Gordon Taylor scoring a solo goal against Burnley in 1972. For those who didn't grow up in the 70s watch how the ball bobbles all over the pitch as he carries it upfield. Not like the carpets they play on today!

@FBAwayDays None of that, it's all shit.

Good morning, and happy Crimbo to you all. I hope he's been.

[James Hogg @JamesAHogg2]

Behold, four absolute bangers from the sublime Dave Allen.

This'll set you up a treat.

Good day.

[James Hogg @JamesAHogg2]

How about a little something from the 1969 Morecambe and Wise's first Christmas Special. A simple idea, beautifully executed.

Good day.

One of the first sitcoms I remember watching as a kid was Dad’s Army.

Fans will no doubt have a favourite line (“Don’t tell, Pike”, etc), but for me this is the Rolls Royce

Corporal Jones hears a choir singing and thinks he’s dying, much to the annoyance of Captain Mainwaring.
