Transcript
00:05The
00:32We have a look at the Arsenal team, they've made some changes and they've dropped the £65,000 centre-half
00:38back Ian Newer because Court is fit, so he's back on the side, Neil moves to centre-half, because of
00:43an injury to Armstrong, Easton has had to move to outside left again to let in Radford, and Fernell in
00:49the Arsenal goal is a former Liverpool player.
00:52So, although Arsenal haven't got an expensive centre-half in their side, they're still a pretty strong side.
01:01But when it comes to team changes, well we never think of Liverpool because they don't make any.
01:05They've only used 12 players this season, and of the 12 they've used, the one left out today is Geoff
01:11Strong, the former Arsenal player.
01:13So, it's the old familiar Liverpool team, the team that has made them favourites in the League, the Cup, the
01:18European Cup, Winners Cup, and almost everything including the Grand National.
01:22Well, they've got their supporters with them, it's a good day, the ground should be very holding on top, quite
01:27firm but very holding on top.
01:29And it should be a fine exhibition of football, so we're all set for the match of the day between
01:33Arsenal and the league leaders, Liverpool.
01:36And as we line up, we're looking for the Arsenal to kick off, as we bring it down, we send
01:42our best wishes to the Arsenal secretary, Bob Wall, who's in bed with a slipped disc.
01:48Well, Bob, I hope you've got a television set and you enjoy the game with the Westerners.
01:52Now, Liverpool, of course, have got their 12th man here, Jimmy Tarver, cheering them on from the director's box, so
01:58they're quite happy.
02:04To make accurate passes, because the intersection, the anticipation of all the pairs, so good.
02:09And now, this is St. John, and the former a fine save by Fennell.
02:22I'll be a revolt on democracy.
02:25Let's go!

02:33Oh!
02:45Gallagher in the corner for Liverpool

03:32Liverpool now beginning to create the chances
03:38The chance of Liverpool, Liverpool, goes way to our left, over to our right, Culligan takes the corner for the
03:44pool
