Astle, already in my bad books for Wembley 1968 cemented himself further into my hate list by missing a sitter against Brazil in 1970. He got a bit of a reprieve by scoring a debatable goal against Leeds at Elland Road which let us open a gap on our way to the title that year.
Bad day that!!Viv bloody Busby!!
No reprieve for Jeff really Tommy as that game was the following 70-71 season so didn't assist us at all!!
Really? I'm off to check. I've had it in my mind that Astle scored a dubious goal beating Leeds 3-1 putting paid to Leeds keeping the pressure on us.

Stand corrected. That was the goal I'm thinking of but was 70/71 season.
No need whatsoever to apologise Tommy,it was a long,long time ago mate!!
That game was on the big match revisiited do they only have us on when we play rubbish ....?
