727 - Remember '73

The World at War - remember ‘73
The Likely Lads came on before Pot Black
The Generation Game - good game, Brucie
Power cuts and candlelight, the latest track
Placed on the turntable by Tony Black-
burn. Burning oil became costly, thanks Sheikh
Yamani, now our money cost a pack-
et. Inflation, stagflation didn’t make
Too much impression on me; wide awake
Only after the News; stayed up to see
Jimmy Hill’s chin wag, Sunderland attack
Leeds in the Final, Shilton’s great mistake
Against Poland, ensuring Germany
In ‘74 wouldn’t let Bob Moore back
