What a team the Brazil side of 1970 was. Best side ever ?
Only because they were the first team in colour rather than British Pathe B&W.In my eyes for sure...
I was actually supporting Scotland for that one () and can vividly remember Archie Gemmell's wonderful goal against the Dutch. I was 15 before England could be arsed to show up for the finals of a major competition1978 was the first World Cup I watched. Games after 10pm here on a school night felt like a real treat for an 11year old. Really enjoyed the tournament though since certain results have been subject of strong scrutiny ( Argentina-Peru as prime example).

That's another fine conspiracy theory blown out the water then.I was 6 in 1970 and our tv was black and white
