I've rescued my collection of VHS tapes from a depths of the garage and I'll be uploading the various Alty clips I have onto YouTube - quite a few interviews are in here somewhere and not all BBC so I guess they wont have been on the DVD of Alty TV clips that was produced a few years back
Here's the first one...

Told you it was brief. That's as much of that kit I can take though :)

I think that's from the game where the main stand was invaded by a horde of Stockport County fans, who were there to hurl abuse at Lincoln's manager who'd just left them for Lincoln - the chap being interviewed at the end. Colin someone?

That's the one.
Tuesday, 8th September 1987.
A goalless draw played out in front of a crowd of 2,398, a good proportion of whom were County fans who had just come along to berate Colin Murphy.
Lincoln City went on to win the Conference that season.
I suspect that it was also the season when that bizarre 'test' rule was brought in by which you couldn't be offside from a free kick.
All of which was ideally suited to Murphy's 'route one' style of football at Lincoln.

Colin Murphy was a legend. It had nothing whatever to do with his ability as a manager (he taught John Beck everything he knew) but rather the style of his programme notes. Boy could he ramble !
I don't suppose any of you programme buffs out there have got an example of Murphyspeak in your collections that you could upload ? Younger Forumites deserve the opportunity to sample the work of a tortured genius !

Are you sure about the date - I recall this being right at the start of season 87/88

Apologies, Paul, you are quite correct.
It was Tuesday, 8th September 1987.

Phil,
As requested, here's a sample of Colin Murphy's literary style:
''You, me, we all of us, have been forced to breakfast on travesty, lunch on objection and insult, dine on inflicted pressure.
''High tea we daren't sit still long enough to take and by supper we were still expected to have been victorious.''
Is he Jacko's prose guru, by any chance...?!

New clip... a bit of Tommy Doc...

I seem to recall seeing us get absolutely mullered at Sincil Bank 5-0, I presume that was the season.

You're not wrong, Uncle G.
Saturday, 26th March 1988, to be exact.
Jeff Johnson was Alty's manager by that stage of the season, following the departure of Tommy Docherty in January of that year.

Ahhh bless, the hard of thinking reverts to abuse when threatened by the versatility of his native tongue.

Another short video - and one that will bring back great memories of when Alty were the best non league FA Cup side...

I am greatly relieved to have missed all of Dochertys games as Alty manager. Stuck in the wilds of India at the time as I was, I never witnessed it I find it and consequently find it quite easy to pretend it didn't happen.

Well, I suppose that it wasn't all bad.....
After all, we did 1-0 win at Macc in the GMAC Cup whilst he was in charge, in our first competitive fixture against the Milkmen since March 1982 (owing to them being in a league below us for years).

Fantastic clips thanks so much

This is a great nostalgia-fest in any case, but go to about 7m 25s, and they're in the car park at Chequers before getting the bus to Wembley...
