Tonight I chanced upon a 1967 TV documentary presented by Clement Freud, based entirely on the then imminent FA Cup tie between US and THEM, and football in our fair city in general.
Catterick, Shankly and fans were interviewed, all being asked whether results were more important than style.
Every red said results were the ultimate, every blue said style mattered.
That was fifty years ago.
