Mole Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I have recently acquired a VHS video called 'Life With The Owls - At Home and Away' - hopefully nothing to do with a poor Australian soap opera. According to the case it's a behind the scenes video, featuring our home game against Luton, and away game against QPR in November 1986. I had a lot of the old Wednesday videos at the time, but I haven't come across this before. Is anybody able to convert this from ye olde VHS to a more modern format? Better still if you're able to upload it to YouTube for everyone to see, that would be awesome. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

York_Owl Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Good watch that. Was at both those games. QPR I remember we could have been four or five down at half time but good comeback in the second half. Weird that I can remember that but nothing about the last game I went to! Real shame Wilkinson didn’t getting the financial backing he needed to improve the team. Surely we would have won something had that been the case. Great manager, great times. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Since 1971 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I bought it in 1986. It was a pretty poor effort for a club video back then, embarrassing at times in terms of production and some very wooden interviews. Maybe has more interest now as dated and yes, memories of a great team. If the board had backed Howard Wilkinson, I agree we would have won something. He was years ahead of his time with player fitness and conditioning, attacking full backs and pressing and closing down the opposition from the front. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to think at that time in the 1980's, HW was getting stick off the likes of Kevin Keegan and Malcolm MacDonald by saying that his approach on how the game should be played is Anti Football. Well HW certainly had the last laugh on KK a few years later by winning the League Title dare i say it ' Leeds United '. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogers Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 A real glimpse of the past and the way things were at Hillsborough; it seems like we never really moved on from those pests and lived with the times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
