World cup (non) qualifying 1974

I remember watching the England v Poland match with Clough's famous comment about the Polish keeper being a clown before the match . I can't see any of tomorrow's pundits saying anything as controversial.
There was an article in yesterday's observer about "Jan Tomaszewski: A man haunted for ever after being called a clown "

http://www.theguardian.com/football...ball/2013/oct/12/jan-tomaszewski-poland-clown

this is one of his quotes
In another, more sinister comment he said about the Polish FA: "When a brothel is not doing well, you don't paint the walls but change the girls.
 
Can remember that well myself, funny how we always seem to play Poland in 'the game' that matters, or maybe it just seems to appear that way.

There is one thing for sure and that's if anybody is going to fcuk up, England are usually the team to do it.
