Sad to hear that former #Liverpool player Joey Jones has passed away at the age of 70. Jones was an #FACup final runner up with #LFC following their defeat to #ManUnited in 1977. The first final I remember watching on tv as a kid. RIP Joey . @FootballArchive

Happy 72nd birthday to #Arsenal legend Alan Sunderland. He played in 3 consecutive #FACup finals for #AFC. Losing in 1978 & 1980 but winning in 1979 where he famously scored the last minute winner👇. #AFC #COYG. @FootballArchive @touchofpowder7 @Wrightie7.
