Old Gold Soccer

By: Kyle Patterson
  • Summary

  • Old Gold Soccer explores the golden years of Australian soccer from the first World Cup qualification by the Socceroos in 1974, through the tumultuous times of the National Soccer League from 1977 until the great reformation of 2004. That's when New Football replaced Old Soccer. KP & Blakey (Kyle Patterson and Greg Blake) revive their broadcast partnership after a 30-year hiatus to look back and cast forward from the Old Soccer era to the New Football future.
