Benny The Ball Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Would I be correct in recalling the Bolton Sheffield United game in 1970/71 as being on Granada ? Sure it was that game - Remember it because I was there and as young kids we watched ourselves waving at the camera by the corner flag when it was shown the next day and am sure that was the game that Ian Seddon scored a cracking goal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about Granada ? Mine was that August day in Blackpool. I've got it in my mind also that it was West Brom at home in the green and yellow kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mona Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 In 68 my dad bought a colour tv he was a Leeds fan,so I guess I saw those games and Burnley for some odd reason but i recall my dad enthusing about the lion and the plumber and telling me about the best match ever obviously the 53 final So I’m guessing we were playing Preston and it was televised tho still convinced it was in black & white ???

Walkden White Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Happy memories of the Sunday afternoon Granada programme hosted by Gerald Sinstadt. It was always a thrill when I could watch highlights of a match I'd been to the day before. Used to watch it wearing my scarf - yes I know! The Sunderland game stands out because of that header and Gerald Sinstadt saying something like 'what a happy boy' as big Sam celebrated.

Moderators Zico Posted May 9, 2019 Moderators Share Posted May 9, 2019 given the home tie was my first actual game, guessing it must've been the Southampton FA Cup replay in 92, seem to recall watching it, but not 100% sure it was on TV that night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton in the 4th round of the FA cup in 1992 when all their chosen games were frozen off. Took my girlfriend to that for her first and last experience of a Bolton match. Treated her and went posh in the Manny Road seats. Cost me £5.50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farrelli Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I remember the Newcastle first FA cup replay being on soortsnight in 76 (0-0). I also recall that we were usually rubbish when the TV cameras were involved. The big van outside Burnden was always a great buzz usually followed by our worst performance of the season. The Spurs win in 77 was a notable exception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
