"Watch Classic Matches Again"

[Somerset Blue]

36 years ago today. Goals from Trevor Steven and Adrian Heath give us a comfortable 2-0 win over Man Utd in the Charity Shield. And it was the last football seen on our screens until the new year!

Was at this game, Lineker's debut…happy days!

Gordon Lee's last season, finished 15th, 3 points of relegation.



And we're on, Sunderland away. Checked the result, worth a watch.

Was this Gordon Lee’s first game in charge?

I've had a look, he apparently officially took charge the day after that match.

With hindsight it was a bit of a strange appointment, I remember me dad wanting Clough! But maybe John Moores just wanted to play safe.

10 Feb 1962 - two-all draw with Burnley at Goodison, a week before the FA Cup defeat at Turf Moor posted above. Lovely opener from Roy Vernon, who also got the equaliser:

I had seen these goals plenty of times before but not since this was first broadcast had I seen the whole show and worth watching to see how Sheedy does in central midfield rather than on the left. Typically for us they finish it with a 'down memory lane' montage at the end from the 1970s when we barely ever beat City.

So do I, a big meaty challenge and the players just get on with it, no rolling around like they've been shot.
