Just watched a classic match between Liverpool & Arsenal.

League decider 1988-89 season.

I remember it fairly well, and haven't bothered Googling, but I think it was live on TV on a Friday night.

Arsenal had to win by 2 clear goals, and they did, scoring in 92 minutes to sink a weary Liverpool.

My allegiance was with Liverpool, mainly because they always had a good amount of Scottish players.

What a performance by Arsenal.

Oh, I've watched a few of these games recently, John Barnes never fails to disappoint.

Glimpses of class but many more of utter lazy looking dross.

I’ve tried to watch German football since it restarted, but I must admit Its a struggle to watch it without the crowd atmosphere. 
 

As Jock Stein once said....”football without fans is nothing.”

 

I tried last week, lost interest at half time.

Stuck a bet on today, just watched the scores on BET 365 site.

Oh, didnae win. 👎

How bad were the pitches 30/40 years ago in England, and up here.

Tonight, Saturday, starts a new version of classic family entertainment shows from yesteryear.

First up is Play Your Cards Right......................................:thumbs2

Ah, when Saturday night was a night the family all sat down and watched an entertaining/funny programme. 

Overall, not overly impressed TBH. 

Alan Carr's ok but it does show the genius of Brucie, and he was working with joe public.

I'd have went for Bradley Walsh. 

The game itself carried the test of time reasonably well, if it was on every week it might have grown on me.

Watching another of the Match of the Day programmes, featuring the top 10 of various categories.

This one, Top 10 Ballon d'or Winners.

Jeezo, these players remind me why football is so enjoyable.

The list was, in no particular order,................

Cristiano Ronaldo

Kaka

Luis Figo

Marco Van Basten

Lionel Messi

Rivaldo

Roberto Baggio

Ronaldinho

Ronaldo

Zinedine Zidane

The programme shows clips from all these players, most come to mind straight away and just remind me what a joy these players were.

Prick Baggio who cheated by diving his way through his career, most notably in the 1994 World Cup. 

Biggest laugh was him missing that Penalty in the Final of that Tournament. 

Wee cheating cnut.

Line Of Duty

Had never seen it although I knew it was popular.

I noticed it is available on the BBC Iplayer.

Watched the first episode last night and thoroughly enjoyed the Drama.

Need to watch them all now, maybe one a night.

Watched the second episode. Was so good that I carried on and watched the third. 

Fourth and maybe fifth tonight. 

Keeps me off the Forum for a couple of hours a day.
