1960maaan Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) Yeah there's match of the day, and you can watch a lot of the Big Match on catch up, but this is a new one on me. Match Time revisited , currently showing on ITV4. They're showing Everton Vs Brum from 1981. I have no recollection of this program, I recognise Elton Welsby's dulcet tones , so that makes it seem familiar as I think he did the Big Match too, but the name rings no bells at all. Anyone remember Match Time ? Or even why it was on. According to Wiki, the Big Match was still on so not sure if it was an extra program or not. showings listed here. https://www.radiotimes.com/programme/b-wakhjz/match-time-revisited-season-1/ EDIT: Tom Ritchie just scored for Sunderland at Ipswich. and apparently it was on Granada. Now Ally McCoist playing up front with Tom, scoring at 18. Edited February 26, 2022 by 1960maaan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leveller Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 ITV had several regional football programmes. I remember living in Brum and watching Gary Newbon covering local games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I don't remember it. Being in HTV region, we got London games or occasionally Midlands. But looking at this it didn't seem biased towards one region.
