The final minute of Saint & Greavsie from today in 1989. Come for a couple of classic Jimmy Greaves gags and Ian St. John’s usual good luck message to a British boxer. Stay for the lads chatting in the dark as the classic theme tune plays. Glorious. ❤️

David Batty talking after missing the vital penalty in England’s defeat to Argentina at France ‘98 is one of the most impressive post match interviews you’ll ever see. No hiding. No excuses. No self pity. If anyone could deal with that situation, it was Batty.

A reminder of the last time a World Cup finals draw took place in the USA in December 1993, when Robin Williams stole the show by pissing about on stage and repeatedly making fun of Sepp Blatter. FIFA hasn’t invited a comedy genius to help out since.

Today marks 22 years since Des Lynam’s last moments as a football presenter, at the final of Euro 2004. Here he’s professional until the end, but has a glint of sadness in his eyes as time forces him to cut the broadcast short. The end of an era. ❤️
