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 in 1991, Yorkshire Television infamously cut away from Sheffield Wednesday’s celebrations, when other ITV regions stayed at Wembley. Instead choosing to show a 1986 recording of ‘War of the Monster Trucks,’ leaving thousands of fans fuming at home.
