Match of the Day to show classic games

Sticking to their mantra that football was invented in 1992, it will be Premier League games only


They probably don’t have the rights to show old first division games, something to look forward to though. :)

There should be a way to nominate games which can then get voted on for scheduling, Scotland v Holland 1978 would be good outwith Rangers games
 
ITV should show the Liverpool v Arsenal match from May 1989. The most dramatic ending to an English top flight season and a reminder of the good old days when live league football was free to watch on the telly.
 
Anything that involves having to listen less to that smug prick Lineker can only be a good thing I guess.
 
That game was - watched it at my cousins, Followed by Scotland c England the next day.

Was there a specific reason why the big match live wasnt on STV?

in those days the SFA could block transmission of games that they thought would stop fans going to Scottish games, e.g the home Leeds game was blocked in this country as Hearts were playing in Europe the same night.
