vulva Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 That videprinter typing the scores out takes me right back. Reading it out as they typed it, shouting the actual score in a slightly higher volume. West Ham ‘ONE’. Wednesday always used to concede in the last minute. Typically to either Shrewsbury or Coventry, usually Speedie with the goal. Only time I can recall a typing incident was Aldershot (a) in the Cup. (eight). Kids these days have no idea. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 If the BBC announced they were doing Final Score like that again, they’d get 10m viewers. What happened to the pools results at the end? That’s after waiting for the result from Dumbarton, who were always late. Used to rock up at Hillsborough and see the TV vans. ‘It’s on the box later’. Kin get in. Bet it’s not first match though. Always Everton. We will get 10 minutes at the end and they will flick to the top match on Division 1 (Championship to the kids). ‘Flick’? WTF did that come from? Straight to bed now lad, Big Match on tomorrow. Luton v Liverpool. Ricky Hill is a great player but Dalglish will ref the match with his fat harris. Didn’t they used to give a forecast for the jackpot after videprinter packed in (8 draws) like good/strong/flipping reight chance? 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
