- The Kick Off Match episode broadcast by Granada on 20th April 1980, featuring highlights of games played the previous day - Liverpool v Arsenal, Sheffield Wednesday v Chester and Norwich v Man United. The meeting between Liverpool and Arsenal was a league game in the middle of their FA Cup semi-final marathon.
Love football from these times,...it's a money obsessed racket now,....give me proper football from the 70s and 80s anytime....great times
football in the 1980s for me late 80s was magic. BHAFC down the Goldstone Ground. Magical days.
Arsenal and Liverpool played each other about 5 times in that month. FA Cup Semi Final where Arsenal eventually won at Highfield Road
Brian Talbot must have played just over 60 games in that season, quite amazing as he runs non stop every game just about.
Used to love the previews written on Ceefax and ITV Oracle. That was my world on a Saturday. Now we live in a world with kick offs on a Friday Night!
Sheff Wed keeper without gloves!!! Now, the keepers won't go out without hair gel.
Amazing stuff here - signs of a sports broadcaster trying to look towards the future and not really managing it. Fascinating watching the Kick Off Match shows from early 1980, not least because bits of the format seems to be changing every week at this point, as if trying out ideas before ITV's shift to Saturday night highlights the following season.
Elton Welsby hosted sport on Granada TV football, cricket, boxing, snooker, bowls and darts.
Brilliant thank you :-)
This would have been the third of five meetings in a month for these two teams, and seven in all for the season.
Loving these videos. Don’t suppose you have the Kick-Off showing the games from 3/5/80 including Bury’s 2-1 win at Blackburn do you?
When footballers were footballers. Now its 11 spoiled millionaires versus another.
Great fan of John Hollins during my London days. Watch him at Loftus Road, worth the entrance fee, on his own. Not out of his depth in this company of many greats.
Old shows? Big tie knots? Fellows chatting away while being introduced? Jumpers down as goalposts?
And the referee for the Liverpool game, George Tyson had a long career as a referee if I remember right. He was still taking charge of first division games in the early 90’s I think.

Excellent picture quality, was it HD-ified?l

That intro music is like something out of a bad porno 😄 great upload, BTW. Thanks.
any Blackpool fans remember a home game featured in around February / March 77 as a lot of division one games were postponed because of bad weather , i can,t remember who it was against , but expect it was a rare visit from the tv cameras. ( just did a check on 76/77 games for Blackpool , its either Blackburn on feb 12 or v Notts county on feb26 i would say, Bolton on march 12 only other game it could be , although Bristol rovers game on jan 22 possible. )
