CLASSIC SAINT AND GREAVSIE - 23RD SEPT 1989 - JIMMY GREAVES AND IAN ST JOHN-ICONIC TV FOOTBALL SHOW

The video clip from the iconic Saint and Greavsie show was recorded on the 23rd September 1989. Ian St John (ex Liverpool FC footballer) and Jimmy Greaves (ex Tottenham Hotspur footballer) are looking ahead at the derby games being played later that day and on this clip the Everton v Liverpool derby match and who will win. It’s classic Jimmy Greaves.

*Both* sadly died within 6 months of each other. As sad as death is, they will now be both be back together talking about what a "funny old game" football still is. *God bless you both!* Where today would the likes of "Football Focus" or even Gary Lineker's "MOTD" be without this programme?

23rd September 1989 - a date Man City fans will remember. I am a Man Utd fan though and United lost 5-1 at Maine Road. I started supporting United the season before.
R.I.P. Ian and Jimmy.

Thanks for this. Jimmy's goalscoring was outrageous. He started by scoring over 170 Goals for Chelsea Youth in his first two seasons aged around 16 years old :)

The good old days. These 2 were great. Now, both sadly no longer with us.

I’d love to think they are both pain free somewhere and having a laugh
