    Posting this earlier than last week.

    On ITV4 at 9am this morning is The Big Match Revisited. You are playing Villa again, but this time at The Vic.
    Can any of you guess your lineup from that era?

    I am guessing your team would have in it a couple of the following:

    Sherwood, Rostron, Callaghan, Barnes, Blisset

    Got to admit I love watching those games from the early 80s.

    It's also repeated an hour later on ITV4 +1

    I am guessing you should be able to see it on Iplayer later if you can't watch it this morning.

    Have a good day all, and enjoy the trip into the past if you can make it. <ok> <cheers>

    I won't say the result as H hasn't seen it yet <laugh>

    She was probably too young to see it the first time around <smooth old git emoticon>

    Happy days. Think I must have been there but don't remember the game. Pitch awful, I wonder how the likes of Barcelona would be able to adapt to it.
