Starting this week ITV4 are showing a series of editions of 'The Big Match' from the 70's and 80's.

Proper footbal from before all this all seater Premiership nonsense. AND you can gaze in awe at Brian Moore's enormous egg shaped shiny head.

This week, Spurs v Man City and Barnsley v Wolves from '82.

Check out ESPN Classic, Sky channel 442.

10 pm every weekday evening they have a classic, generally from the 70s,80s,90s.

And if you're a bit of a dole dosser then they have some quality repeats on during weekdays.
