  • Football's too pre-packaged these days. Back then we had footballers who were not afraid to give as good as they got. They had real skills and heart - something lacking in football today. Most footballers are wimps compared to the footballers of the past. Falling over every 5 mins - PURLEEASE!. It got infected, as with most things, by money and greed - especially in the Premiership. But some of the lower leagues still stick to the old ways and skills.

  • yeah me too. the ATV version on sundays was called 'STAR SOCCER' and im still looking for those title sequences and music. this midweek match titles are great. when footie was magic.

  • i think this match was played at home park plymouth

  • @southlondon63 Too right, mate. The official theme tune of being allowed to stay up late on a school night.

  • this theme song reminds me of the Nottingham Forest glory years and their european cup days,what a team

  • I was at that match - Liverpool v St Etienne - and arrive home just in time for the opening sequence. Great night.

  • Strangely enough, this theme tune was also used in an American porn film called Frat House, made around the late 70s/early eighties. It was very catchy and I was sad when ITV decided to replace it with a new one around 1979-80. Anybody know who wrote it????

  • This could just as easily have served as the theme to any ITV sitcom, possibly starring Jack Smethurst or Alfie Bass. In fact all ITV football themes sounded like this pre-Jeff Wayne, I've got the 1978 WC theme and compared to BBC's latin guitar effort, it's all beer and chips and Harold Wilson lol.

  • .....when a european football night meant something......

  • Liverpool vs St Ettiene. Oh for the rest of this programme to be made available somewhere.
