Hi everyone! Can anyone read this? Not sure how these new message boards work. It's been an eventful summer of sport, what with the joy of the Olympics in Barcelona: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8d7tz2YK3A And the disappointment of Euro '92: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxUogBsOnOQ(recorded these off the telly with my camcorder, not sure about the squiggles think I pressed a button by accident) The excitement hasn't stopped there though. Tomorrow the football season kicks off as usual, but it's not just any football season. Starting this season we're going to be watching something called the Premier League instead of the First Division.  Been trying to keep up with the figures but they're just making my head spin. £305 million for broadcasting rights? Not sure how I feel about it to be honest, and I don't think it'll be a long-term thing. That being said, 60 live matches this season! Don't know how I'll be able to keep up. Been trying to set up my Sky dish for the last week ready for Super Sunday and Monday Night Football (very American!) Here are the teams for this season. I cut this out of the paper this morning, not sure why some of the badges are wrong, think I pressed a button when I was scanning it in:  I'm interested to know how fans of other teams think they're going to get on this year, but thought I'd give a run down of my team ahead of the big kick-off:  LEEDS UNITED CHAMPIONS OF ENGLAND 1991-92 Before anyone starts any suggestions of glory supporting or anything like that I've been following Leeds since the bad old days in Division Two (or Division One I suppose it is now? I think). Anything less than winning the title again or at least contending would be a disappointment. They've kept the title winning side almost entirely intact and picked up a like-for-like replacement for Gordon Strachan (probably his last season) in Arsenal's David Rocastle. Not sure about that record transfer fee though. 2 million quid for a footballer! The mind boggles. Any side that wants to get past Strachan, Speed, Batty, McAllister, Cantona, Dorigo, Wallace...I could go on but you get the picture. They're the team to beat imo. Also just casually smashed 4 past Liverpool in the Charity Shield last weekend. If Cantona doesn't win the golden boot I'll eat my hat.  Like I said I don't know much about how other sides are shaping up but that lad Alan Shearer signing for Blackburn is a big deal for a newly promoted side. Sheffield Wednesday aren't messing about signing Chris Waddle from Marseille. Man United have signed Dion Dublin but look like they want to try and win the league with a load of youth players. This will be Ferguson's last season. That Rumbelows Cup win last season just papered over the cracks. Saw this advert earlier in the week and remembered to set the video to record it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EFiPldOq9s Here's the first round of fixtures - remember, the Sunday and Monday games are on TV so if you can't get Sky, see if your local is showing it (or hang around in front of Dixons for as long as they let you) 15/8/92 Arsenal FC v Norwich City Chelsea FC v Oldham Athletic Coventry City v Middlesbrough FC Crystal Palace v Blackburn Rovers Everton FC v Sheffield Wednesday Ipswich Town v Aston Villa Leeds United v Wimbledon FC Sheffield United v Manchester United Southampton FC v Tottenham Hotspur 16/8/92 Nottingham Forest v Liverpool FC 17/8/92 Manchester City v Queens Park Rangers Thought it would be good to have a place to keep track of the results and events of the upcoming season as they happen for posterity - I get the paper delivered every morning so will write down the results and post the table every week. 30 years from now we'll be looking at this season and marvelling at how far we've come. Not here though, home computers are just an expensive fad that won't catch on long term.

The first results are in, fresh off the videprinter! Arsenal FC 2-4 Norwich City Chelsea FC 1-1 Oldham Athletic Coventry City 2-1 Middlesbrough FC Crystal Palace 3-3 Blackburn Rovers Everton FC 1-1 Sheffield Wednesday Ipswich Town 1-1 Aston Villa Leeds United 2-1 Wimbledon FC Sheffield United 2-1 Manchester United Southampton FC 0-0 Tottenham Hotspur Congratulations to Brian Deane on taking just 4 minutes to score the first ever Premier League goal as part of a double against a flat Man United side. I said they'd struggle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NM-L__UOjQ Other results of note include Arsenal conceding 4 second half goals at home against Norwich, with an uncharacteristic misjudgement of a high ball by David Seaman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Dco5TGmpBw Game of the day has to be the 3-3 between Palace and Blackburn. Not every day you see three goal of the season contenders one after the other in the same game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iazFkQee0Y0 And of course a routine home win for the defending champions. Don't want to hear any laughter about that Wimbledon equaliser. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4YjvrFNDY0 Hope everyone's ready for Super Sunday tomorrow! the sex ghost fucked around with this message at 21:04 on Aug 15, 2022 |

16th August '92 The first ever Ford Super Sunday has been and gone and it lived up to the hype imo. Unfortunately I must have pressed a button because I didn't record the full game. I got the opening credits though. Not sure about Nottingham's sporting tradition going all the way back to Robin Hood: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bXzES95zAA I watched the 2 hours of pre match buildup (riveting) then my Sky dish fell off the roof and I had to go out to fix it, only recorded the adverts at half time. Gotta hand it to Sky Movies - been saying I wanted to be able to watch Rocky V and King of the Kickboxers without changing the channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1iqYtWPfes I recorded the match highlights later though. Teddy Sheringham looks ready for the new season. Forest are in for a good season with him leading the line. Credit as well to the young lad David James making his debut for Liverpool after moving from Watford in the summer. Looked impressive despite conceding the goal and somehow not giving away a penalty by clattering Roy Keane. Don't know who that fella at the end in the knock-off Leeds shirt is either: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW657bLrOho Monday Night Football tomorrow, Man City v QPR. Not a fixture I think is ever going to be of huge significance in the future but this one should be a decent watch.

17th August '92 Monday Night Football has arrived on our televisions - the weekend is now 3 days long according to Sky. Lots of interesting details in the pre-match buildup - particularly useful to know Man City's phone number, opening times and season ticket prices. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLI3R9z97NQ  Lots of entertainment besides the game - we had the beautiful Sky Strikers, fireworks and a plane flying a banner over the stadium! You just genuinely do not know what is going to happen next. Undercover played Baker Street on the pitch at half time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5wJ2Hr_yqY Unfortunately I was so caught up in capturing events around the game that I couldn't get any footage of the game itself, apart from one of the goals, an absolute rocket from Andy Sinton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMVFH0W824U Here's the table after the first round of fixtures:

19/08/1992 The second round of PL fixtures have just wrapped up! 18/08/1992 Blackburn Rovers 1-0 Arsenal FC Wimbledon FC 0-1 Ipswich Town 19/08/1992 Aston Villa 1-1 Leeds United Liverpool FC 2-1 Sheffield United Manchester United 0-3 Everton FC Middlesbrough FC 2-0 Manchester City Norwich City 2-1 Chelsea FC Oldham Athletic 1-1 Crystal Palace Queens Park Rangers 3-1 Southampton FC Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 Nottingham Forest Tottenham Hotspur 0-2 Coventry City Results of note are Alan Shearer barging Jimmy Carter into the stands and scoring another beaut to beat Arsenal late on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2j6ZY4h0oGo David Hirst scoring twice to beat Forest and doing no harm to his chances of an England call-up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQYkd79yefA Niall Quinn got the first red card in Premier League history while Bernie Slaven scored two in two minutes to beat Man City (think I must have recorded some fantasy football thing on afterwards because it's showing a load of games that haven't happened yet, best ignore them): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6WyL7wLWZE&t=148s The real shock of the round though was Man United getting thumped 3-0 at home by Everton. Look out for Gary Pallister getting toasted by Robert Warzycha: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8iQbapIAQI 1 Norwich City 2 2 0 0 6:3 3 6 2 Coventry City 2 2 0 0 4:1 3 6 3 Everton FC 2 1 1 0 4:1 3 4 4 Queens Park Rangers 2 1 1 0 4:2 2 4 5 Sheffield Wednesday 2 1 1 0 3:1 2 4 6 Blackburn Rovers 2 1 1 0 4:3 1 4 7 Leeds United 2 1 1 0 3:2 1 4 8 Ipswich Town 2 1 1 0 2:1 1 4 9 Middlesbrough FC 2 1 0 1 3:2 1 3 10 Sheffield United 2 1 0 1 3:3 0 3 11 Liverpool FC 2 1 0 1 2:2 0 3 12 Nottingham Forest 2 1 0 1 1:2 -1 3 13 Crystal Palace 2 0 2 0 4:4 0 2 14 Aston Villa 2 0 2 0 2:2 0 2 Oldham Athletic 2 0 2 0 2:2 0 2 16 Chelsea FC 2 0 1 1 2:3 -1 1 17 Manchester City 2 0 1 1 1:3 -2 1 Southampton FC 2 0 1 1 1:3 -2 1 19 Tottenham Hotspur 2 0 1 1 0:2 -2 1 20 Wimbledon FC 2 0 0 2 1:3 -2 0 21 Arsenal FC 2 0 0 2 2:5 -3 0 22 Manchester United 2 0 0 2 1:5 -4 0

FORD SUPER SUNDAY has just wrapped up and the third Premier League weekend is at a close. Everyone who said that breakaway money leagues would result in non-competitive fixtures and boring games have been shown right up because it's been an absolute goal bonanza: 22/08/1992 Aston Villa 1-1 Southampton FC Blackburn Rovers 1-0 Manchester City Manchester United 1-1 Ipswich Town Middlesbrough FC 4-1 Leeds United Norwich City 1-1 Everton FC Oldham Athletic 5-3 Nottingham Forest Queens Park Rangers 3-2 Sheffield United Sheffield Wednesday 3-3 Chelsea FC Tottenham Hotspur 2-2 Crystal Palace Wimbledon FC 1-2 Coventry City 23/08/1992 Liverpool FC 0-2 Arsenal FC Wouldn't look too deeply into that Middlesbrough result though. Cantona should have had about 4 on his own, just need to improve the defending from set pieces and Leeds will soon be back to winning ways. Either way the Tudor Crisps Family Enclosure was rocking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPk7NdQTBf0 Oldham were 5-0 up against Forest before Cloughie's boys woke up and tried to make a game of it. Quite like that Gunnar Halle, one to watch I reckon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Lnit3SyTAE Sheffield Wednesday went 2-0 up (David Hirst has scored 4 in his last 2 and surely must be in the England squad for the friendlies in September), before Chelsea fought back and then went ahead 3-2. An 81st minute Danny WIlson equaliser saved the point (and embarassment) for the Owls. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xi8A0TdQtHA A feisty London derby between Spurs and Crystal Palace where both teams were reduced to 10 men after some off-the-ball naughtiness between Andy Thorn and Neil Ruddock. Don't like to see that simulation from Chris Coleman to win a penalty though. That nonsense has no place in the English game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9i23Agle1w FORD SUPER SUNDAY lived up to the hype again with Arsenal breaking their losing streak at Anfield against a flat Liverpool side. That young kid Ray Parlour is one to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpErrKMwhUM

26th August 1992 Fixtures are piling up already - 4 rounds of games in 10 days! Thought the point of a breakaway money league was to try and limit the need to cram as many matches in as possible for the welfare of the players. 24/08/1992 - MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL Southampton FC 0-1 Manchester United 25/08/1992 Crystal Palace 1-1 Sheffield Wednesday Everton FC 1-0 Aston Villa Ipswich Town 2-2 Liverpool FC Leeds United 5-0 Tottenham Hotspur Sheffield United 2-2 Wimbledon FC 26/08/1992 Arsenal FC 2-0 Oldham Athletic Chelsea FC 0-0 Blackburn Rovers Coventry City 0-1 Queens Park Rangers Manchester City 3-1 Norwich City Couple of standout results in midweek - Dion Dublin scored his first goal for Man United as they get their first win of the season: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gn8cTVOmHaA Andy Impey put QPR top of the league with an unbeaten record in the league so far. Early days but they look like a serious proposition at the moment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCH5aAUM-ko The real highlight though, of course, is Leeds responding to that blip against Boro in emphatic fashion with a 5-0 win at home against Spurs. Congratulations to Eric Cantona on scoring the first ever Premier League hat-trick and cementing his place in pub quizzes for all eternity. Feel bad for Thorstvedt on that first goal though. This new back pass rule is going to create future generations of goalkeepers who are expected to play the ball with their feet! Ridiculous. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjupk3NN3y4 Queens Park Rangers 4 3 1 0 8:4 4 10 -------------------------------------- Coventry City 4 3 0 1 6:3 3 9 Everton FC 4 2 2 0 6:2 4 8 -------------------------------------- Blackburn Rovers 4 2 2 0 5:3 2 8 Leeds United 4 2 1 1 9:6 3 7 Norwich City 4 2 1 1 8:7 1 7 Middlesbrough FC 4 2 0 2 7:4 3 6 Sheffield Wednesday 4 1 3 0 7:5 2 6 Arsenal FC 4 2 0 2 6:5 1 6 Ipswich Town 4 1 3 0 5:4 1 6 Nottingham Forest 4 2 0 2 5:7 -2 6 Oldham Athletic 4 1 2 1 7:7 0 5 Crystal Palace 4 0 4 0 7:7 0 4 Sheffield United 4 1 1 2 7:8 -1 4 Manchester City 4 1 1 2 4:5 -1 4 Liverpool FC 4 1 1 2 4:6 -2 4 Manchester United 4 1 1 2 3:6 -3 4 Chelsea FC 4 0 3 1 5:6 -1 3 Aston Villa 4 0 3 1 3:4 -1 3 --------------------------------------- Southampton FC 4 0 2 2 2:5 -3 2 Tottenham Hotspur 4 0 2 2 2:9 -7 2 Wimbledon FC 4 0 1 3 4:7 -3 1

1st September 1992 Massive transfer news! In a bid to rejuvenate their awful start to the season Spurs have signed Teddy Sheringham from Nottingham Forest. Hopefully he can provide some much needed firepower up front - spurs have scored 3 in their last 5. Don't know where this leaves Forest - think they need to bring a replacement in to replace those missing goals.   Looks like the immediate result for forest is, er, a defeat at home to man united, goals from Mark Hughes and nice young man Ryan Giggs Other results of note include: Blackburn going top of the league through the softest penalty ever awarded after a lovely bit of skill by alan shearer (4 goals in 5 now) 6 first half goals in the local derby between man city and Oldham. Check out that cheeky backheel by Mike Milligan

Never nice to see a season ended by injury, but Man United have carried on their recent bounceback despite Dion Dublin's broken leg against Palace. Bad news for Paul Elliott at Chelsea, looks like he might be out indefinitely after a mistimed challenge from Dean Saunders in the Liverpool game. Speaking of Saunders, looks like he's all but finished at Liverpool and is on his way to Aston Villa. After beating Palace 3-0 doesn't look like they need him but could be a useful addition up front. The footage got destroyed by my video recorder but Sheringham scored his first goal for Spurs against Sheffield United. Forest are still stinking the place out, The golden boot appears to be a 3 way fight between Shearer, Cantona and David White, and the less said about Leeds's start the better. As long as Cantona keeps up the fine work we'll be there or thereabouts at the end of the season though. We also had international action the other day in case you missed it, a friendly against Spain in preparation for the World Cup qualifiers in October: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7gGZmuTxQU It, er, didn't go well. Nice to see David White rewarded for his red-hot start with a first international cap, surely the first of many. Even more fixture congestion coming up with European games coming into consideration. Leeds will be playing in the newly formed Champions League, while Sheffield Wednesday and Man United will be playing in the UEFA Cup. We'll also keep an eye on Liverpool in the Cup Winner's Cup.

26/09/1992 Blackburn Rovers 2-0 Oldham Athletic (guess who scored again) Chelsea FC 0-0 Nottingham Forest (shite) Coventry City 1-1 Norwich City Crystal Palace 1-2 Southampton FC (comedy goalkeeping from Nigel Martyn. WARNING: very low resolution Iain Dowie) Ipswich Town 0-0 Sheffield United (Ipswich's keeper with a 2nd minute red card for Serious Foul Play, which carries a more serious punishment. Plus about 80 other bookings) Leeds United 2-0 Everton FC (2Easy, the season starts here) Liverpool FC 2-3 Wimbledon FC (More like Lobbie Earle) Manchester United 0-0 Queens Park Rangers (shite) Middlesbrough FC 2-3 Aston Villa (Villa's 3rd is an absolute beaut) 27/09/1992 Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur (should have been about 5-0) 28/09/1992 Arsenal FC 1-0 Manchester City EUROPE WATCH Absolute scenes in the Champions League this week! Leeds gave Stuttgart an absolute battering at Elland Road, scoring 4 but crucially conceding 1, meaning Stuttgart went through on away goals. But! After a quick read of UEFA's foreign player rules, it turns out that by bringing on Serbian defender Jovica Simanic for the last 5 minutes, Stuttgart accidentally fielded 4 foreign players instead of the allotted 3. UEFA have declared the result null and void and awarded a 3-0 win to Leeds, meaning the two teams are still level - they're playing a tie-breaker in Barcelona on the 9th to decide who goes through. Massive! Also Man United went out on pens to Torpedo Moscow and Sheff Wed got beat by Spora Luxemburg but went through on aggregate. Who cares. God bless Jovica Simanic and Stuttgart's inability to count to 3

Course they did. No bother. Carl Shutt is God. Unfortunately they then got a police-worrying tie against Rangers in the second round. First leg went badly.  Sheffield Wednesday lost 3-1 against Kaiserslautern, need a miracle in the second leg at Hillsborough. ENGLAND WATCH World Cup qualifiers got off to a rough start, drawing 1-1 with Norway at Wembley.
