I only remember the end of all this but I'm sure it'll bring back some memories for those a few years older.

I might be wrong here but I'm sure at the end of Match of the Week you used to get goals from elsewhere. Gerry Harrison did East Anglia, Hugh Johns the Midlands, Brian Moore London area and Gerald Sinstadt the North West. Anymore?

Yes, I remember all that-including Hull being part of East Anglia regarding football.

I think that was a later innovation - a bit like match of the day, when it started there was just the one game iirc

BT Sport are showing a few episodes every week of 'The Big Match' with Brian Moore from the 1976/77, and often show the Anglia game too with Gerry Harrison the commentator.
Very interesting to watch, with the awful pitches, standing terraces, old kits and back passes being picked up by goalkeepers, who more often than not are not wearing gloves, all very weird to see.

Yes, you must have been watching that weird pastime from the days before football was invented by SKY.

I could get LWT & a slightly fuzzy Anglia picture & in the 1970s The Big Match was on an hour before Match of the Week, so I got a double dose, much to my parents' distaste.
It was quite early on that The Big Match used to show the goals from most of the other regions after their game.

Never realised that the 'Knights' statue was Robert the Bruce - backed by Handel's Fireworks Music, very East Anglian. Didn't 'Bygones' with Dick Joyce used to follow 'Match of the Week'?

Or maybe Richard the Lionheart if you read the blurb here. Just reading about it is highly evocative of childhood though isn't it?
