Yorkshire TV Goals of the Year 1990
Just been sent an email which reminded me of this excellent programme. Anyone remember it? Basically the highlights of Yorkshire football from 1990 set to music. The songs used in the programme still remind me of the goals they go alongside even now (and I can’t have watched it for years and years).
I’ve got it on video somewhere and will, one day, get round to sticking it onto a DVD.
Highlights (from memory)
Blades 5-2 at Leicester (and Leeds at Bournemouth) – Stevie Winwood – Back in the High Life. There’s a bit in the song where I can hear John Helm saying ‘Chapman....Lee Chapman for Leeds’ every time I listen to it and the line ‘we’ll drink and dance with one hand free’ always reminds me of Agana celebrating.
Forest 3-0 v Pigs and Luton 3-2 at Derby – Chris Rea – Road to Hell – Very, very sweet.
Blades 3-2 v Forest – EMF – Unbeliveable. Still don’t really understand Deano’s celebration when he gets the winner, a sort of dismissive wave at the Kop
That Leeds fan diving off the barrier when they score at Oxford.
Harry Bassett’s ‘if they want to bottle it it’s up to them’ speech after Barnsley
Lowlights
The 0-4 at Elland Road and the 0-2 v them at Bramall Lane where Strachan sits on the boards and does the Vinnie Jones impression.
Fat lad Hirst scoring lots of goals as the pigs bounce back. Their game v Oldham is set to Belinda Carlisle – We want the same thing and they beat someone 5-1 (Hull?) to Medley and Warnes – I’ve had the time of my life
