While plumbing the depths of Youtube to turn up those unsettling opening titles from a 1991 edition of Match of the Day yesterday, we unwittingly unearthed another little gem in the shape of the intro to the first ever “Ford Super Sunday” programme – first broadcast in 1992 when Sky Sports showed up and ruined football forever more.

How many lesser-spotted yellow nylons had to die for Richard Keys to have that jacket made? Look at the bloody state of it!

Here we go – it was, quite literally, all downhill from here..

*Sigh* Remember when Forest used to be referred to as “hot-shot giants”?

Nope?

Anyone?
