    Thanks soooooo much for that. Not seen it in ages but now we've watched it another 4 times as my 8-year old son has not stopped laughing. Great stuff.

    Oh if only we had Mr George Banjo to entertain the fans at Oakwell at halftime.He would no doubt help increase attendances and the team would be much higher up the league.

    And if only Jay Mac could do the deft cut-back with his left foot like Wilf "the Winger" Finney.

    When folk talk about the Matthew's Final I think get over it, you just need to look at the defending to say the bloke did nothing spectacular at all. By 1960s football was getting better but before then looked dire.
