Its a great channel. Old football games, motor racing. Only gripe is sometimes during the games the "info" bar across the bottom gives away the result.

Although it does show "then and now". Saw some tackles sliding in where you just know if it happened now it would be red card and Ronaldo crying. Then they just stood up, checked their perm and carried on.

Its a great channel I watch it most days for an hour or to, it does show the differance in todays pitches, I just wonder what the likes of Bestie would have been like on todays pitches compared to the mud patches he played on
