The Barnet game was Mar/April 91.

It was on a system that was only available to a select few pubs.

I am fairly sure the Ship Inn in Irlam had it at that time.
It didn't last more than a year as Sky was just starting up then.

Anyway, great game it was.

I remember that, Tom Cahill and Warren Peyton scored unless I'm mistaken. Don't remember that bring on TV, just a very cold Tuesday night though. :)



8th January 2008.

Not broadcast on TV though:

I thought it was a Thursday night with Ryan Shotton scoring a late equaliser.



That was the Woking game in January 2008!

I hear there is going to be a comprehensive article in tonight's programme about our live TV appearances over the years, written by a regular contributor to this very forum.



Thanks for the plug!

i had been to snooker that night & caught the re-run of it in the early hours.

Nah, that was Woking I think. Ryan Toulson took a forceful challenge right at the death iirc.


Edit: Just seen that cult has already confirmed it and that, as I thought, the Kidderminster match wasn't live. :)

Pretty sure we were on Setanta 3 times and drew them all:

Woking (home)
Rushden &  Diamonds (away)
Weymouth (away)



Wasn't a 2-1 defeat at Stevenage Borough in November 2007 also broadcast live by Setanta?

I recall Gary Scott having a nightmare at left full back that particular evening!



I remember that Stevenage game. It was an absolutely freezing cold Monday night. Paul Merson was holding court in the bar afterwards whilst a load of Arsen I mean Stevenage fans hung of his every word. Jimmy Hill will remember for his missed train debacle...

Didn't we play Luton in their last season of the Football League live on tv in the FA cup a couple of years ago...

Won an fa cup game on live tv? When was the last time we won on tv?



(i) No.
However, we've only ever had one of our FA Cup matches broadcast live on TV and that was Huddersfield Town back in 1988.

(ii) Brian Flynn will have to confirm this one...but I suspect that it was an away match at Telford United during the 1994/95 season.




I do apologise most profoundly.

That should have read 1990.

Ballers - I will be wearing a hairshirt at the Hinckley game on Saturday....
