Radio 2, that takes me back! They used to have 2nd half commentaries in the 70s and 80s didn't they. From memory i think they would only say at half time which game they were covering. (Normally bloody Liverpool !) Though I do seem to remember listening to the whole of the Everton 1981 FA Cup QF replay midweek (I might be wrong though!)
Peter Jones, Bryon(?) Butler, Maurice Eccleston(?)I'm not one of these FOCs who thinks everything was better 'back in the day' (some things were, some weren't)but commentators definitely were!!!

Radio 2? Newfangled nonsense. It’s the Light Programme.

Listening to Graham Kelly announce in a boring voice ‘this is the draw for the 3rd round of the fa cup’ Ted Croker will draw the home teams and Bert Miilochip the away teams …then rattle of balls and Number 21 …pause then name of team.

They just read out the names and that was it.

Surely it’s the draw for the Football Association Challenge Cup

With the league game being Thursday night, can see this only being a late Sunday kick off or the Monday evening game.

Late Sunday kickoffs aren’t great for generating atmosphere are they unfortunately? @Manchester33
Was kiboshed by Sky choosing Thursday 5th for our league game meaning zero chance of a Saturday KO whoever we drew, sadly.

Saturday teatime could’ve been a great atmosphere.
