We used to play this gane when listening to the results on the radio , that the tone of voice would tell you if it was a home , away or draw..you had to name home , way , draw before Tim had finished each result
You got the cue for a home win halfway through Tim's naming the away side , with an old fashioned schoolteacher's 'Could do better' inflection
A Draw was similar, with an upbeat home team score, followed by a pleasantly surprised away team naming !!
An away win was usually clear from the moment Tim pronounced the home team's name in a flat tone of voice, then you just knew that the away team's name would scintillate !!
Tim will be , for me , always up there with winter afternoons where Bill Mclaren would be doing the rugby ("This kick wull huv tu be u reel monster" !!)
Pure nostlagia but who gives a shit !!! Happy days !
There's a skit on that, somewhere. Whereby you think from the tone it's going to be a draw and its
's a home, etc.
Quite weird actually.

Always think of a bike pin.
For all the talk about the Merseybeat, two of the three best bands of the Sixties came from London (The Kinks and The Rolling Stones).No problem with him saying no (although at 80 years old they shouldn't have given him the choice) but then to say no and slag off the BBC for making the move is out of order. Not like the corporation revolves around him is it?
I get fed up of the Daily Fail's campaign to find every excuse to knock the Salford move. After all, there's far more creative talent up in the North than darn sarf. I mean, name a great London band? The Kinks yes, then you're down to the Dave Clark fucking Five.
