It’s the anniversary of Gianluca Vialli ice skating in Tromso in 1997.
Feast your eyes on that pitch. Can’t ask for a better playing surface…

The opening titles for ITV’s ‘The European Match’ highlights from this week in 1993.
Things in this clip that I miss:

- Cup Winners’ Cup
- Jim Rosenthal
- That iconic theme music
- Our clubs in Europe on terrestrial tv
Simpler times.

This moment of genius from Jimmy Greaves is 61 years old today.
So much to enjoy here: the balance, the poise, and then the effortless finish.
