Yellowhammer 84 Posted February 10, 2017 Can you remember match of the week on Sundays with Gerry Harrison?. Always seemed to stumble over his words and was accused of being Ipswich fan by city supporters who would give him stick.Not sure this link will work https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yWuAJn0KJdY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,520 Posted February 10, 2017 Good coverage of City matches and great to get to see a good part of the match again on the Sunday. All you get now is 2 or 3 minutes highlights if you''re lucky. What price progress? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

......and Smith must score. 1,311 Posted February 10, 2017 When a ball was over hit Gerry Harrison''s usual response was, " He''ll need a motorbike to catch that one ".I heard he was sponsored by Triumph [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drazen Muzinic 1,421 Posted February 10, 2017 Grew up with Match Of The Week and loved the local coverage especially as an appearance on MOTD was as rare as rocking horse sh1t.I remember sitting through the last few minutes of Farming Diary waiting to find out who was on and being very upset when Scum were featured.

Graham Paddons Beard 2,352 Posted February 10, 2017 "Magic" Gerry Harrison , as christened by John Bond, was great. Match of Week was the "regional" version of MOTD, shown on Sundays, but oddly I can recall Hull City being shown as a regional team - I think something to do with the ITV regions at the time. You always knew when we were on Match of the Week because there was a camera man on a massive crane behind the (Barclay or maybe River end I can''t remember) stand to give you the "behind the goal" action shot. It was usually freezing and he stayed up there the whole match. In those days they had about three cameras to cover a game. Bit different to Sky these days,.
