It was on the BBC, early 90s.
It was basically a football fanzine in a half hour TV show format, hosted by some bloke from Brookside if I remember correctly. I think Frank Sidebottom made the odd appearance.
A kind of pre-cursor to Skinner & Baddiel and Fantasy Football League.

Yeah I remember it well, quite a decent show.
Shelley Webb (wife of Neil) was on it too.

It was decent, and interestingly enough the opening credits featured Stoke conceding a goal, a 1-0 defeat at Leeds Road v Huddersfield where their winner got stuck in the stanchion.
(and yes I'm a sad twat for being able to remember that, but in my defence it was one of my first aways!)

The first being Huddersfield away the year before and the second was the Autoglass Trophy Final.

By dad wrote me a doctors note so I could leave school early to go to the game, my mum found out and went mental. What a dump Leeds Road was as well......
