Nothing really too new from the Charlton years VHS or reeling in the years so far apart from up to date interviews. Was good to hear lineker's take on it all. Was enjoyable all the same. You still get goosebumps but also think how fine the margins were, especially in euro 88, in making a semi.
Any ybiggers spot themselves from back in the day?

A young Proud and Loud was on it twice. It was probably the last time he was seen with a head of hair.

I'd take a guess that Scotland still bear a grudge over that. If either us or the Dutch had scored a winner and it had finished 2-1, there'd have been a three way draw between Austria, Scotland and either us or the Dutch to see who got the single last 16 spot remaining, because all three would have had identical records. But because of the luck of drawing into the group that played last, we knew we were grand with a draw, so that's the way it ended. Of course, if Egypt had equalised against England, all four teams would have been together on exactly the same record, across the board. Then all four places would have been determined by random draw. At least now they use fair play points.

Was there a team song before Euro 88?
At the start of the show it showed the team singing on the late late show, we are the boys in green, but pretty sure that was before Italia 90.

Michael Carwood and Boys in Green was the Euro88 song. Still my favourite football song. There was a version for Italy as well.

Even as a child, obsessed with all things football, it made me cringe in a way that has never been equalled. I’m sure it would have been used in Guantanamo.

I'm sure you loved this one. The greatest football song, no actually, THE GREATEST SONG EVER COMPOSED. Johnny Aldridge, showed the Maltese That he hasn't lost his touch He's holding back now For the craic now Until the day we get revenge on the Dutch Ronnie Whelan, Had them reelin' The Russians have confirmed it as a fact To ensure that they don't meet Ireland They're trying to change the Warsaw pact |

It was good to see that Egypt side finally get a bit of long overdue praise. Lot of people back in the day thinking they were total jokers and drawing with them was a disgrace. It was also interesting to hear Aldridge claim they basically gave us a serving of our own medicine - i.e happy to cede possession and apply constant pressure.

I don't think it's possible to cede possession and also apply constant pressure. Unless you're happy to frantically chase and harry your opponent all over the pitch without any intention of actually winning the ball.

Eh? That was our game plan under Charlton for the guts of a decade! Boot the ball up into the corner (cede possession) and then chase after it (applying pressure). I believe there may even have been a technical term for it, what was it again, oh yeah, 'putting 'em under pressure'!
