It'll Be Alright In The Nineties - S1 E32 - Tony Blackburn and an unwell Dulux dog (30th anniversary of the Premier League with Rob from Premiership Years)

It's football's big 3-0 on the podcast this week as we celebrate the impending 30th anniversary of the inception of the Premier League with our special guest Rob from the excellent Premiership Years on Twitter! We look at the classified results from both the first and last game weeks of the decade, and consider such greatly missed phenomena as half-finished stadia, extremely low attendances and the usage of boot laces on shirts. We also take a look at some of the gimmicks Sky attempted to employ in order to sell their 'whole new ball game' to supporters up and down the country, and there's plenty of quizzes and trivia along the way too, as we come to the inevitable conclusion that football was just better in the nineties.

Also: Alex wears polyester in a heatwave! Stu's first FA Cup final! We all like vindaloo! The Flying Postman! And much, much more...
