When Fred mentioned the league cup final that match went to a replay which was another success for Liverpool. Wives and girlfriends an acronym which would become famous 25 years later
remember Fred Dinage on the telly talking to Lawrie Mcmenemy about a golf game. He "I was terrible - the only good balls I hit were when I trod on a rake"
I remember that. Must admit Fred was different in his own way. To me didn't matter who was hosting they always made you feel welcome. They always were true professionals and made a point of welcoming the younger viewers

Some of this ie talking to the players and managers in the hotels at Breakfast was normal on World Of Sport but only on FA Cup Final day and on that 1981 League Cup Final the original Wembley game was highlights on BBC
