Ian St John and Jimmy Greaves take a look back at the midweek internationals, look ahead to upcoming European action and profile Leeds United & St Johnstone.
The programme features reports on the re-unification of the German football team, Peter Shilton's testimonial match, the art of celebrating a goal and when is an own-goal not an own-goal?
Jimmy Greaves was suffering with flu at the time of this broadcast and somebody had the brilliant idea of substituting him, not with another football pundit, but with his rubber puppet from the 'Spitting Image' programme.
