Tinny sound (with "buzzing bees" in the background).

Ticker tape.

Footballs with strange patterns on them.

Weird goal nets.



Anything else?
 
Advertising hoardings declaring exotic products rarely seen in the UK such as :
Tylo Sauna
Rifle Jeans
Wampum Jeans
Yankee Bars
Olivetti
Metaxa
Lois Jeans
Kindy

European sides with great looking kits with sponsors

Enormous concrete bowls with athletics tracks around the pitch.

Liverpool.

Forest.

Terrifying perms.

Anfields pitch regularly looking like a ploughed field coupled with a misty haze within the ground.

Genuine interest around the country.
 
I certainly remember the awful tinny sound quality that Scrounger mentioned.
What about coppers (not stewards) around the stands that looked double hard?

Lemmy. Thats some tesponse. Youve given it great thought. Nothing to add except seeing teams emerge and disappear down steps that seemed to lead to underground tunnels.
 
Supporting the English team, no matter who, I mean Leeds, Leeds ffs.
Johnny Foreigner rolling around on the floor like a Nancy boy.
Johnny Foreigner fouling and being thoroughly ungentlemanly.

Just remembered being really impressed that a Japanese player was playing in the European Cup. Anyone else remember Okudera coming off the bench to equalise against Forest?
