Look North and Tyne Tees Tonight

[Otto42]

Doug Weatherall painted every Sunderland defeat as some sort of victory.

Sportstime on a Friday night on Tyne Tees could get a bit confusing when you had Doug Weatherall fawning over Sunderland, and you had Doug Moscrop guaranteeing North East betting shops made a packet with his ludicrous racing tips.
'Moscrops Moneyspinner'...he couldn't tip coal.

Tyne Tees really had the pick of the stars then didn’t they, remember Mark Page’s pop slot, they probably don’t want to now

Does anyone know have they cancelled the open top bus parade

The didn't cancel it in 1998, much to Shearer's continued embarrassment

It was during one of those odd live late shows they seemed to do in a pub that always seemed to be some where near Washington with roger Thames in a shirt like he’s out with mates.

but this was our so called cup preview show

Doug saying we’ll win nowt

BBC Look Tyne has always catered for the Skunk population, there used to be a regular spot where Mike Neville and George House, both Skunks, would talk to each other in dialect Geordie, (Larn yersel Geordie). Oh! how we laughed ........NOT. It was so embarrassing, the North East began and finished on the Tyne, perhaps with a passng reference to The Scum on the Wear.

Maybe they thought Yorkshire TV covered the Boro?

I'll pi$$ myself laughing if they crash out in the 2nd or 3rd round next season to a league one or two side as this is 'just the start of a bright future'

So you decided to mix him up with a Welsh snooker player instead? Makes sense, I suppose
