David O’Leary @daveoleary.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Loved this, very good quiz - Brooking was on the 1990 WC semi rather than Charlton, who I think was in the stadium for pre- and post-game reaction. Jimmy Hill was indeed "summariser" in 1986, I think in the days when they would share a microphone(?) and you'd hear fairly little from the co-comm. 010
