nostalgia

This was the first football game I ever played - Match Day on the Amstrad CPC. Marvel at the way the players trot out to the Match of the Day theme tune, and then stand their respectfully as if it is the national anthem.

Just like the real football season, Match Day turns out to be a disappointment. Despite being "ground-breaking" in 1985 when it was released, by the time I came to play it in around 1991 it was already obsolete.
