This day 10 years ago Neil Mellor scored that winning goal against Arsenal. I was listening at home on 5live with a poor reception and did not know instantly whether it was Liverpool or Arsenal who got the late winner.

Remember working till 4 that day and getting delayed on the way home for some reason and parking the car in a spot for the last ten minutes where I had a decent reception!!
On 22 August 1964, the newly-formed BBC2 broadcast the first showing of Match of the Day. The first show featured highlights of only one match--Liverpool's 3-2 defeat of Arsenal at Anfield. It was presented by Kenneth Wolstenholme and Walley Barnes. Because BBC2's broadcasting area was restricted to London at the time, the audience for that show was approximately only 20,000.
