GRIMSBY TOWN 3, carlisle United 0.   Oh and who can forget the music that introduced the programme bang on 5 o'clock. It was always a race to listen to that tune when getting back to the car !

Change for change's sake. Obviously the wrong decision, but there you go. They will try and modernise anything if they can.
