Retro TV Saint & Greavsie T-Shirt

Retro TV Saint & Greavsie T-Shirt

In 1969, as his football career with Liverpool was coming to an end, Ian St John began working with Radio Merseyside and, to further his blossoming media career, he entered a competition run by the Sportsnight with Coleman programme to find a new football commentator whose prize was to be part of the BBC team for the following year's World Cup.

The 10,000 entrants were narrowed down to six finalists and St John tied for first place but missed out as the chairman of the panel judging the event, England manager Sir Alf Ramsey, gave his casting vote to Idwal Robling, who went on to enjoy a long career with BBC Wales. Gerry Harrison finished third and became the voice of Anglia Television's coverage of football, while radio DJ Ed 'Stewpot' Stewart, came fifth.

Originally hosted by Brian Moore as part of World of Sport, St John took over the Saturday afternoon football preview show in 1983, later joined by former England international and prolific goalscorer, Jimmy Greaves. When World of Sport was axed in 1985, the duo presented their own hugely popular programme, Saint and Greavsie.
