It was a joke, Ellis - although, actually, yes I did. I was with BT at the time and was part of the alpha and beta trials for the early models (which didn't have cameras btw!). I developed strong biceps carrying it around! (That was a joke too.)
Happy days clearing straw from the pitch before the Baa-Baas games! KBO

Some people must have had pictures of the try though and maybe BBC East Midlands (or was it just BBC Midlands back then?) did a highlight reel as part of a news broadcast? They must have done, these were the days before Sky and the Baa-Baa games were of significant local interest.

I have video tapes of all tigers games shown on television here in the South from 1978 - 2005, including the first live televised league club game, which was at Welford Road.

I think @JiffyRugby would love to hear from you if you have a tape of the match!

According to the Baabaas website (http://www.barbarianfc.co.uk/results-fi ... 1987-1988/), here are the the players who took the field that day on December 28th 1987. The score was 48-30 to the Tigers. I'm sure I was there, but as with most of the Barbarians' matches my memory is misted by an excessive intake of something or other!!
