Here’s Sky Sports giving us some half time entertainment on the first ever Monday Night Football, with Undercover performing ‘Baker Street’ - accompanied by the Sky Strikers cheerleaders.
The days of a whole new ball game.
13/09/93, 2-1 down and with 14 minutes to go, Newcastle United produce a remarkable turnaround at St. James’ Park to win 4-2. Late goals from Andrew Cole, Alex Mathie & Malcolm Allen earn the Magpies their second victory of the season #NUFC#SWFC

12/09/93, Mike Newell’s second half strike gives @Rovers a valuable 3 points on the road, as Blackburn win 1-0 at Anfield and moves them onto 14 points, only 2 points off the leaders #BRFC#Rovers#LFC

11/09/93, Man Utd lose their unbeaten record, going down 1-0 at Chelsea, their first defeat in 17 league games. Arsenal join them on 16pts thanks to a Kevin Campbell hat-trick against Ipswich. Leeds end their run of 24 away league matches without a win, beating Southampton 2-0
#OTD in 1993, Paul Warhurst moved to Blackburn for £2.7m, 3 weeks after signing a 4-year deal with Sheffield Wednesday. Warhurst moved into more of a midfielder role in his 4 years at Ewood Park, the pinnacle being a Premier League winners medal in 94/95 #BRFC#Rovers#OnThisDay
@sstars9192 50p! Those were the days. This was the second sticker album I remember collecting after Panini’s Euro 92 before going down the Merlin route for the next few seasons😃
#OTD in 1993, Manchester Utd beat West Ham 3-0 to take a 3 point lead at the top. Sheffield Wednesday, who score 3 goals in 11 second half minutes, are denied their first victory of the season when Norwich score 3 themselves in the following 13 mins #MUFC#SWFC#NCFC#OnThisDay
#OTD in 1993, Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan is struck on the head in an incident with a fan during their 1-1 draw at Ipswich, Chris Kiwomya cancelling out Andrew Cole’s earlier well-worked goal. Only 6,036 witness Wimbledon’s 1-0 win over Southampton.

#OTD in 1993, a brilliant 12th minute strike from 36-year old Gordon Strachan is enough to separate the sides, as Leeds beat Oldham on Monday Night Football #LUFC#OAFC#OnThisDay
