Sunderland went on to win the Cup beating Preston 3-1. The BBC television cameras first appeared at Arsenal playing against their Reserves on September 16th 1937 at 3.40pm, listed in The Times. The 1938 FA Cup final, between Preston and Huddersfield, on April 30th, was the first to be televised.

On the same day in 1999, an article printed in The Times involved England manager Glenn Hoddle gave his views on reincarnation and his belief that people born disabled were paying for sins committed in a previous life. Condemned by every right-minded person three days later he became the ex-England manager! I hope they had a good relationship with their physios.
