Episode 18: 7th December 2003: FA Cup Second Round
Burton Albion v Hartlepool. Coverage of this FA Cup second-round tie at Eton Park. Nigel Clough's Conference side face a tricky test against their second-division visitors, Hartlepool, the first team ever managed by Clough's famous father Brian. Three non-league clubs progressed from this stage last year and today's winners could potentially draw a lucrative tie with Premiership opposition.
Episode 22: 3rd January 2004: FA Cup Third Round
Southampton v Newcastle United. Coverage of this all-Premiership FA Cup third-round clash from St Mary's. The home side blitzed Tottenham 4-0 at the same stage last season but Gordon Strachan's men will face a tough test this evening, with one-time Southampton player Alan Shearer desperate to lead the Magpies to their first major silverware since 1969.
Episode 17: 6th December 2003: FA Cup Second Round
FA Cup second-round highlights, including Telford United v Brentford.
Episode 23: 4th January 2004: FA Cup Third Round
Yeovil Town v Liverpool. Is a giant-killing on the cards in this eagerly awaited FA Cup third-round tie from Huish Park in Somerset? Before winning promotion last season, the Third Division side had claimed a record 20 league scalps in their non-league days. Adding to that total would kill off Liverpool's sole realistic hope of domestic silverware this season. The winners in 2001 will be looking to the likes of Michael Owen , Steven Gerrard and Harry Kewell to guard against a massive shock exit. There will also be highlights of Aston Villa v Manchester United.
Episode 16: 30th November 2003: Euro 2004 Finals Draw
Barry Davies and Garth Crooks are in Lisbon for the draw for next summer's Euro 2004 finals, with Alan Hansen , Peter Schmeichel and John Motson joining Gary Lineker in the studio.
Episode 24: 14th January 2004: FA Cup Third Round Replays
FA Cup third-round replay highlights as clubs chase a place in the last 32 to keep alive their dreams of playing in the final.
Episode 15: 27th November 2003: Uefa Cup
Newcastle United v FC Basel. The Toon Army go into this Uefa Cup second-round, second-leg tie with both home advantage and a 3-2 lead after they came twice from behind to win in Switzerland three weeks ago. Goals from Laurent Robert, Titus Bramble and Shola Ameobi were sufficient to see off the threat from the outfit who eliminated Liverpool from the Champions League last season, and Bobby Robson's team will be anxious to make progress in this competition, especially in the light of an indifferent start to their Premiership campaign.
Episode 25: 24th January 2004: FA Cup Fourth Round: Liverpool v Newcastle United
Coverage from Anfield of an FA Cup fourth-round clash between two top teams who usually produce a goal glut. Newcastle last won the competition in 1955, while Liverpool lifted the trophy just three years ago. Neither team has done themselves justice in the Premiership this season, so progress here to the last 16 is vital for respective managers Gerard Houllier and Bobby Robson.
