We do not have midweek listings for the first half of this
year. The Saturday listings for the first half of the year are
for the full live shows: it is probable that not all matches were
broadcast. The schedule during this year appears to have
been a live broadcast on Saturday, with other matches taped at
the same event for broadcast the following Wednesday.
Saturday shows during the year were broadcast as part of the
SummerSport magazine show, and later World of Sport.
