Sporting Moments - Favourite tunes with a sporting theme. Sport is our national pastime. We watch more sport today than we have ever done and sportsmen and women have supplanted the roles traditionally held by pop stars and entertainers. We treat them as Gods and it seems that every schoolboy aspires to be a David Beckham and, latterly, a Jonny Wilkinson. We take our sport seriously. It is a matter of national pride and with our winning the Rugby World Cup in November 2003, we are now imbued with a confidence and a patriotic fervour not seen since that other World Cup win in 1966. Our music Collection is sure to revive many memories of days of watching and, indeed, listening to our favourite sport. Before television, it was radio that supplied all the thrills and spills and we have included a number of signature tunes and themes that will transport you back to the Forties and Fifties. Happy Listening!
