The first ever league game played on a Sunday was Millwall v Fulham on the 2oth of January 1974 they kicked off early to be the first as there were other games on that day.

PillyB Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Around 1966 I reckon. I was 16 then and remember being asked to play for Brightside Heating in the Sunday Sports League. I remember thinking , “ Football on a Sunday ?!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
