If anyone’s interested I did a quiz on Zoom tonight with some mates. Worked really well using the share screen function with a PowerPoint for questions and song intros. Got them to text their answers in to a WhatsApp group.

Worth a go if you’re interested.

In the 83-84 season they were competing against...…

A Villa

Only Derby of the more significant Midlands clubs were not involved.

Thanks for having a try, will do another soon if anyone is interested.

Didn't [English] score an hat-trick against us before we signed him.

He did. And curiously in that game, the Leicester consolation goal was scored by Alan Young who had scored a hat-trick against us when he played for Oldham. Milne was obviously hoping that lightning would strike twice in the same place. Milne was wrong. Don't be like Milne.
