Surely you have to pick Orson Welles, because that significantly reduces the available goalmouth for opposition players to aim for. This joke also works for Marlon Brando and Gerard Depardieu.
It seems the Metroplitan district of Wakefield counts as a City. That’s a bit weird....I doubt the residents of Pontefract and Castleford think they are in the City of Wakefield.
If you take the population of the conurbation, Wakefield has 330,000 people. York is 207,000. As with all major towns and cities now, population includes places within the jurisdiction of the local council which might have been classed separately as towns in their own right once.
