    No...

    It's hard to think of a clue without giving the answer away, but... think Peterhead.

    Something to do with the third division sides Rangers were up against?

    Yes -The answer to the question 'How many SFL clubs have body parts in their name?' was three (Heart of Midlothian, Peterhead and Brechin). With Brechin dropping out and being replaced by Kelty Hearts, the answer is still three.

    Over to you.

    A football official was censored more than a 100 times during a recent EPL game. Who was the official, and what was going on?

    Is this about the female asssistant ref who Iranian TV apparently didn't want viewers to see her bare legs so they simply cut her out of the match?

    It is indeed about Sian Massey-Ellis who will be at Wembley this afternoon. Iranian TV cut away from the game to show shots of London every time she came into view. Back to you. BB.

    Sticking with the football theme...

    Which ex-Watford player, when playing for his new club, scored the only goal of the game in the final of a four team tournament to give his club an unlikely victory against the (then) La Liga side Racing Santander?

    No.

    A striker, he never scored for Watford, and the goal he scored against Racing Santander was one of just three that he scored for his new club. Yet after being transferred again, and dropping down a division, he set a record for the most goals scored in a season (42) for his new club - a record that still stands.

    No - but it's not him anyway.

    The season this guy scored 42 goals, his team set the UK record for the most League goals scored in a season (142) - a record that still stands.

    I haven't a clue , but suspect it's Scottish, as their goalkeepers are generally awful.

    Well Peterborough nearly matched it years later - and they play against English goalkeepers...

    But you're right - both the club and the player involved are Scottish - and, interestingly, in the same season Scotland beat England at Wembley in the Home Championship.

    Of course you mean the legendary Norman Heywood (Norrie to his friends) who played an astonishing 1 game for Watford (1933 ?) in which he scored the memorable number of 0 goals.
    Raith Rovers achieved the 142 goal record. I only know all this because my close friend hockey playing partner and PNE season ticket holder hails from Kirkcaldy.

    That's him - quite possibly the only player Watford have ever signed, or are likely to sign, from Peebles Rovers. His solitary game for Watford was in a 2-1 home victory over Gillingham in 1933.

    Over to you.
