1, Birmingham City

2,?

3,Birmingham City

4,?

 

Both right Bure.

Q2.....156 games and 19 goals for us. Went to Bournemouth in exchange for Tony Powell.

Q4......2 x defenders and, giveaway, goalie.

 

Q4, I would quess as Keelan, Forbes and Stringer or Payne
Q2, Trevor Howard?

 

Right, Forbes being the wrong one of those four. And Howard. I saw him play, but have minimal recollection.

 

Tomorrow will be Canaries before and after, ie, things they did before joining or after leaving.

 

Trevor Howard was a quality player imo, but Tony Powell was one of my all time favourites

 

Same here, that hair.

Q1,Ron Davies
Q2, Martin Peters
Q3, Andrew Johnson
Q4, Chris Wood
Q5, Jim Whitley

 

Q3 wrong Bure but congratulations on the others, especially the last one.

I was lucky enough to see Ron Davis at his best for us. Have never seen a striker as good in the air. He seemed to defy gravity at times.

 

Q3, must be David Phillips(pen v Liverpool)

 

This player scored for his team after leaving us, meaning their opponents failed to get the points to overtake us.

 

Got me there, I assume he must have scored against Blackburn, who finished 1point behind us.
Still trying

Not sure of your point Chris.

 

Was it Andy Linighan???

 

I was going to say Tim Sherwood then I realised I had completely got the wrong end of the stick and was too embarrassed to let the message lay bare for everyone to laugh at! Andy Linighan was a top answer, Essex. Good bit of lateral thinking.

 

Andy is the right answer, forgot it was the cup though so slightly misled you.
