Sorry BB. Field Mill has been used for football since about 1860 but not always by the same club - Mansfield Town FC were founded only in 1897. The stadium I am looking for has been only connected with one club since it was built..

 

A club which competed in the inaugural FA Cup (only 15 clubs did so)

 

And coincidentally the only ground used in every single FA Cup competition. It will be used tonight as well.

 

Maidenhead's York Road stadium?

 

That's it BB. Maidenhead United have played at the same ground since 1871, the longest unbroken run known in football. In the early days they actually reached the quarter finals stage in the FA Cup on four occasions. The first cup tie there was in 1871 against Marlow Town and the latest will be the fourth round replay against Taunton Town tonight 153 years later. Over to you.

 

Cheers - every day is a school day...

A quickie - we all know that goalkeepers scoring goals isn't a rare occurrence, but how many Watford goalkeepers have managed it? Who were they, and what could be called unusual about their feats?

 

Steve Sherwood drop kick ..I think swirled in the wind..vs Coventry

 

Billy Biggar

 

That's the two scorers - what could be said to be unusual about their goals?

 

Did they both save a pen in the game they scored in?

 

I've no idea - but that doesn't really have anything to do with the goals that they scored.

 

From their own penalty area?

 

No. Sherwood 's was but Biggar's wasn't.

It wasn't so much how they scored them...

 

Both scored at Coventry?

 

That'll do - both goals were scored against Coventry.

Over to you

 

Explain:

 

It's a long way..

 

Just wasted a few................

 

Clue in this

 

Even more confused now!
