    Not a footballer but actor Ralph Little played for Edgware..
    My question..haven't Edgware Town folded and fused with Kingsbury FC now.

    OK......this is where I was born (Honeypot Lane Kingsbury)...and where I went to school.
    Saw quite a few Kingsbury Town matches when younger

    There was a dim kid in the year below me at school from Oxhey so his nickname was perfect.

    I think if I’m right he’s also the answer to a common pub quiz question.

    Possibly, depends what the common pub question is.

    He started as a centre forward for Edgware.

    It’ll be one of the Wimbledon team that beat Liverpool I’m guessing. I know Vinnie Jones started at Wealdstone, not sure if he played for Edgware too.

    Correct team, not Vinnie Jones though.

    (Stuart Pearce also played for Wealdstone about the same time.)

    Congrats yes.

    Apparently part of the transfer included a new kit. Edgware were still wearing the kit the year Wimbledon won the cup.

    Can I relax now, being Quiz Master is far too stressful.
