And of course there was pace bowler Richard Johnson who played one or two tests...though I'm not sure how good his midfield play and long range shooting were...
Thanks Barry. The question is: At which historical battle was there the single biggest loss of British soldiers in one day ?
This is one of those occasions when you wish you had listened more carefully at school.... If I'm right, it was the final battle of the Wars of the Roses - the one after which Henry VI conceded the crown to Edward IV & fled up here. There were around 30,000 killed - many of whom drowned/froze to death in a river as they were fleeing (the battle took place during a snowstorm). But that is about all I can remember - a sign of aging Am I on the right track?
Just as you find the latest question, think, then get ready to put in an answer you find that someone has got there first.
Sticking to the war theme - particularly relating to battles lost by the English - what was the name given to the formation used by the Scots to successfully counter the superior cavalry force of the English during the Wars of Independence?
As it is my bedtime a really easy one. When did Harry the Hornet first appear pitch side, and how did he lose his head?
