    <applause> My next clue would have been that I remembered the manager who signed him, but the player was before my time.

    What was unique about Watford's FA Cup tie against Hull in 1988?

    Dave Bassett was manager for the first match and Steve Harrison for the third. The second was no manager.

    Did both teams start the tie with one manager and finish it with another?

    Will give you that. <ok>

    Started the tie with Bassett (spit, spit) as manager, Tom Walley managed the team for the first replay, then Steve Harrison was manager for the second replay.

    ooooh bit harsh for AK there BB - I'd have given it to him to be honest with you as he was technically correct in that we had no manager..

    Was the Northern Heights a railway line that was planned before the world war and never finished. The people planning gave up in 1954.

    Spot on - it was planned to be an extension to the north london section part of the northern line running overground instead of underground.
