    Was it Kaiser Wilhelm the second of Germany, who had been made an honorary Admiral of the Royal navy by Victoria ?

    Didn't know that. <ok>

    OK, sorry about the false start. I think bsad got its facts wrong. Hopefully nobody's working on that one I just set - Steve Perryman was the answer, but it doesn't check out from my quick research. :emoticon-0111-blush

    New question:
    Who provided the assists for Luther against manure in 1978? First and last names, please.

    In 1965/66 season, Blackpool 'did the double' over Blackburn. What was significant about the first of those two games?

    The BBC once broadcast a match that only featured one club. Which club, why and when?

    I'll take a shot in the dark and say it was a 'club' vs country match. Aylesbury vs. England was the last warm up game before Euro 1988 so I'll take a guess at that.
