    Just looked up the results from 78-79 and there was a run of score draws around Dec/Jan time but after that there were a couple of 1-0 defeats to Southend and Exter, so I'm guessing that it's one of their keepers, especially if they saved an IB pen.

    No, what he said was about one of our own players.

    No - it wasn't about a keeper.

    His comment was aimed at a particular player, but was more a comment about the team as a whole.

    Looks like I'll have to give up on this one...

    The words were spoken by Ian Bolton about Ross Jenkins whilst he (Bolton) was injured and having to watch from the stands. The team were going through a 'sticky patch' and Bolton was less than impressed with the way they were playing.

    Try another one - what connects (admittedly somewhat tenuously :)) Watford FC and Rolf Harris?

    Very true - and it is a very tenuous but nevertheless recognisable connection....

    No - they come from opposite sides of the country. But it is certainly something to do with his hometown..

    His home town is Perth, I thought, though his parents come from Wales.
