    24 clubs x 46 matches each = 1104
    less 46 games because you cant play yourself -46
    equals 1,058 games over a season

    Sorry Nines, but you've jumped the gun there, Pink Floyd released their 'Dark Side of the Moon' in 1973', another band released an album of the same name a year earlier, who were they?...

    And the answer to your question is 552...

    Medecine Head it was, Floyd were playing chunks of 'Dark Side' at their concerts in 72 when the Medecine Head album was released and they decided to rename it 'Eclipse', but when the Medecine Head album bombed completely they changed back to their original choice and the rest, as they say, is history...

    Over to you Finglas...

    Oooops! My apologies, I thought it was somewhat easy. For what it's worth, I made my answer 552.

    I saw them in 1972 (the Rainbow I think) and, as you say, they played most of DSOTM. I eagerly awaited the next album release, which turned out to be Obscured By Clouds!
