In the 1950's, Edgware Town had a black winger. I think he was Nigerian, not certain, who was nicknamed Omo. He was really well liked by the supporters. Nowadays, that would get you arrested.
BTW, the other winger was called McGillicuddy, no nickname was ever found for him.

Thanks, BB.

In August 2000, Watford played Walsall in a friendly at Tamworth's ground. Micah Hyde and another player were asked by Kenny Jackett to leave the bus at the rear. As they did, GT got on at the front and the bus drove back to Hertfordshire. The two stranded players' wallets and phones were still on the bus. The bus did not return to pick them up. They had to get a taxi back to Hertfordshire. Their crime? GT was furious that they had messed around on the official club photo, putting their hands on each other's knees so it looked like Micah had a white hand and the other player had a black hand. GT was furious as all printing had gone ahead before their misdemeanour was noticed. Who was the other player?

No taker for this one ? To describe it as a vehicle may be a bit misleading - it moved, and it was driven. It was made for a purpose but if it had been successfull it would have been very uncomfortable for the driver.

Is this the attempt to lure the Loch Ness monster by building a 'mate' for her?

<applause> All yours Andy. 4 firemen from Hemel Hempstead built a female Nessie from papier mache - together with eye shadow and make up. Unfortunately they used the mating call of a male walrus, so Nessie wasn't interested. It had to be driven by 2 people who would have been in a very hairy situation if it had actually worked ! Fortunately (or unfortunately) it crashed into a jetty and the attempt was abandoned - this was all in 1975. Over to you.

I'd say that Nessie's indifference was caused by something else actually - Nessie being the Scottish diminutive form of Agnes... <whistle>
