Is there a league table of the winners Jim. I think that Huyton will have won as I reckon he was using books to look up the answers but I did all mine from memory so I think I deserve a special prize, don't you.

Will let you know Billy - special prize for you will probably have to be a book on SAFC because your attempts were shite.

Seem to have no time at all lately and that Hesty as kept me busy sorting his son's misdemeanours out. Computers don't half take some fixing.

I'd have got 90% of those without a book Billy,.

I tell you what Billy, stick to your graphs.

Well Huyton, as it happens, I've already set up my graph for next season! If I can work out how to convert an excel graph into a jpeg I'll post it on the website. What I've done is show our points in 2000/1 when we were 7th, in 2001/2 when were were 17th and just avoided relegation, and in 2002/3, the 19 point relegation season. I'll track our progress through this coming season and see how we compare with those previous seasons.

Aye so do I. but knowing Gilling as I do I'd lay odds that the special prize is the snotty hankie that Foxy used to wipe his sneck on promotion party day.

Could be worse Jack. He could have collected some of that foul polluting atmosphere he stunk the whole club out with and award you that!!

Eau-de-skunk I think it's called.
