Got thrown by Wilbrahamovic, thought he'd been here a lot longer!

That's the one I got wrong, but I was absolutely certain he was at Norwich for two seasons and Wikipedia proved me right.

Stupid question.

17/17 - was certain that Wilbraham had been here for more than one season (and looking above he obviously was), but was the only answer that made sense for that question.

I ruled out Wilbraham because I knew he spent more than a season with us! It obviously wasn't Barnett because it said striker, I knew it wasn't Morison because he had two memorable seasons with us, one when he looked decent and scored plenty and then another when he looked absolutely woeful.

I couldn't remember how long Vaughan had been with us and had no idea whether he was an assistant manager at League One level currently, but having employed the Sherlock Holmes maxim of eliminating the impossible then whatever remains however improbable, is the truth.

So I was punished for knowing Wilbraham was here more than one season! Although you could say I deserved it for not knowing that Vaughan wasn't a coach. You could also argue that he was at Norwich more than one season, as he was contracted to us for two but the second one of those was spent entirely at Huddersfield, so he was only really at Norwich for one season.

16. Wasn't paying attention to the 'On ,Loan from Tottenham" question and just picked Skipp.

As we were told at school time and time again: "Read the question thoroughly".

Someone clicked on Reveal Player Photos mode... 😉

Still pretty good performance for a binner all the same!

17/17 🤓

Would've been more fun were it not multiple choice.

fun = virtually impossible

(at least for me! And maybe 💯 club member @dylanisabaddog!)

15/17 and that was one I got wrong because like you I thought he was with us for more than one season........

I googled and he was with us for 18 months so I guess you can claim only one full season but still...

My accountancy lecturer used to write RTFQ at the bottom of some of my hangover induced efforts. After all these years I've finally worked out what he meant😂

I'm forever haunted by my French teacher writing at the bottom of my work...

"Why do you want to end the sentence with a preposition for?"

He was such a wag....

The best one I ever had was from my A Level Geography at King's Lynn Tech who wrote-

"What do you mean by this? THINK. Do you ever think? Answers on a postcard, please..."

Exactly the same AJ. Was sure he was here two or three years.

 

Feel a bit better now I've read the rest of the thread. I'm going to claim the point! 🙂
