Thanks. The FA trophy win was before I was born so I'm giving myself a pass on this one.

Give you a clue, goalkeeper.

Give you a clue, goalkeeper.

I worked out who it was before my last post, but that was through Wikipedia research. I'd never have got it on my own.

Anyone want to take a guess?

Who was our top scorer in all competitions in the 77 - 78 season?

Who was our top scorer in all competitions in the 77 - 78 season?

Was it John Duncan?

There was one season where he was ace and, looking back, it can only have been that relegation season (by which I mean season we were relegated, not season we got relegated).

Could be wrong though.

That was quick mate. Nice one.

You know when you're a kid and you're arguing in the playground about who's got the best players?

And they're all like 'We've got Kenny Dalglish' or 'We've got Malcolm MacDonald' or 'We've got Bob Latchford' and you're like 'Yeah, well we've got John Duncan'.

Well, you don't forget that in a hurry, I can tell you...


Anyway. On to slightly more illustrious legends with my question...


Apart from their dedication to, and all-round legend status with, Tottenham Hotspur, what else do Arthur Rowe, Bill Nicholson and Steve Perryman have in common?

All three scored on their England debut?

As far as I can ascertain, Arthur Rowe never even scored for Tottenham in nigh on 200 appearances.

But you're thinking along the right lines...

All three had an assist?

Ah, all right. All three won just one single cap for England.

One current Premier League player has one cap for England, but 0 minutes official playing time. Who?
