If Gary James hasn't written it. it never happened


It happened, despite Gary's prodigious record keeping. I did say it was exceedingly difficult - give up??


Oh for God's sake, make the pain end!!

Oooh, you old trickster, you.

The real City would have lost 19-18.

New one: I don't have the answer for this, but here goes.

Should Kasper win the CL with Leicester (stop sniggering at the back), not only would we have father and son winners of the CL/European Cup, but in the same position. Apart from the Maldinis (we got that one in the pub), what other father son winners have there been and have played in the same position?

Cruyff?

Johan must have won it with Ajax. Did Jordi win it with either the rags or Barca?

Dudeck was keeper for the dippers when they won the CL. Mind you, father and son losers in the same position is worth a good answer - to a different question ;)

Had to look it up but a couple of chaps who played for Madrid.

Manuel Sanchez Martinez won the European cup in 1966 and his lad, Manuel Sanchis Hontiyuelo won it with Madrid in 2000
