    70s: Defo Nigel Rees. I had to look up who his first goal was against and I came up with Bangor City in Welsh cup.

    Mendonca is right, but this guy only made one appearance for us and it was when he came on in an FA Cup tie in the 90s - he was here on loan.

    00s Scott McCulloch scored against Plymouth. James Harper sent off?

    80s is it Lee Smelt? No idea why but I have a feeling he was on trial, not signed, then we signed him years later.

    10s Nat Jarvis. Dunno who he plays for now. The team in black and white was Bath City.

    60's looks like Trevor Edwards who i think played in Australia after leaving us - Sidney ?

    90's - Eddie Youds possibly although he actually made 3 appearances for us.

    Exactly right, he joined the squad in 1979 for pre season training in Denmark, was not offered a contract and then signed for us in 1984.

    Right about Jarvis and Bath, sadly whenever someone mentions the name of the place where the team Jarvis is playing for come from, I think of a shooting.

    It is Eddie Youds, the Cup tie he played in was in January 1990 - I did miss that he came on in a couple of league games for us though.

    You got both parts of the 60s question right - well done.

    Hungerford Town. Me too, Michael Ryan comes straight to mind as well, even 30 years on. I'm not sure why but the Dunblane massacre doesn't bring the name to mind in the same way (I had to look it up, it's Thomas Hamilton).

    I know Andy Murray doesn't talk about it much but I wonder how the incident affected him in the long run (his class was the next one due in the gym at Dunblane that day). Jamie and Judy too. For all the pride they feel in their successes, there must be a certain degree of guilt too in that they were lucky enough to be able to move on when so many lives were lost or shattered.

    Anyway, good quiz, thanks.

    I'm exactly the same, I recognise the name when it's pointed out that Thomas Hamilton was responsible for the Dunblane massacre, but, whenever I hear or see the name "Michael Ryan", I think Hungerford straight away - sometimes, things stick in your head when you hear about them as a kid, but I was thirty one when Ryan killed all of those people so that hardly applies here.

    As for Andy Murray, I think all truly successful sportsmen and women are "driven" to some degree, but he seems particularly so - could the Dunblane shooting have anything to do with that?
