      Then there are 5 Racing Santander.

      The T should be The New Saints

        B is for Bethesda. I think I have the programme in my attic.
        T is probably for Tiverton: I came up for the game in one of their two coaches (and after putting a bluebird toffee on each seat before eveyone boarded). It was a genteel bunch rather than raucous. More like flasks and tartan blankets than the Soul Crew.

          Don't know the answer[s] but in the early years of the football league Burton had 2 teams. Burton Swifts and Burton Wanderers both played for several years in Division 2

                I know what you mean about the New Saints, but I had in mind games against City and I reckon TBG’s right.

                      Knew about the Swifts, didn’t realise the other team were Wanderers.

                          Lyle Taylor scored the winning goal for Forest against us in a 2021 FA Cup tie and it’s a good few years before that when we last lost a league game there. Not sure where the ‘N’ fits in.
