Yes, number 5. I swear if the whole of our first team squad walked past me on the pavement outside my house, I wouldn't recognise half of them.

Is it an age thing? Someone gave me a couple of ‘Goal’ magazines from the late 60s/early 70s recently and I could name the players in team photos without checking quite easily, nowadays, I wouldn’t have a prayer.

Think it must be, I’d be exactly the same as you if I’d seen those Goal magazines.

Back in about 1979, I might well have answered those first three questions in the same way - there's no way I would have done that with the last two though!
