I think I also did but how do you know. Started very easily with the great Ormond champ, Jobbers. Still cant believe people thought Paul Temay was someone else.

Re: Obscure players of the 80s - QUIZ
Yes I think it is. I only got it wrong for demonstration purposes.
There was one that I couldn't even claim as an educated guess. But I knew it wasn't Farren Ray so that narrowed it down.

Re: Obscure players of the 80s - QUIZ
Mmmmm
Bit confusing.
So the highest percentage is the right answer in each case?
I got 8 but not sure which ones were wrong.

8/10.
I wish Plugger66 was still around ... The old know-it-all would have got a perfect 10 for sure.

10/10 which isn't that surprising given my age (47)!
I remember Andrew Jobling and Phil Narkle clearly, but Colin Hammond and Russell Merriman were both 50/50 guesses.
