We’ve been given a clue regarding the coaches, they have nothing to do with the professional game, but are ‘guest coaches’ for this quiz. These must be either 1, 13 or 22.

I think he means people who we know, but have nothing to do with football.

Anyway, I’ve given up now (unless someone can provide the last three answers), 19 out of 22 isn’t that bad if what we’ve got is correct.

Thanks to everyone for their help :thumbup:

Just had a phone call from no.1 son. Told me that granddaughter, who qualified as a dentist earlier this year, has just started her first 'shift' in her new job at the hospital. Apparently she is in sole charge of 'emergencies' with access by phone to a senior dental surgeon for advice. Her first 'customer' was a prisoner from the local nick who needed 6 teeth extracting. :lol: Always said it's best to get thrown in the deep end!
