Biggest win, Barnsley? Only going off them getting rid of their gaffer this week.
Correct, Barnsley are a double answer. Biggest win, 4-1 in 1931/32, also most visits, they are the last of the Yorkshire sides on the most played list.
DC thanks for all these brain teasers, gets the mind going and remembering all the good/bad days at football.
Bring on the next one.
I second this, thank you, DC. It has highlighted to me that my knowledge of the period when I first started going (1990 onwards) is still exemplary but events of recent seasons (or even recent weeks) is non existent.
Been saving myself for the highest scoring 17th game of the season quiz
I think highest scoring 17th league game of the season quiz might be a bit too easy though. Surely everyone knows that was the 11-1 defeat at Aston Villa in 1959?
Quiz of the week time, and I think the biggest quiz so far.
This week the playoff semi finals start, and although Charlton are not involved we have had 1 or 2 memorable playoff games over the years. But, how many of our playoff semi-final players can you remember?
83 players have played in a playoff semi for us. How many can you name?
