Damn! You're right!
Points whipped away from The Bluenose and awarded to juanillo!
(And definitely no negative inference on me for setting up a false pretense in the first place).
It was clearly stated in the rules that naming the 'Other Three' would result in the winning of Doc's special prize. I have never managed to win Poll's non existent prize and I assume your yours will be of a similar value. Tight Northerners.

The season we played Lowestoft, I remember a Tamworth fan visiting the Grove with her dog as she would only go to away games with her pet.
Anyway she was telling me how she was disappointed not to be able to go to Lowestoft as they had been forced to ban dogs after a dog fight broke out on the pitch.

God bless non-league.
Similarly East-Angular and idiosyncratic, when we went to the nearby Felixstowe, our veggie fans won the meat raffle after the match and gave the ham hock to Chemo.
I''m fairly sure Premier League fans have a number of similar stories...

And for the non veggies Felixstowe and Port served up from their Jez’s Shed for £2.50 all that could be piled into a burger. A magnificent gastronomical feast
That match I seem to remember is also notable for Stewart Hall keeping the team on the pitch and half time after a poor first half performance

Thought she would only take the dog away. At the Lamb it would be looked upon as the half time food.

Surely it would be running the club?

Good call, and it could lord it over the mythical half neanderthal half slug creatures on the terraces.
