Morning everyone
Back to something we’re all a bit more familiar/comfortable with for this quiz. No gimmicks, no team work, just pure, unadulterated, rampant quizzery. We’re going old school. It’s simple really. Each week you will receive 5 clues to a former County player. The clues will be in the form of other teams they have played for (other than County, of course) throughout their careers. Get the player right on Monday and you receive 5 points, Tuesday 4... and so on.
I’m not revealing how many weeks the quiz will run for, but the initials of all the players can be re-arranged to spell the surname of another former County player. The first person to guess the link player will receive 10 bonus points, then 9, and so on.
Since I’m feeling generous, I’ll give you another clue: all the players in this quiz have played for County in the last 20 years, including the link player.
Straight forward enough? Then let’s get going...

NB: To clarify, it is the initials (both first and last) of the players throughout the quiz, which can be re-arranged to spell the surname only of the bonus player.

It's been a while since we've had a Friday lunchtime results announcement, hasn't it?!
Ok, our first player is Andy Mutch. Just the one top scorer this week, and it's one of the usual suspects.... Maccy. Astonishing guess from everyone's favourite pundit, which put him in an early driving seat:
1. Hatter in Macc 5 2= Archie 4 County Benno 4 4= Down Under 3 Gazza 3 6= Big Fudge 2 BBLW 2 Epworth 2 Jamesgill 2 Market Harborough 2
Still all to play for. See you Monday for the start of Week 2!

Nice one Sandy.
We really don't stand a chance with Macca in the game do we. It's like watching a big 16 year old join in with a primary school football match.
Well done, Macca, by the way.

Well done Macc and cheers Sandy, glad I'm not propping the table up for a change, I'm sure that will all change next week.
