Sorry not to wait Macc but Christmas is nearly over so I’ll play my next question now!
Three teams have sat at the top of the Premier League only to be relegated in the same season; can you name them?

Belated congrats on getting Raith, Dudders. Down your way it was - near Vilagarcía - too!

Still 3 days of Christmas left so we can run the thread until Monday ! Everyone ok with that.
Next question:-
Can you name the only footballer born before 1960 to score a Premier League hat-trick (Hint: The Premier League was founded in 1992)?

He of the dubious honour of opposition fans singing 'Does your wife know you are here? ' when he was playing on a match. This was after his indiscretions with another woman widely reported in the tabloid press.
Despite this he was still my boyhood hero and I had a Shilts annual. Just don't know what happened to it.
