Incorrect answer and into minus points for "loose". Last place in this quiz Mr Sox.

I'm guessing it wasn't under MON.

That is a correct guess, unfortunately the question wasn't who didn't manage it, minus points for you as well.

This is going to end up like an episode of QI with everyone on minus points at this rate.

No, and minus point for not giving a year.

'a minus point' or 'minus a point'...

Post by: PeterWithesShin on March 30, 2019, 08:15:37 PM: It should have been "minus points" so you lose even more points for being wrong again.

Current standings
CCR 0 points
Mr Sox -5
BV -6
Legion -elventy gazillion

Post by: PeterWithesShin on March 30, 2019, 08:31:29 PM: I'm looking for 'proper' league seasons only, no wartime years.

And Legion now has so many points deducted he's below sha in the table.
Title: Re: March Madness
Post by: PeterWithesShin on March 30, 2019, 08:33:02 PM: 1910 is the closest answer so far. And you thought Villa being crap in March was a recent thing.
