Yes, when our transfer policy was if they played well against us, we'd buy them!

Edited your post Leeg as giving answers in posts kind of spoils it for others. The same for Mr RedSox.

The clue about Hannibal threw me, I kept thinking it must be the same player who starred in Basic Instinct 2.

I got them all right straight off and with one minute ten seconds to spare. But I didn't understand the Hannibal part of the clue for the last one, I just went on the Leicester part of the clue.

Yeah I realised my error too late, annoyingly they both played for Leicester!  If I'd thought about it properly I'd have remembered Gregory had given up on my guess by that stage.
