I had a cracking lie in this morning, weekends off for me so it's a slow start to the day.

Would have been a longer one had it not been for the wind battering the street.

I'm not sure many will get number 5 without a clue
 
Found that tricky today.

Needed the clues for 1 and 2, didn’t get 3, a little young to remember 4 but got 5.
 
I needed the initials for number 1, but got the others without too much trouble, although I spent a few minutes on number 3. I knew the player and team in number 5 straight away, honestly.
 
Hard today. Only got n number 1 and Trevor Steven but didn't know he was with Burnley. Cheers mate. Look forward to these every day
 
Didn‘t get one or three!
Couldn’t think of a Spanish player we had back then.
Checked the answer before rechecking the question!
Number three is my weakest area of the team.
Older bear easily enough and got the player but no idea who he played for before Everton.
Looking forward to tomorrow already.

Tomorrows is all ready to go
 
4/5 Never got Q1 even with initials. Needed initials for 2. Good stuff as always Mr B. Thank you.
Are some of the players used today repeat answers with different clues? I’m sure a couple of today’s have been used before. Or am I losing it ?

You may be right.

This has been running for 82 days in a row now, an average of 4 players each day, that's 328 players I have used.

Getting to a point where I cannot remember which players I have done or not.

I think I will take this to 100 days before I hang up my question boots and call it quits.

Otherwise it will just be repetitive.

Got 3
Didn't get older bear and only player for last one.

Bit of a Glen Kamara performance for me today.

:(:(:(
 
Disaster today with only the 1st question correct. Thought I knew 2 others and didn't need clues..wrong on both counts. Even older bear I was sure about ...wrong again. Really need to do better tomorrow.
Excellent Mr B.
 
Needed clues for all 3. Got the player but not the club. I love these for knowledge you’d forgotten :D
 
Needed clues for the first 2 and even then the first one took me ages before the penny dropped.
Got all the rest ok.

Definitely a tougher one today.
