Phoenix (Seven Squared) 49
OK, well this one seems to have everyone stumped. The answer is the Gattings - Steve played in the 1983 FA Cup Final for Brighton and his better-known brother Mike played for England in the 1987 cricket World Cup final. I think the Cardinal probably was closest (inasmuch as anyone was) so I'll hand the baton to him.

Right. MattV has obviously buggered off and forgotton about the Phoenix, so I'll do a quick (and hopefully easy one) to get the ball rolling again.
East Stirlingshire are widely recognised as being the worst-league team in Britain, finishing bottom of the football league for the last 4 seasons.
However, which rather famous football manager "cut his managerial teeth" with the side?

Well done. He only stayed a few months before moving onto a "big" club. (St Mirren).
Interestingly enough, although they only attract 200 fans to their matches, they have a 4,500-strong supporters club in Norway, thanks mainly to a documentary shown there about how crap they are.
They also play very close to my house, so I'll be able to go and watch East Stirling v Stranraer next season. Cannae wait!
Over to you UP.
