Wolves v Leeds played on same date in consecutive years The away side, Leeds, won both games One Wolves player on the pitch sent off in both games (Nunes was sent off as an unused sub too) Wolves scored twice in both games Leeds scored in added time at the end of the game in both matches Otto (Jonny) scored in both matches (he scored just two goals in total last season and this is his one and only this season) Harrison scored in both matches Ayling scored in both matches (he scored just two goals in total last season and this is his one and only this season) Rodrigo scored in both matches
Forest Green, rock bottom and not won a game for 17 matches, faced a Sheffield Wednesday side who would go back to the top if they had won - a mere 55 points between the two sides. Result FGR 1 SW 0. Duncan Ferguson's first win as head coach too from 10 matches in charge.
In Daniel Levy’s 20 years at Spurs he has had 10 full time head coach/mangers. Those ten have have won 61 trophies between them before and after being at Spurs, and those 10 between them have won 1 trophy whilst at THFC.

It's the one trophy at Spurs I find hard to believe.
In 2015-16 Coventry City had players of a certain calibre in their squad - they of course walked League 1 (actually they didn't even make the Play Offs in finishing 8th):
Joe Cole James Maddison Marc Antoine-Fortune Adam Armstrong Ryan Kent Jacob Murphy John Fleck Jack Stephens Sam Ricketts Ruben Lameiras Marcus Tudgay Zakara Bergdich

Paul Mullin has 39 goals in 44 appearances in the National League (31) and Cup (8) for Wrexham this season but that isn't even the best scoring record in the National League. That is held by Macaulay Langstaff who has found the net 39 times in 39 appearances in the League. To put that feat in perspective, the 3rd top scorer is Inih Effiong who is on 20 from 40 appearances - or put another way, Langstaff scores a goal every 85 minutes whereas Effiong does so every 165 minutes. What makes that even more impressive is that not one of Langstaff's goals is a penalty.
The real question that needs answering is "did we sign the wrong Macaulay by mistake?" Edit - I've just checked and Bonne's best season in the Conference was 23 in 46 so, at the rate he is scoring at, Langstaff is set to double that.

Langstaff scored once again tonight to make it 40 goals in 40 games this season. That equals Ricky Miller's record for the National League for Dover in 2016/17
By the time Man United's game at Newcastle comes around on Sunday, they will have played just one away PL match in the previous seven weeks (and that one ended up with them losing 7-0). In fact, in that previous 10 weeks they will only have had two PL matches away from home out of a total of 16 matches played. And yet they've played the same number of games, home and away, in the PL.
Always find it mad Michael Owen won the ballon d'or, he was good but he wasn't the best player in the world, surely?
Although this might be my memory failing, but wasn't the FIFA World POTY the more prestigious award in the 90s/early 2000s?
it's for the best player in (playing in) Europe
Yeah, fair enough, but when was the best player in the world last not playing in Europe? So near enough the same thing now really.
Figo won world player of the year when Owen won the B D'O so I think your earlier comment about World POTY being the more prestigious is spot on with the B D'O being a best of the rest
Someone told me today that Miles Leaburn is the youngest player from 92 league clubs to have scored 10 or more goals this season. Second youngest is Jes Rak Sakyi.

A lot of records are going to be broken in the National league this season. Top goalscorer, most goals by a team, most points.
Michael Owen for all his talents... Never scored more than 19-League goals in a Premier League season

Motherwell have won the Copa Del Ray.
Cristiano Ronaldo was Juventus' top scorer between 2011-20 even though he only joined in 2018.
The last team to beat Real Madrid in a European Cup Final was Aberdeen.
