    I look forward to the thermos flask stress toys being thrown onto the pitch.

    Assuming the PAD protesters can reach that far.

    It'd getting over the barrier for the PAD pitch invasion Is going to be challenging and quite entertaining too ;o)

    Are ear trumpets considered as an offensive weapon nowadays?

    Post-noon (April Fool) answers to The Quiz

    As no-one answered all of the questions correctly the Committee of PAD has decided to return its Zimmer Frames to the cupboard and disband but for the sake of those still trying to get to the answers without Google (and yes of course we know how to use it!!).

    1) The popular Post-WWII meal item on a Monday evening would be Bread and Dripping (utilising the dripping from the Sunday roast)
    2) Rationing officially ended in the UK in I954
    3) Yes, the Victorian penny was still commonly found in change in 1954 and could be used until 1971.
    4) The Festival of Britain was in 1951
    5) An Allotment is a piece of ground usually 'allotted' by a local council to those without gardens primarily for growing fruit and vegetables - a necessity in Wartime but with the advent of Supermarkets has declined in popularity.
    6) This was a trick question: Henry Irving was a renowned Victorian stage actor who died in 1905. Although the humble Cardigan was first 'invented' by the eponymous Lord Cardigan sometime between 1854 and 1870 we have no way of knowing which was Henry Irving's best cardigan.

    It was too easy, mate.

    But I didn't want to give my real age away.

    Seem to remember having a petrol rationing book, somewhere between 1970-73.

    Apologies @harveys_gardener - should have specified food rationing which was result of WWII shortages whereas petrol rationing of the 1970s was precipitated by the Oil Crisis.

    @RedChaser you are a star - there were to be no prizes but I feel that you deserve to be sent a pot of Brylcreem in recognition of your splendid effort.

    Why 65? Before Roland rocked up you could get an OAP season ticket at 60.

    I'd like it if Roland said;

    "In the end I just had to sell the club. PAD was what pushed me over the edge and I couldn't take it anymore"

    It does look as if we're getting to him if this latest photo of him at lunch today in Sint Truiden is to be believed
