I missed the results published for the 27 December sport's crossword....can anyone help with the following?
4d..."Goatman, England cricketer in the 1970's" (5) Think it's S---n (but could be wrong!)
83d..."Slim Jim" who passed with honours (6) -a-t-r
15a...."Teams that may be split?" (5) n-d--
79a..."Spread bet finish?" (7) -l--k-t (I think!)
The cricket one is driving me especially mad....

Must be "sides". I think your "n" may be wrong0 -

Low Ears..reckon you must be right. In which case I need 2d..."Boxing's Old Stoneface" (6) L---o- (if you reckon "London" as in Brian) then my 'n' for 15a is right which rules out "sides"(eeek!) My second 'o' in 2d comes from "Shinto"...which I hope is the right answer to "Sumo is a rite of this ancient religion"0
