Who played in the 1974 cup final at Wembley and also the Rugby league cup final at Wembley the same year?

Was it the Band of the Coldstream Guards?

Name the player who was picked to play for the Rovers and Manchester Utd in the same fixture.( I am sure I read somewhere that the same player did represent both clubs in separate fixtures on the same day as well.)

Do we have an answer to this one? I haven't got a clue

The Band of the Grenadier Guards........................maybe it was....................... The Band of the Royal Marines

The Brass band was my "standard" answer. Good question though I would say and certainly lightens the mood.

Was this a testimonial of some sort?

I'd have a guess at Frank Stapleton in a masters match.

Anyway another one:

David Beckham was sent-off twice in his England career. What was unusual about one of those?

Was he sent off after the game or at half time? Just a wild guess.

Nope

Well that is a correct answer to my question - just not the one I was looking for.

What do we do? Perth to set another Q and I'll give my answer to the above or let this one run a bit??

Let it run,

Is it to do with that particular game though?

Beckham was the first Englishman to be sent off twice for his country (I think).

Is that the answer you wanted?

NO but again it is correct - just not what I'm after. Look back at Perth's question back to me - it gives a bit of a clue

It was a B league fixture and the player in question was allowed to be on both clubs books at the time because he was an amateur. I think it may have been resolved by playing for one of the clubs in the morning as an amateur and then signing pro forms for the other side and turning out for there reserve side in the afternoon.

Masters football looks a good call - I'll go David May

see above post
