Just watched this week's University Challenge on iplayer.

Leeds United were mentioned in one of the questions!

Gotta be a good sign..............I have a sneaking suspicion that The Fat
Controller is going to lead us to a glorious victory down at the Cottage.
Didn't hear any mention of Fulham!

Speaking of TV quiz programmes, I was catching up on Pointless a few weeks
ago, and one of the optional topics in the final round was "Sport in
Leeds". Infuriatingly (but not at all surprisingly) the twats who were on
did not choose that.............and I have been in a state of agonised
speculation ever since over what the actual questions would have been. My
guess is : Name any foreign batsman who has scored a Test century at
Headingley............Name any foreign player who has scored a Premier
League goal at Elland Road........and some boring crap about those
egg-chasers at the other Headingley. My answers would be The Nawab of
Pataudi (I watched him score 100 on my very first time at a Test, back in
about 1964), Steve Waugh, and Phil Masinga.
