The WAB Friday Quiz #92

What with next Friday being Christmas Day and everything, there will be no WAB Friday Quiz for you to tuck into alongside David Stockdale-sized helpings of turkey and stuffing.

Which means that we are using this week’s quiz as our Christmas special. Or to be more precise, our Boxing Day special which celebrates one of the best days in the footballing year.

We have one question per Boxing Day going back over the past 20 years. If you can recall your festive football since the Albion won the Division Three title in 2000, then you are laughing. And even if you cannot, you might as well have a go to see how much you can remember anyway.

You will also receive a welcome reminder of THAT Adam Hinshelwood own goal which, lets be honest, makes everyone a winner regardless of how many you get right.
