The WAB Friday Quiz #158

With the last weekend of another season upon us, it is time for the traditional WAB Friday Quiz on what has happened to Brighton on final days of the campaign in campaigns gone by.

We run this particular round of 20 questions once a year, so regular participants can expect to do well. For example, everyone now knows all about the time Adrian Thorne went mad against Watford to fire the Albion to promotion on the final day of the 1957-58 season, right?

A couple of new events have been thrown into the mix, just to try and make things a little different. Final games of the campaign always tend to be memorable though – even when there is no promotion or relegation riding on them – and so we are expecting some high scores from what is always one of the more popular WAB Quizzes of the year.

No pressure then…
