    oldfrenchhorn,

    Are you by any chance being sneaky here?
    Who actually voted it Goal of the season?

    I think that this question has brought the thread to a halt, so I will give you the answer and a new question.

    1st March 1993 Watford reserves beat Ipswich 4-0. A 25 yd pile driver was scored by the reserve team captain who did not feature in the first team and it was his last season on the playing staff. The goal was awarded goal of the season.

    The player was Luther Blissett.

    An easier one: What date did Graham Taylor become manager of Watford for the first time?

    Wasn't it at the beginning of the '76 - '77 season?

    Memory can play tricks, I know, but I reckon it was July 1977

    O.K. My question is; at the Accession of William of Orange to the English throne Dutch botanists cultured a new plant to commemorate the event - what was it ?
