Question 5 was Roger Federer has the longest men's winning streak on a Grass court - how many matches was he undefeated for ?
Pretty sure that this record will never be beaten, Fed may be the GOAT but our competitors may have forgotten that other Grass court tournaments exist so while Super Rog was winning Wimbledon from 2003-2008 he was winning other Grass court matches - incredibly, the undefeated run was 65 matches. Pokerpops slurs the great man and we've found a sport Rubbish isn't so good on, but overall some pretty good guesses here
Karabiner… 49 Arbboy……… 39 Juperjiper….. 39 Rubbish2407 18 Pokerpops… 12 KarmaDope 61 TightEnd…… 40 Dacorb…….. 42 celtic………….. 45 bergeroo……. 47 scotty2hatty 48 bunnydas8888 47 Ironside……. 40 robbiebox……. 31 4KSuited…….. 111
Much worse at Cricket. That's an hell of a record. Never thought it would be any more than three tournaments.

So, Round 1 and Rubbish and Super Scot Ironside must have buried away the memory that he didn't win as many caps as most of us would think
Rubbish2407 1 blatch……… 1 Ironside……. 3 Arbboy……… 6 KarmaDope 7 Karabiner… 26 TightEnd…… 32 celtic………….. 34 Dacorb…….. 45 bunnydas8888 45 4KSuited…….. 45 Juperjiper….. 46 Pokerpops… 49 scotty2hatty 55 bergeroo……. 57 robbiebox……. 66
it was between 20 and 30 he was always pulled out injured Yep, it wasn't just about selection

Question 7. Middleweight Boxer Sugar Ray Robinson had a winning streak that lasted from 1943-1951 - how many bouts did he go undefeated ?
They fought a lot back then, 200 or so pro fights, 100 or so amateur fights. Got out of the gate in his pro career going 40 undefeated before losing to Jake La Raging Bull and followed his first defeat with an even longer winning run - an amazing 91 wins

Going back to question 1 and I can still remember Fergie dropping him for Mexico 86. I remember thinking that there had been a massive mistake as Liverpool had just won the double? Looking back, I guess that's the day Man Utd decided they must have Fergie as manager. Makes sense now.

You must be a similar age to me +/- 10 years because I can remember that clearly now you mention it

I was 22 and into Football a lot more than I am now. I honestly thought the Scottish FA were going to make an announcement that they had made a huge mistake and Hansen was in the squad and they would drop someone.

My favourite question as I've always been huge fan boy. In June 2010 Super James Dempsey won the Bracelet for the $1500 entry Pot Limit Holdem at the WSOP - how much did he win (answer in $000's please).
Was in Vegas this year but not at the time James won. What a thrill to live life vicariously. 9 days after this momentous win, the former member of mmm Mob and sharky 5/10 limit player on Tribeca in the day, came 2nd in the $10k Hi/Lo for a little over $300k. Bigger wins followed in other tournaments before he became bald and a commentator. For the bracelet though, a mere $197k, around 3 % of his staking bill for the series
