Otto42 has stepped forward to provide input for the next Boro quiz we are running in lock down. Thanks to him for doing that. Also, thanks to Erimus74 for his input into the last 2 quizzes.
The subject for the quiz will be trying to guess Otto42's favourite "home ish" matches.
There will be 9 rounds of the quiz. With each round covering a period of approximately 5 years from the mid 70s onwards.
We want to limit the range of matches to keep it around the 100-120 matches to choose from per round of the quiz. If we were to include away matches it would be well over 200 each round. Also, if we fancy, we can always run an away match version of the quiz later.
As mentioned above we will be splitting the period from the mid-70s through to 2020 into roughly 5 year chunks.
"Here goes for some intro. I'm 50 and my first game was in October 76 against West Brom, won one nil and went top of the league...all downhill since. Went to most home games 83 to 87, then went to university. Had a season ticket during the 90s, before moving south and family started to take some of my attention away from the Boro. Loved the Rioch years and lived the Robbo rollercoaster. Think Steve McLaren (and Karanka to a lesser extent) get an unfair bad press from some Boro fans! "
So I suggest that you start having a think about matches between 1976 and around 1980 for the first round of the quiz.
