Christmas quiz

[Rob Leeds]

I do now have the answer…

BUT, frustratingly, it turns out that rather than just being a football question, it was a work/football question. I work in real estate…

xxnick1975 was getting as close as any of us were likely to get by spotting that all of the teams had won the top division.

The numbers actually represented the % return on the UK real estate market in the years that each team won the top division.

I spent ages looking at squad sizes, year each club was formed and even asked google Bard for an answer (it seems were a long way off AI solving anything like this!).

Sorry!!

I wish I could thank you for that answer but I can't.

UK property did well in the late seventies/early eighties by the look of it

I was going to ask for details of the setter as a next step, but I still wouldn’t have got anywhere near that. Thanks anyway, I learnt a few things along the way.

1987/88 Division One teams, numbers represent each teams drawn league matches that season.

Good spot.

More importantly, who won the FA Cup that season?

[Montello]

Correct. Now that would have been a decent question.
