I thought I had him on my list.
Nope. It was Pele. I should have known better.

I had assumed he would be on the list, and was very surprised when I checked before posting.

** 2021 CONTEST **
I’ll be e-mailing all the current players shortly for their 2021 picks, so please get compiling. If you can’t think of anyone to pick, then why not dip into the archives. Many of the people picked in the early games are still with us.
If anyone would like to join the game, you’ll be very welcome. Just drop me a message at icy (underscore) North (at) Hotmail (dot) com. Rules are on the homepage.

He slipped past all lists - never picked, suprisingly.
But - quiz time - which anagram of Peter Alliss was picked 12 times?

Ploughing through the archive to find this anagram, while tedious, is really quite a journey. So many of those listed in previous years have since died - even some of the younger ones.
Icy has always told us how many times they were predicted each time a name has been struck off of course, but seeing it all together is a sobering experience.

Don’t spend too long on the anagram - you just have to move one letter 🙂
