    He won each of them on a different day of the week.
    Lytham 1979 on Saturday when that was the normal last day.
    St Andrews 1984 on Sunday on what has now become the usual last day.
    Lytham 1988 on Monday after the previous day has been washed out by torrential rain.

    Yeah it was Cambridge that season, twice in the League, once in the Fa cup, and twice in the two legged League cup.
    But the first home leg was abandoned because of torrential rain. ;)

    Are you googling these lol.
    Yeah amazingly it was us/England back in '70. When I first heard this I thought it was Allan Clarke's goal that beat Czekoslovakia, but Wikipedia says it was a win against Romania actually.

    Bournemouth away on Bank Holiday Monday. Remember it like it was yesterday as I went with my Dad. It took us ages to get back home on the Monday night. This turned out to be the last away game with my Dad, which is why I remember it so vividly. Can't remember the home game though...

    BTW - I didn't think we were top on BH Monday. I thought we went top when we won the following Saturday. I'll have to check that one.
