    The first name I looked for wasn't listed as he never made it onto the field despite being named as a sub on several occasions. Bloody typical!

    Great initiative, obviously inspired by the England cricket team, which gives everyone their unique place in the club's history.

    Well done to Dave Wood, who did the bulk of the legwork on this.

    Yes but chronologically in the order that they represented us. Not just arbitrary numbers.

    It ticks my geek box and I like it.

    Yeah... i'm not really bothered about that aspect. Appearances, goals, I'm all for that. And I'm moderately curious what the most common first name is out of those nearly 1,400!

    I haven't thoroughly checked it, but I'd say George and Jack were most common.

    It's great to have it set up, a good base or foundation to build upon.

    As someone has recently posted further up, the biggest credit goes to Dave Wood, who is not only a decent fella, he's very good at this stuff. Without his input, both the Alumni and HOF would never have got off the ground. He's one of our guests of honour next weekend too, as is Shaun Dooley, who narrated on the videos we released.

    There seem a fair few Jacobs of late. Could be an outsider.

    Been working on another quiz, Barnsley players to have played for us in the last 30 years... this will certainly help!

    Great job everyone involved.

    I've also seen something similar pop-up on my LinkedIn feed for the British & Irish Lions.

    Can we number people on the BBS in chronological order of joining and start the ILLITERATI?

    I look at 911-917 and wonder what the bbs would’ve been like had it been around in that summer

    1330-1337 four of them called Jordan. Can't say I remember much about Helliwell or Smith if I'm honest.
