Oh, and there's no prize, except the quiet satisfaction of a job well done.
So, without any further delay…
It's squad number announcement week so can you name the last five players wearing No 9 to score 20+ goals in a Premier League season? (we're looking for five different players, so multiple seasons for the same player just count once)
Stuck? The answer will be revealed here later today.

When Elton John came to Broadlands for a truly unforgettable concert
The year 2000 dawned with the promise of a new millennium, and for the sleepy estate of Broadlands, it also brought the electrifying presence of a true music icon - Sir Elton John. On a mild summer's evening, the historic grounds, more accustomed to stately gatherings, were transformed into an arena as thousands flocked to witness the Rocket Man himself deliver a performance that remains in the memories of many Elton John, a seasoned veteran of countless stadium tours and intimate piano shows, brought his distinctive blend of showmanship, flamboyant costumes, and an unparalleled back catalogue to the idyllic setting. The anticipation in the air was palpable as families, couples, and friends sprawled across the lawns, picnic blankets unfurled, eagerly awaiting the show. And a show it was. From the moment Elton strode onto the stage, resplendent in one of his signature, glittering, outfits, the crowd was captivated. The setlist was, as expected, a masterclass in greatest hits. From the soaring anthems like "Your Song," "Tiny Dancer," and "Candle in the Wind" to the more upbeat, foot-tapping numbers such as "Crocodile Rock," "I'm Still Standing," and "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting," Elton effortlessly navigated his extensive repertoire. Each song was delivered with the passion and precision that have become his hallmarks, his powerful vocals resonating across the estate, carried on the gentle evening breeze. But beyond the hit parade, what truly made the Broadlands concert special was the atmosphere.

The sun dipped below the horizon as the evening progressed, casting a warm glow over the joyous crowd. Lighters swayed during the ballads, and impromptu dance parties erupted during the rockers. Elton, ever the showman, engaged with the audience, sharing anecdotes and connecting with them on a personal level, making the vast open-air venue feel surprisingly intimate. As the final notes of the encore faded into the night and a dazzling display of fireworks lit up the Hampshire sky, there was a collective sense of satisfaction and elation. Elton John at Broadlands in 2000 wasn't just another concert date - it was a truly unforgettable summer's evening that brought a touch of global superstardom to the New Forest.
