The Midas touch… and a few clangers
We have a football transfers quiz today that spans 35 years of the beautiful game, and a mix of good, bad and indifferent signings.
We are giving the name of 16 managers and we want you to tell us the first signing they made after they took over. It is far from easy, so anything over 12 is a fantastic score.
