On the old official forum I started a thread for interesting facts, riddles, stats etc. about Rovers.
I have had a few in my head for a while but no where to put them, so I thought I'd make such a thread here. Hope that's ok.
by the by - Is Big Dave on here? he did some good ones on that old thread.

ok, first one.
a quiz one.
What do Steve Yates, Jamie Cureton and Rickie Lambert particularly have in common?
Not sure if this is a tiny clue or not, but two of them also have an extra thing in common, related to the main commonality.
Take your guesses now...

Big Dave was here and part of the Matchday team. He disappeared a while ago. No idea where he went. I loved the Stat thread on the OF! Thanks for bringing it back.

The child's game Subbuteo is so called because the inventor was refused permission to name it Hobby.
A small European bird of prey with the Latin name Falco Subbuteo is more commonly known as a Hobby.
Quite interesting?

They scored on the opening day before transferring well done. you've answered the extra bit of the question... Cureton and Lambo did that, whereas Steve Yates NEVER scored for Rovers despite 196 league appearances (and 1 sub appearance) and 41 cup appearances.
