I have done a bit of research on No9 as the quiz I used gives Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink
as the answer. However, other sources claim Mark Robins was the first, for Norwich, in 1992 with
Hasselbaink way down in 12th in 2002.

My sincere apologies, but I can't be ar$ed delving any further.
Call that one a draw !!!
