Tynieness has pulled away now, but to keep myself in contention at the top my total score should be 16.

I count 7 correct answers by yourself this week, having got the Eubank, Klos and Le Tissier questions incorrect.

Yes, but you haven't adjusted my score from week 2. I've scored 5, 4 and 7 in respective rounds.

Good Round 4.

Indeed, I'll correct that now before it slips for another week.
