Yes, I do know dolphins are mammals and not fish, but this team representing the Dolphin are very "big fish" indeed in Macclesfield Quiz League folklore. Besides, if you call people "Big Mammals", I find they get very upset and might even hit you...
The Dolphin have won the lot and more besides over the last few years and in Alan Hodgson they have the premier player in this forum bar none. He has been the A League Individual Champion for 10 out of the last 13 years and has been seen on many TV programmes as well during that time. He is also the one and only person anyone can ever remember getting the magic "full house" score of 60 out of 60 in the the League Match format. We have had lots of scores in the 50s, but only one bit of perfection.
The team are (from left to right) : Derek Owen, Peter McBride, Alan Hodgson and Stuart Rowbotham. The other regular member - Alan Rudden - was elsewhere on the night the photo was taken. I will get him next time.
As time wears on, I will try and feature as many teams as possible with a picture so we can be preserved for posterity (some of us are closer than others to preservation as it is). If you have a picture of your or any other team, do let me have it...
