I was tempted to call this the Cowton-Boycott contest, on account of an unnamed theatre director's obsessive "interest" in all things Boycott - but settled on this title so as not to embarrass anyone in particular.
The contest is very simple: you have to identify the 22 notable Boycott records, awards, statistics and dates listed on the right. An indeterminate prize (which may well remain indeterminate) will go to the winner; or at least you'll get bragging rights until we run next year's contest.
Entries, of course, are strictly limited to 151. Our statistically-minded moderator and Boycott-ophile, is ineligible to enter, as is Mr. Boycott himself, since he has undoubtedly committed all of these numbers to memory anyway. And while I haven't asked him yet, I'm sure Sir Geoffrey will act as our spiritual quiz-master.
