Wasn't it even quicker than that? I remember buying it from in front of the 
Post Office on City Square on my way home after we'd been chased/done some 
chasing all the way back in to town after the match.  Can't have been much past 
half five by then.

PS, I think Young Narmit wins the Youngster on the List award.

Oystein can have Best Scandie on the List, as well as 
OnlyPersonI'veEverSeenAtAMatchWearingFullKitIncludingSocks Award

Not sure whether Maggie merits Oldest Lister on the List though

Where's Jon Blythe these days?  He'd make Rich W's comments on Becchio seem 
like glowing praise, and he'd definitely win the Grumpiest Lister award
