Here we go again - this time we're going back a while...

Back to a time when we had almost beaten Man Utd to the title the season before - but didn't. Eventually, Keegan left the manager's seat and - having just scrolled through all the results - we had a tough ol' season ahead of us. I'm talking about the season of the rat, 1997/1998. We finished 13th this season and Arsene Wenger snatched his first PL title as manager of Arsenal.

On Matchday 11 - Saturday, 18th of October 1997 - we went to Elland Road to face a Leeds side that carried a more international squad of players than the squad we brought which consisted mainly of Englishmen. However, a few foreigners did appear in our team;
An Irishman - who?
A Northern Irishman - who?
A Welshman - who?
A Georgian - who?
...and a fellow Dane - who was he?

Elland Road was packed for this game between rivals, the numbers even exceeding its official capacity. But how many were in attendance that day? Was the number...
1) 37.834
2) 38.834
3) 39.834
4) 40.834

Leeds' side featured a player that would go on to play for us. Who?
Our side featured two former Leeds players. Who?

Leeds beat us 4-1 on this sad occasion. By the beginning of the second half, they were leading by 4-0.
Who came off the bench to score our consolation goal?

Shearer was not a part of this side, presumably due to injury. Who wore the captains armband for NUFC on this occasion?
