As no one has answered I'll drop in the answer. It was Everton away. We drew 2-2 - September 3rd 1892.
Can you name the only the club in the English Football League....

They had just moved to Goodison at that point I think. (From Anfield wasn't it?)

Yes, it was their 2nd league game at Goodison Park having been turfed out of Anfield by their own president who wanted a larger rent!

Well done QH!
Today's question is in 2 parts:
a) In 1988 which team surprised everyone by winning the 107th FA Cup Final?
b) What was the link between the winning team and Nottingham Forest?

It was the second game but the first league game. They played an exhibition game against Bolton first up. The first league goal scored at Goodison was by Forest's Horace Pike who also played for Keyworth United.

Final one from me today: and I think this is a toughie!
What is the link between Arsenal, Sheffield Utd, and the phrase "Back to Square One"?
Eddie Yates
Steve Chettle
Didn't they replay a cup game because of a poor refereeing decision

I imagine that it has something to do with Dial Square which was Arsenal's original name wasn't it? No idea of the Sheffield United link though

Wasn't that the first game broadcast live on the radio?
I think the pitch was divided into boxes to describe where the ball was so could go back to square one.

The first game commentated by BBC when the marked the pitch out in squares and printed the result in the Radio Times. So the ball goes back to square one.
Edit: Damn, too late.

Mate of mine posed me this teaser earlier - which footballer has signed / resigned for the same club the most times?
Off the top of my head I can only think Nicky Southall had four separate stints at Gillingham
Anyone know any players that have reached five (or more)?

When you say "resigned" I assume you mean "re-signed"?
