This question was asked in the first round of the Cup this season – on 24 October 2017 (Question 114). I know, cos I set it myself!
Had the team that set these questions not been playing in that round, there might have been some excuse. But they were.
Even so, one reason why we publish questions on the Internet is so that question setters can check the weeks when they didn't play, to make sure they don't replicate any questions.
