Very close! 4/5

Sheffield Utd?

Instead of....whichever one I got wrong. Do I have to work out which one that was?

Edit: Instead of WBA, I know the first 3 are right, fairly sure Burnley's right too.

Wolves
Preston
Portsmouth
Burnley
Sheffield Utd

I'm going to be away from SC until tomorrow evening, and I don't want to leave people waiting on me again, so here's a tiny clue.

His first name was Frank.
His surname was Brettell.

If you're able to work it out from those very minor hints, consider yourself a winner and ask the next question.

My apologies to any one who actually knew the answer. Which is of course, all of you, even @nailsy , who was just giving the rest of you a chance, obviously.

Is that Mathieu Flamini's big project? I know he's involved in something sciency.

That's the one. The US Department of Energy has labelled it as "one of the 12 molecules that can help unlock a greener world."

Leicester's 9-0 win last week was only the second time two team-mates have scored hattricks in the same Premier League match. Who were the other two players

Oh I heard this on a podcast yesterday! I think they were Chelsea players, but the names completely escape me.
