The winner of the Wor Al superfan competition was Mary Pegden from Gosport. Mary wins a Shearer testimonial goody bag containing a much sought-after official testimonial scarf, 'Alan Shearer: Legend' DVD, Unofficial Football World Championships book, Burglar's Dog book, and Burglar's Dog enamel badge. The four runners-up were David Bosher of Hebburn, Jack Walton of York, Kate Carnaby of Ashington, and Barry Hindmarch of Washington. They all receive Burglar's Dog books. Congratulations to all of the winners. The question was: Which goalkeeper conceded Alan Shearer's 206th Newcastle united goal? The answer was: Kelvin Davis. That was Shearer's last competitive goal, a penalty against Sunderland.
