Times yesterday:

22A Go first in division after gaining three points (4)

Surely "Wind" is a better answer than the published "Wend"?

Grunger, I think 'wind' would work for all the sports-liking people who know that a win usually gets three points. For others (me), the three points were W, E and N.

I don't think so, grunger - there isn't a definition for wind.

wend is "go" (as in "wend ones way home"). First in Division after the compass points W, E, and N.

...one's...

Thanks

I was thinking "wind" in the sense

The river winds (goes) through the valley.

and "gaining" tends to indicate Win

gringer

yes I put in Wind too.

I didnt think of wend but to have a second collection of random letters (R-ebecca) being the other cant be right.

REBECCA I think the clue was: Girl runs with bunch of keys (8)

I think it's fair enough if after R for runs we have musical notes. I spent a long time wondering if there was a weird word for islands.

Jigjag, Grunger, Paul...

I liked the Rebecca clue...but it took me a few minutes to solve!

Reminds me of
G-GAG (5,8)
I think by Myops in the Wee Stinker

yes I thought Rebecca was fair and I liked it too. My complaint is that a second collection of un-ordered letters is used in the WENd answer. This cant be right so I think the answer should be WINd.
