thanks grasscarp, came across tilde earlier it would put my 20 down and 11 down answers out big time unfortunately!

31 across TREMA also known as an umlaut.

Perhaps you can assist me with 6 down the only thing that fits is SHORT MAN but I don't know where that fielding position is.

Also 27 down should it be AGOUTY or AGOUTI what do you think

[foxwall]

6d third man
