Famous Players

 * Eunice Murray, who played Seeker for the Magpies, once asked for a faster Snitch because "this is just too easy."
 * Hamish MacFarlan, Captain of the Magpies from 1957 to 1968. After his captaincy, MacFarlan went on to become Head of the Department of Magical Games and Sports for the Ministry of Magic.
 * Alasdair Maddock, a Chaser for the Magpies who had a rather unsettling obsession with Muggle sports. Once, he tried to dribble the Quaffle like a basketball, and on another occasion, tried to hit the Quaffle with his head like a football (soccer) player.
