Corrected entry: In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Marcus Flint is described as a "troll-like 6th year". Yet in the Prisoner of Azkaban, Flint is still captain of the Slytherin Quidditch team. There are only 7 years in Hogwarts and there is no mention of Flint being held back a year or anything else which would explain why he is present in what would be his 8th year at Hogwarts.
