A place to ask any football or related trivia. I'll kick it off with a little tickler.

 

1) Which current or past manager was on the jury for the trial of the Yorkshire ripper?

 

2) Name as many present or former players with animals in their name. (i.e Darren Peacock)

:lol:

2) Phillipe Al Bear.

Do I win a pen?

 

 

 

Only joshing, I love this kind of stuff.

No idea about the ripper answer- total guess… Joe Harvey.

Not Joe Harvey, mate. Probably someone younger than you're thinking.

 

There's actually one player with 2 animals in his surname which is ironic given the fact he's a rat.

Is the FA trophy one because it includes teams from England and Wales?

 

Nope

I'm sure I've heard that somewhere before. Is it something to do with the captain who wins being the 3rd lion? Or is that the premiership trophy?

You are correct sir, the Winning Captain is the Third Lion.

 

Better than a friends response when that question was asked at a pub quiz. She proposed "Is it because they ran out of space on the trophy?"

I don't know how true this one is but apparantly the player to score the most opposition goals at Anfield is Jamie Carragher. He's a shit for own goals, tbf.

Clue on the juror. Irishman who had success north and south of the border.

Martin O'Neill?

Presume Fish was actually talking about the Premiership trophy seeing as there's no lions on the FA Cup. :lol:

Who is the only player to score a hat-trick in the Premiership, Championship, League 1, League 2, (or the divisions under their previous names), the League Cup, the FA Cup and for his country?

 

And he's shite.

Aye. Martin O'Neill was the juror. I think it's a canny'un that not many people know.

 

Have you's ever heard the old 'Which keeper has scored the most professional goals?'

He's supposed to be nuts about criminology according to Wikipedia. No fucking wonder he's steered well clear of our managerial job :lol:

Definitely Ugly Earnshaw for the hatricks.

 

Massive one here which is quite an unknown.

 

What's a German Hatrick?
