Give this a lash if you have 17 minutes to spare, it's very frustrating though!
I scored 215/220 (97%)

That's a great little quiz.

207/220 - gets very frustrating trying to fill in the last few gaps.

Four blanks in 2015 and four blanks combined across 1995-2008!

A couple that I'm very annoyed with, but always going to be the way

Disgusted with 173. Drew a complete blank and missed some that are making me almost headbutt the wall in disbelief here. Great quiz though!

220.

I don't know whether to be proud of my knowledge or deeply ashamed.

Great quiz. Those Sporcle quizzes tend to zap work productivity when they get sent around the office too.

Managed 184 which would have been very well supplemented if I could recall the fact that Aiden McGeady has been on either wing for us as an ever-present (when fit) for over 10 years.

Got 183, quite disappointed with that thought I would have got near the total, how did I forget about Kevin Doyle!

I got 210, and if I'd got the two that I really, really should have got in defence, then I'd have been very happy.

Here's an interesting one to follow up on:

Can you name every country that's played at a World Cup Finals? It's surprisingly difficult. Got 67/82 here, but missed a couple of glaringly obvious ones.

Got the last African one with 6 seconds left.

You weren't alone!

185. My worst year was 2014! Though I'm very dubious about what they say our lineup was then!

To be fair, I think they wanted to get in as many players as possible who played a reasonable amount of games. It made the game better I think.

I think it's based on who started the most times in each year.

Haven't bothered checking - and one or two players seem particularly suspect in that regard - but seeing as I struggled most in the recent years anyway, I could easily be wrong.

Paul Green listed as a starting central midfielder in 2010 instead of Keith Andrews?

I scored 185 - didn't get anyone for the last seven minutes or so

It's done on caps in the year (I think). Paul Green got 7 caps, Andrews only got 4 in 2010.
