    14/17. One I'm kicking myself for not getting, two I'm ok with missing out on.

      15/17, one obvious one and one I'd completely forgotten had even played for us!
      Mon the Town!

        Fourteen here, but only one of the missing three might have come to me with more time.

          15/17. The two I missed both have the same initials.

            15/17 - one of which was our most recent goalscorer (for shame) and the other being one of the ones that Stutts missed - and I got the more difficult one!
            I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

              15/17 here. One that I'd just never have gotten and one that I had to kick myself for not getting.

                Forgot one played under Martin. Forgot one existed. And didn't dare guess the other despite my gut.

                    quiz has a slight bug in it. for one player you have to misspell his surname but the results show it spelt correctly.

                      "They walk out, and they’re a little bit taller."

                      No harm in our case.

                        Let's not talk about "walk outs" in this thread
                        Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

                          Dan McDonnell reports that Limerick were willing to make Keane the best paid manager in the League of Ireland by offering him €250,000 per year: http://www.independent.ie/sport/socc...-35732042.html

                          Keane did attend Limerick's Premier Division match with Drogheda United on April 15 but the approach ultimately came to nothing. The 45-year-old has made it clear that he wants to return to management at some stage, but he is happy in his current post and combining the two roles would have been difficult if he had decided to accept Limerick's lucrative offer.

                          He is paid in the region of €500,000 per annum by the FAI and is viewed as a possible successor to Martin O'Neill.

                            Denied in the Limerick Leader: http://www.limerickleader.ie/news/ho...medium=twitter
                            "There have been absolutely no discussions with Roy Keane. The story is absolute, total rubbish. He just happened to be at a match and people speculated. We have appointed our manager."

                              Would be more inclined to believe the report in the Leader. POS is a wealthy enough man, but don't really believe he would be in a position to drop a quarter of a million a year on a manager.

                                Great interview with Martin O'Neill on Off The Ball last week: https://cdn.radiocms.net/media/001/a...audio_file.mp3
                                It's about an hour long, and the volume jumps in a few places, but was a great way to pass the time driving back to Dublin yesterday
