Football Questions..

What ever happened to that one about the team with fewest points???

Try this England one (have listed those who have played -process of elimination for those who haven't) -

Group A
I think Michael Thomas has 9 England caps, and Scott Minto I think got at least one when Eriksson was messing around with his left-back slot for a while.

Group B
Would have to wildly guess at the two keepers to have played, seeing as they were around for so long. Can't remember who was understudy for Chris Woods after Shilton retired.

Group C
Steve Stone definitely has a cap - so does Stuart Ripley?

Group D
Earl Barrett has two caps. Wild guess at John Beresford for the other capped player.

Group E
Neil Ruddock has a couple of caps. Steve Froggatt picked up one cap before picking up a very bad injury which I think ended his career.

Group F
Barry Venison and Colin Cooper have played???

Group G
Collymore definitely has played. Lee Chapman must have picked one up at one stage?

Group H
John Salako 13 caps and 1 goal in a far-east tour. Paul Stewart has played as well, I think.

Group I
Gary Charles and Shaun Teale to have played?

Too lazy to check google.

How'd I do?

Good effort Stu, I'll list the answers here since there don't seem to be many takers. These are the players who DID NOT represent England at full international level.

A: Steve Chettle, Scott Minto (Michael Thomas I think has two caps, David White was capped in a friendly against Spain circa 1993.)

B: Neil Ardley, John Lukic (Beasant won two caps in 1990 and was a member of the Italia '90 squad, IIRC. Bardsley also won two caps under Taylor.)

C: Ruel Fox, Mark Draper (Steve Stone made three substitute appearances at Euro '96, but the quarter final against Spain was the last of his nine international caps. Stuart Ripley was capped twice, against San Marino in 1993 and Moldova in 1997.)

D: John Beresford, Peter Beagrie (Barrett won three caps in the early nineties. Sterland was a bit of a cheat on my part, since he won his only cap against Saudi Arabia in 1988/89.)

E: Kevin Pressman, Steve Froggatt (Ruddock won a single cap against Nigeria in 1995, Deane has three. Froggatt was persuaded to declare for England rather than Ireland around 1993. His reward came in the form of two Under-21 caps; he never played a senior international, but was called into the squad by Kevin Keegan on several occasions, which just shows how desperate they were for a left-sided player.)

F: Paul Warhurst, Graham Stuart (spot on, Stu, Venison and Cooper were give two caps apiece by Terry Venables.)

G: Darren Huckerby, Lee Chapman (Collymore has three caps, Unsworth one. Chapman's international career considered of one Under-21 appearance against Ireland in 1981.)

H: David May, Stuart Slater (Well done Stu, although Salako actually has five caps. Stewart has three.)

I: Andy Impey, Shaun Teale (I can never distinguish, in my memory, between Teale and Richardson, but it's the latter who won a full cap against Greece in 1994. Charles won two caps on the aformentioned Far Eastern tour of 1991 (?) )

Wow - 13 out of 18!!!

Have to be happy with that!

Or is that disturbed...? :cool:

Teale was the taller and thiner of the two, both had mustashes, Richardsons hair was a lighter colour and a little more curly. :o

5 british teams to start and finish with the same letter.

Liverpool
Northampton Town
East Fife
York City
Celtic FC?

well if u put FC on the rest of them it would make them wrong as well, so.................

there is another one anyway.

Just realised that the FC wasn't necessary, Celtic will do by itself! I don't think they use the Glasgow (being Irish and all ;)).

Aston Villa

northampton?

We had a table quiz in fourth class - our teacher was married to a cousin of Packie Bonner's. One of the questions was "Which club does Packie Bonner play for?". Everyone wrote down Celtic and we all got it wrong because the teacher refused to accept anything other than "Glasgow Celtic"!

Ahh, bizarre memories of school...

Yes that is 1.

Some quick Euro-teasers for the day that's in it:

1: Which LOI club conceded just two goals in four European games during the same season, and still didn't progress a phase? (That one's easy.)

2: Against teams from which country have LOI clubs scored the most victories in European competition?

3: Against teams from which country have LOI clubs scored the most GOALS in European competition? (The number of goals is 24, incidentally.)
