Guessing a keeper? David Forde?

Something tells me I haven't been paying enough attention.

In what could potentially spell bad news for Rory Gaffney, Barry Corr has signed for Cambridge.

Both good guesses, but no
Forde started 50 out of 50 games for Millwall, O'Shea started 43 of Sunderland's 44 games this season, but the most starts goes to Richard Keogh of Derby, who started a frankly ridiculous 53 out of Derby's 54 games this season
The only game he missed was a 3-0 home win over Brighton in December!

Incidentally, Forde is the answer to question two - he played every minute of every game of Millwall's season.

Revealing this one later, any guesses?

Good guess, but no. This player had three goals from the bench in 2014/15. Cox had one - against Brentford in October

Clue: he's a full international, but hasn't played under O'Neill

Had a "where are they now" moment earlier and wondered where former U21 full back Marcos Painter is now, according to this he retired sometime before last December: http://www.northstandchat.com/showth...ainter-retires
