Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ
Wow! Probably should’ve known that.
Long story short from a few months ago down the pub on Easter Road, amongst the mates...... someone said “Name the famous 5. GO....”
Everyone apart from Big Nelly got stuck on a few......
Big Nelly: “f**king disgrace. Should be ashamed o yersels!”

interesting that,tangfastic wrote: ↑Fri Oct 12, 2018 1:25 pmYes...
His older brother Gerry played for Ipswich... and Hibs... and the USA. He was born in the USA and held dual nationality so could have played for Scotland or England.... but was not picked for either.
Joe was a Scot, but was ineligible to play for Scotland (at that time)as he was born in Liverpool ( to a Scottish mother and grew up in Scotland apart from the first few months of his life).
He was the first player to play for England who’d never played a league game in England before, playing in Scotland (for Hibs) and Italy( with Denis Law for Napoli) before later playing for Arsenal in England. Owen Hargreaves was the second player in 2001 who’d never played before in England.
try this one
I was born in 1972
I played for my country at U17 / U18/ U21 and full International.
I played for club sides in France / Italy / Spain,
I played 155 times for a club I later managed to some major titles.

No that’s not the record, Wolfie. You must be thinking of Zig & Zag and “Never mind the Zogabongs!”goldandblack wrote: ↑Fri Oct 12, 2018 8:41 pm

Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ
These international breaks drag. Here’s another one.
1. I was born in Manchester in 1943.
2. I had a boyhood friend who became a famous singer and TV star.
3. Most of my clubs were based in the North West, but I spent most of my career at one club in the Midlands.
4. On one afternoon in 1976, I entered into the Football League record books. I even beat George Best into second place that afternoon.
5. I share something in common with a current Derby County player.

Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ
5. I never received a full international cap. It was said that I would have done so if Sir Alf hadn’t preferred his “wingless wonders”.
6. I did, however, represent the Football League versus the Scottish League.
7. The only major trophy I won was in a Wembley Cup Final against my former club.
8. I did win a divisional trophy when I beat an Aberdeen franchise team in the final.

Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsAo6dYOAp8
about 2.37 on youtube.
RIP David

the number 8 Question was clever. I did win a divisional trophy when I beat an Aberdeen franchise team in the final. I think we played them in the USA when we were the L A Wolves, cant remember what Aberdeen were called but I think Sir Alex was there manager, might be wrong

Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ
Yes
Don’t know if SirAlex was manager, but they were called The Whips I think.
That franchise American thing was interesting. Quite a lot of clubs had a team out there... Stoke had a team out there... the Stokers. I got the impression that happened in the pre-season ... between end and start of the new season. Probably a bit of a Busmans holiday. Waggy apparently met up with his childhood friend, Davy Jones of the Monkees, when he was out there.

Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ
I remember when we were over there, it was a massive trophy they brought back as winners. I have pictures of Davy Jones with the Wolves team. I thought the answer to that question was Robert Plant,tangfastic wrote: ↑Thu Oct 18, 2018 8:12 pmYes

Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ
Lapping it up in LA in 1967 are (from left) Les Wilson, Dave Wagstaffe, Ernie Hunt, Graham Hawkins, Davy Jones (front) and Bobby Thomson.
Older and wiser.....Les Wilson (left) and Davy Jones.

Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ
you were right.tangfastic wrote: ↑Thu Oct 18, 2018 8:12 pmYes

Wolves won the championship beating the Whips 6–5 after 36 minutes of extra-time. Four goals were scored within a 4-minute period midway through the second half and each team scored during extra time. The game was decided after Whips defender Ally Shewan scored an own goal.[1]
you are right the Aberdeen manager was Eddie Turnbull not Sir Alex,

Re: WHO AM I. QUIZ
try this one
I was born in 1977 in Yorkshire.
I played for Leeds United but they was not my first club.
I also managed Leeds United at 2 different levels.
I was a striker up until I was moved to centre back by an ex Everton player.
