owl sees all Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 A nice candle-lit supper with Nok could be possible for any member getting all the footy questions correct; any week. And an exciting, but relaxing, game of chess after the grub. I'll have a word with her. See if she is game for a game. From now, to the start of the EPL, I'll put up some weekly footy questions. And anyone getting them right; any week,, well,, brush up on yer chess gambits. But no Googling now. Only if yer give up. So let's kick off with three easy-peasee, lemon-squeezee ones. 1 - These two teams met each other, home and away, in the top flight. 19 goals in the two games. A 8-4 and a 3-4. Clue;;; both teams playing in the EPL this year. What clubs? 2 - What did Cameron Brannagan (ex-Liverpool) do in the game Gillingham v Oxford United on 20th January 2022. Result 2-7. a/ Scored 2 own goals for Oxford, and two for Gills b/ Scored 4 goals from 4 penalties c/ Hat-trick in first 7 minutes d/ Scored 6 goals; all in second half. 3- Alex Ferguson went to Man Utd in 1986, and suffered a loss in his first game as boss. What club beat his lads? a/ Swindon Town b/ Northampton Town c/ Carlisle United d/ Oxford United. That's it for the opener. Answers, and three more riveting questions next week. Thanks for playing. Nok!! Stop stroking that bishop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite good enough to push your pawn Champs. Pompey 7 - Reading 4. A record score for the EPL. 10 goals has been hit 5 times. No! Not a quiz question. Could have been though. Gunners, United and Spurs each involved in two matches. And Reading too if the 11 score is counted. Baggies 5 - United 5 Spurs 6 - Reading 4 Gunners 7 - Toon 3 United 8 - Gunners 2 Spurs 9 - Wigan 1 Edited June 6 by owl sees all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him play in London 30+ years ago. The match progamme, highlighted his career. I kept the programme for many years. And what a career. Played lots of times for England. A gifted player for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, I can't recall him playing for United. Maybe I don't know the answer after all. Edited June 7 by owl sees all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
