No.1 correct Brad Friedel


Are you sure Cesar Azpilicutea isn't correct. A friend of mine is a big Chelsea fan and was banging on about it the season that he did it!

Edit - Just checked his wiki page...

Quoted Text
Azpilicueta played every minute of the season as his team won the domestic league, and scored in a 4–3 home win against Watford after the title was already won


Further edit. Just seen it say FIRST person. Someone must have done it before him then.!

Are you thinking about the game against Leeds Utd, Newcastle won 5-2 it was Micky Quinns debut for Newcastle scoring 4 goals, but 1 in the first half and the other 3 in the second, also this match was in the old second division, not the premiership.

Superb quiz (though too tough for me/my memory).

Have you considered posting it on other clubs' websites? Would be well appreciated, I think.

Curiosity got the better of me and I had to Google a few, although I won't spoil it for others aside from saying...

Are you sure my earlier guess of Blackpool for 13 was wrong?

Wiki says that:

Quoted Text
In their first-ever Premier League match on 14 August 2010, Blackpool defeated Wigan Athletic 4–0 at the DW Stadium. The result saw the Seasiders at the top of the entire English football pyramid[34] until Chelsea's 6–0 victory over West Bromwich Albion later in the day.

Technically your right

But Wikipedia has Blackpool in 2nd position, I have provided the page link, if you scroll down to results per matchday, which I have used for the question

I have written a number on a piece of paper and if anybody can guess what it is I will pay them £1K out of my own pocket - it is £1 a go . Naturally I could lose money but I am prepared to stand this to enable Fishy members to have a bit of fun. Members of The Trust and those in self isolation will only have to pay 50p. The winner will be announced as soon as possible

2 new questions:

Anyone who watched the excellent 2 hour documentary on Jimmy Greaves is barred from answering.

Which Lincolnshire club did Jimmy Greaves say he scored his greatest ever goal against? (Some accolade).

(Besides good football knowledge from years ago, lateral thinking is also needed).

Well thats over with now, apart from missing a couple of answers by  a few people (I could be a ref), I have used VAR and corrected my mistakes and credited the right people with getting the answer correct.

Question 13 went to VAR as someone said Blackpool, it was ruled wrong as I was using Wiki which had Blackpool 2nd
Question 16 answer of Sylvester Sallone is still up in the air, when I have received video evidence of the match to review, as I think Bobby Moore scores during the training sessions.

Is it worth me creating another quiz? if so, what do my fishy friends want, GTFC, Football, Sport, General knowledge etc.

1. Which player holds the record for most consecutive Premier League appearances (310)? Brad Friedel
2. Ron Atkinson last managed which club in the Premier League? Nottingham Forest
3. Which player scored a goal for Italy in the World Cup finals and also played in the Premier League? Marco Materazzi
4. Who was the first outfield player to play every minute of the season for a Premier League title-winning side? Gary Pallister
5. What was introduced for the first time by trainer Donald Colman in the 1920s at Pittodrie Stadium, Aberdeen? Dugouts
6. Which England international scored the only goal of his whole club career against Southampton at The Dell in October 1967? Peter Shilton
7. Which player has won the FA Cup the most times? Ashley Cole
8. Which club has had the most losses in the top flight 'Premier League' ? West Ham 379
9. Who was in goal when Bobby Moore scored his last goal? Sylvester Stallone
10 Which player has scored the most goals scored in one half in the Premiership? Jermaine Defoe (5)
11. Which is the largest city in the UK not to have a football team? Wakefield
12.Why have some British clubs got square flags on their corner posts and some have triangular flags on them? They have won the FA cup
13. Three teams have sat at the top of the Premier League only to be relegated in the same season; can you name them? partly answered
Hull City 2016/7, Bolton (2011/12)
14. What was significant about Man Utd 3-0 victory over Fulham on March 22, 2003?  the last time there was a Premier League game with no subs
15. They are only 2 players to reach the 100-goal mark in the Premier League without scoring from the penalty spot? Les Ferdinand and Emile Heskey
16. Name the player thats holds the league record for most games (511) by an outfield player without scoring a goal? Frank Womack
17. How many goals did Peter Schmeichel score in his professional career? 10

Quoted from golfer
I have written a number on a piece of paper and if anybody can guess what it is I will pay them £1K out of my own pocket - it is £1 a go . Naturally I could lose money but I am prepared to stand this to enable Fishy members to have a bit of fun. Members of The Trust and those in self isolation will only have to pay 50p. The winner will be announced as soon as possible



The winning number was  41.5      There were no winning numbers so the nearest number wins ie. 41.1  by Fishyclapper who has kindly donated his winnings of £1K to the ex.professional Golfers fund of which I happen to be the treasurer,

For anyone interested there's a sports quiz on "talkSport radio" at the moment.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”
