Oh..! What a twat..! OK, I'll do a complete re-adjust. From my original list, only Matty played well over 200 games for Saints in the PL, even though his career started before it. Hey, this is a good question..! OK, I'm going to say [this is a proper leap, here...] Benali Le Tiss Dodd Beattie Lundekvam Oakley
I should ask the question... name all the post-war players who made over 200 league appearances for Saints, prior to the Premier League's formation. But I won't because I haven't the faintest idea and it's too much of a faff to work through. Easy one, but not as easy as you may think. Which Saint has had the shortest career since the PL era started, up until now..? That is who, of those who have taken part in a 1st team competitive match in all competitions, has had the shortest amount of time on the pitch [this does not include unused subs].
I said easy, but not that easy..! Clue: It was in September 2012. [Whooo, that surprised you didn't it..? ]
Whooo..! Actually hadn't thought of him. Thankfully, he played long enough against Stevenage in the League Cup not to be the man. Phew..!
Well if it's less than the 19 minutes of Ali Dia's career it must be either Richard Chaplow or Steeeeeeeeeeeve De Ridder?
Nah, I'm going to give it to you because I have to get a bit of supper together and I can't be here all the time. I thought it was easy because it was so recent. It was Andy Robinson, who subbed Jack Cork in a LC game in September last season, and played for 11 minutes. Incidentally, he's just coming back/come back from another long injury layoff. Another very good player in the Academy, who was promoted to the first team squad last season. Now back in the U21s. OK, it was a hard one and obscure as well. EDIT: Brilliant by saintlyhero. Thank goodness that question's over.
Here's one for you, 13 different foreigners have played over 100 times for Saints. Can you name them?
How specific are using making the term foreigner..? Anyone outside England..? Anyone outside the mainland, or GB & NI, or the British Isles [includes Ireland]..? Name all the countries which don't come under that designation first. I'm not racking my brains for hours on end only for you to suggest that MLT was a foreigner because he was a Channel Islander..! Or there is anyone born in anyone of those places above but played for a foreign country..!?!
Claus Lundekvam Ken Monkou Anders Svensson Marian Pahars Fabrice Fernandes Jose Fonte Morgan Schneiderlin Guly Do Prado Anti Niemi Struggling and some of them are touch and go
I'm pretty sure of Ivan Golac Ken Monkou Claus Lundekvam Marian Pahars Morgan Schneiderlin Jose Fonte Then maybe these guys: Anders Svensson Jo Tessem Antti Niemi Hassan Kachloul Egil Ostenstad Beyond that I'm struggling. Maybe Delap and Kenna if Irishmen count?
Are we counting players who cabn play for their native countries. Rueben Agboola, Geprge Lawrence etc?
