A quick morning quiz.

For any of you awake yet.

Don't cheat.

Today in 2007 was the start of a new season, home against Spurs.

What was the score?

That was the easy part, now try this...In that team that played there were 5 debutants,, can you guess them?

 

Was it 1-0 to us, with Chopra getting the winner? Debutants: Chopra, Gordon, that little midfielder dude from Man U (let me think some more on that!), Richardson and Etuhu?

 

You are doing well.

If there is no cheating going on, you have a mighty fine memory.

 

I was thinking of Liam Miller, but it can't have been him as we already had him in the Championship.

 

Nah he wasn't one.

 

I was being totally honest and can remember our first game back in the premier league like it was yesterday for some reason. I also remember Keane having us play a very compact formation and the commentator acknowledging it.

I just checked on the last one I missed!!!!!!!! Hmmmmmmmm. I won't spoil it for everyone else

 

For extra points - how many ex-Sunderland players were on the pitch that day? (!)

 

Was it Bardsley?

 

Must admit, you did very well like. Chopra, hero to villian these days.

 

Nope.

 

I'm looking at their team now, got me stumped.

 

Thanks Comm

Amazing how far Chopra fell.

 

That prick -Stokes??

 

Bent, Steeeeeeeed, Cimbonda

 

Nope, although he was playing, he joined in the jan.

 

Think there is one more.

 

I rated the guy too, but he wasn't the sturdiest.

 

Only played 21 times in 2 years, is he still the only finnish player ever to have been at the club? mind blank.

 

The closest I could think of was Mart Poom (Estonian). Internets says no to any other Finns.

Cameroon/Benin are about the next most exotic after that.
