Default Pub Quiz thread Have to admit nicking this from various sites - see if it works here. The rules are simple - any trivia questions, general knowledge, sport etc. If you answer a question correctly then you set the next one. (1) Who was manager of Leeds Utd for a traumatic 44 days. Easy one to start
Did Coppell ever manage Leeds Utd? He was our manager for 93 days, because he didn't take up his contract for several weeks after he was announced as manager, and also manager at Man City for a short time just over a month 32/33 days from memory.
While waiting for supcon72 just a quick question which 3 England captains played for Scunthorpe United.
Here it is Hawk Which player who made his International debut whilst at City will (barring Injury) play a key part in his countries back four at the 2014 World Cup Finals? Shouldn't take you long.. NO GOOGLE etc
Me neither I couldn't find him in a list of their managers but he did do a quick flit from several clubs I was worried I might have missed him at one.
Here's one Hawk. I was in the Book Barn @ Farrington Gurney and was browsing an old copy of Football Champions. In it there was a photo of four players, two sets of two brothers, who all played for their home country at the same time! Who were they?
Not Caulker as he was only a U21 when with us and of the countries who are through to the finals for certain I can't think of a defender who has ever made his international debut for us who is one of those teams. So you have me stumped there.
Only Spain, Japan and Brazil as far as I know are certs for the 2014 world cup and I don't remember any of our players who made an International debut for any one of those.
I can remember when the O'Leary brothers were playing for Ireland there were another couple of Brothers who played cricket for Ireland but couldn't for the life of me remember their names.
