    Mate was given a question by his brother and after a month he still won't tell him the answer so here's one for you people
    During the Premiership era which Newcastle United striker has played in goal for Man utd.
    We named all the people who have played for both and the answer was no,so it must be a trick question,does anyone have the answer?

    Player from the women's teams? Otherwise no idea.

    If it was Chelsea and Leicester it could be In'Goalo Kante.

    What was the exact wording of the question? Was the question asked written or spoken? Sometimes when people are asking trick questions they use homophones. Ask for the question in writing.

    What about at youth level? Could someone have started out in United's academy as a goalkeep?

    Alan Shearer was in goal, but i've never seen it. I presume he played for Newcastle in it?

    In the first, yes. Went to Real Madrid in second but wasn't sure about third (didn't bother watching that one). Google suggests he plays for England and Spurs though

    Did a Newcastle striker ever score with his hand? Prevent a Newcastle goal with his hand after getting in the way? Maybe slob into the Man Utd goal?

    Google brings nothing back so he’s probably just trolling him with an impossible question.

    Don't know where this as come from but think Keith Gillespie once played in net for Man Utd after their keeper got sent off, I could have imagined this though. Google doesn't return anything.

    He played for Newcastle but wasn't a striker.

    Was that the main character? I meant Shearer. Didn't known if he moved to Man U in the films.

    Could try the Man U and Newcastle Boards if you haven't already.

    Have any Man U goalies gone on strike in Newcastle? Or been born in Newcastle?
