    Did I seriously miss Bale off the hattrick list <doh>

    Is Carragher one of the England players? I was sure my 6 were going to be correct :(

    My first thought was a quirk of geography made Wet Spam more northern than Spurs.

    My next thought was "Was he player manager somewhere?" - which makes it either Oxford or the Seattle Sounders. So I'll toss a coin and say...Oxford.

    The reason I said it wasn't Spurs to question 5, is because I was going to say it is Oxford City. But as it seems from other answers it refers to the PL, that is why I withdrew my original comment.

    On question 3, I think one of my answers would have been Craig Bellamy, but it seems that would also have been wrong.

    Beginning to wish I'd never seen this thread <laugh>.

    I'd forgotten about his stint abroad, that might turn out to be a good shout. Where's the OP when you need him ??

    Seattle is a bit to the South of us. Parallel with Paris, roughly. Redknapp was the assistant at Oxford City, so I think it's us.

    I found this quite easy as you've given all the answers.

    And I didn't even have to ring 999 for help from the police (in joke).

    Try these:

    1. Which team runs out on to the pitch to the strains of "Into The Valley" by The Skids?

    2. Which former Oldham, Man City and England B defender might be confused for a member of The Skids?

    3. Which team might you associate with a Skids song, which was later covered by U2 and Green Day?

    4. Which 1979 Skids album might be apt for Spurs, Newcastle and Chelsea (and previously Liverpool) this season?

    I know very little about music, so I am inclined to say Charlton come out to "Into The Valley".

    Just as I write that, I remember they come out to "Red red robin".

    Hbic - Barry has not played for England across 3 decades, John Hartson has not scored a hat-trick, Bale got one this season v Villa...Roo will be so upset you're wrong! Well done on Carra though!

    Still one Englishman over 3 decades to get and the hat-trick merchant v England.

    The last Englishman is a real swine to get, I had to double check the answer myself as this player only just scrapes 1999 2010 with 23 apps as a defender.

    And luke, its only fair to put correct answers up as they come in.

    <ok>
