manxman8180 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Anyway, enough about quizzes. Did that 'manxblue' character manage to fight himself out of a paper bag in the Tynwald Inn car park or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonan3 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Billy Wright (William) (first captained England in 1948), Mick Mills (1978), Billy (William) Walker (1925), Frank Forman (1902). P.S. Kevin Keegan is actually Joseph Kevin Keegan, while Tony Adams is Tony (not Anthony) Adams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.K. Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Two questions from Jack - Rochdales' exciting u-12 no. 8 shirt: Which premiership player has won the European Cup, the UEFA Cup, the FA cup and the Premiership? Which team out of all 4 leagues does not have a letter in it's name from the word "Mackerel"? Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.K. Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Well done Declan - Swindon Town is correct. Although you edited your original post to make it look like you're quicker than you actually are - so you get a Red! Off you go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
