Bill Posted August 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Its not a quiz as such just a bit of daily trivia but you can answer it if you like. If people know it, all well and good, if they dont know it they've learnt something. But its there to be answered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 I know nothing about the Eagle Cricket Club, Never heard of it, but the Riverside AFC is a club in the North East (Durham area I seem to remember) I don't know if they changed their name, but if they did it would probably be to Chester Le Street or something else from the area.

The Beard Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Being the saddo I am, I know Eagle Cricket Club was Leyton Orient. They changed their name because most of the players worked for the Orient shipping line. Riverside AFC, I would guess at Middlesbrough, for the obvious reason as their ground is called that. Although other teams near a river maybe considered such as Stockport (River Mersey), Ipswich (River Orwell), Cardif (River Taff) but i'll stick with Boro.

The Beard Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 No idea, so going to have to be complete guesses and as they support City I will plump for Colin bell and Mike Summerbee. If they are wrong I'll have Franny Lee or Dennis Law as he put Utd down playing for City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beard Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 If any of them are wrong . I will add, as a diplomatic touch from Oasis for sales purposes, George Best. Must have at least one right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q: Who were the last two English managers to win the Football League (Carling) Cup? I reckon this could be going back with the foreign and successful Scottish managers we have had. Steve McClaren with Boro, mid 2000's and David pleat when he managed Luton in the 1980's, although that may be to far back, are my guesses.

The Beard Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Can't even think of teams who have won it twice, unless he has managed two different clubs, either way a struggle is at large, so I will throw in Maldini, Hiddink and any German who managed Bayern Munich.
