Dalziel Kane Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I'm not really one for International soccer and aren't even aware of all the participants for the finals in Ukraine this summer. Did Portugal qualify this year?, I'll say Ronaldo then, if not him then The Netherlands and Van Persie, not sure about them either that they made it.

Dalziel Kane Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Could be Mills actually, I was thinking Matteo but not sure about him. Surely not Ferdinand , that would be too far back. What about Beckford when he was there, did he get a cap for any of those trivial games they sometimes play, could be any of those but will go with the initial answer.

Matteo is Scottish and Beckford is capless - pretty sure smith is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 what about the goalkeeper Robinson, he played at Euro 2004 I think and was a Leeds player at the time, it's a bit of a long shot but I'll go for it. Oh fuck it, I've just read 'scored a goal' , half asleep in my defense Someone mentioned Bowyer, that's a real good answer and what about Milner when he was there, can't leave him out.

c1982 Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Milner was u21 at Leeds as they weren't in prem for long with him - don't think Bowyer earnt a cap, maybe 1 or 2 but no goal. It'll be smith just before he moved to man u. They've been in the championship since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 I'll have a quick look at Wikipedia or something because I really don't know the answer etc To the best of my knowledge, the last question is Leeds United, Manchester United and I don't know the other, maybe Derby County. Leeds is for sure, but not confident about the other two. The Norway card player, I'll give a bit longer, but it wasn't Berg, you have to go back to the early 1980s to find an answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Told you I didn't know. I don't know (either) when this Footballer of the year awards thing even started so this presents an immediate problem. Bergkamp for sure, maybe Alan Smith, could be Merson also, Van Persie could be in this, Henry too, forgot about him, maybe Anelka as well. I don't think players like Drake and Bastin are involved in this, too far back for a Chapman era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times did an Italian side reach a European Cup Final in the 1990s more often than you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
