English players over £6m is what i meant... :oops: Title: You learn something new every day Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 14:55:13 number 1 is assuming you mean English players
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: Johno on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 14:56:18 would one for the english cap, be Seth Johnson?
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: McLovin on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 14:57:06 it's not Scott Parker, no.
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: mattboyslim on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 14:58:25 At the time of their transfers, although now capped, maybe Kirkland? Seth Johnson? Jenas? Andy Cole?
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: McLovin on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 14:59:34 Kirkland is one of them.
All 4 still don't have caps. Title: You learn something new every day Post by: DV on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:01:27 Malcolm Christie :?
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: mattboyslim on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:04:50 1 out of 4 ain't bad. I'm trying to think chelsea they are usually into such purchases, the number of players who've earned one or two friendly caps? Dunn, Glenn Johnson, christie, ehiogu???

Title: You learn something new every day Post by: DV on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:08:33 stan collymore?! clutching here. Jansen looks a good bet though....

Title: You learn something new every day Post by: Northern Red on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:12:54 Dean Richards of Tottenham (£8M) - was he capped?
Kevin Davies (£7M) - I hope he was never capped. I'm confident of those two... Richard Wright (£6M) - Got a feeling he'll have a friendly cap Title: You learn something new every day Post by: Northern Red on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:13:33 Franny Jeffers has played for England at least once hasn;t he?
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:13:41 good shout NR. I think Wright is capped though.
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: McLovin on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:15:36 Jansen isn't one - he never cost £6m.
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: McLovin on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:16:25 NR gets two... leaving one more!
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: Northern Red on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:16:26 For another million you could have had Ade Akinbiyi (£5M)
If he's worth 5 then Rory Fallon is worth £20M :soapy tit wank: Michael Bridges was only £5.6M - that was my other shout Title: You learn something new every day Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:17:00 Wright's got two caps
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: DV on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:17:11 You're right with Davies and Richard I expect.
Wright has been capped as has Jeffers. One cap/one goal... Title: You learn something new every day Post by: McLovin on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:18:45 To recap:
- Ekoku was teh first to bag 4 in a Premiership game - Davies, Richards, and Kirkland all cost over £6m (or equal) and don't have an England cap - No-one knows the first ever substitute in the Prem. Title: You learn something new every day Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:23:34 Michael Ball? Seth Johnson?
Title: You learn something new every day Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 15:24:06 Carl Cort!

There is one supposedly at the CG 3rd Nov, but we've not bothered to enter a side...doesn't say whether its general, sport or whatever. Over recent years every time anyone connected with STFC including the Trust have tried to organise something, we've entered, then its been cancelled, due to lack of numbers. Back in the mid 90's this stuff was organised by a fella called Dave Hollister, and there were some decent nights....especially when it was just about STFC.

Title: You learn something new every day Post by: mattboyslim on Friday, October 28, 2005, 09:36:43 Grimsby is defineately a place though, i'm sure other clubs technically play in slightly different metropolitan areas to their names, like aresenal aren't in woolwich anymore.

Title: You learn something new every day Post by: land_of_bo on Friday, October 28, 2005, 10:30:20 It was in Madagascar....
Quote Did you know the record for the most own goals in a match is held by a club from Madagascar, Stade Olympique l’Emryne. Their own goal fest was a mark of protest against a refereeing decision from the week previously. They were winning the match 2-1 when the referee awarded a very dubious penalty. Immediately after the penalty was scored, the referee blew for full time. This defeat meant Stade were out of the running for the championship. There very next match was against the newly crowned champions, Ademas. Directly, from each kick off Stade would turn tail and score an own goal. They did this 149 times in the same match, or a goal approximatly every 35 seconds. A novel protest, but extremely damaging to the goal difference. :shock: :shock: :shock: :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: Title: You learn something new every day Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, October 28, 2005, 10:46:39 Quote from: "mattboyslim" someone's already said bury. :oops: Bungle :oops: I was told it was Clyde!
