Piacenza Leffe Verona Piacenza Parma Atalanta Juventus AC Milan? Did someone get this? Filipo Inzagi is it?

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:15 (twenty-two years ago)

That Dave Watson went to Europe eventually - Werder Bremen, maybe? I remember him scoring the first for England vs Bulgaria in '79, when debutant Hoddle got the second.

FC Groningen Ajax PSV Barcelona Feyenoord

AC Milan Real Madrid Inter Milan Chelsea Monaco Roma

― Davel (Davel), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Lincoln Newcastle Millwall Coventry Leeds Man City Notts Forest Norwich is surely Darren Huckerby, no?

― Mark C at work, Friday, 12 December 2003 16:29 (twenty-two years ago)

Frankfurt Fenerbahce PSG Bolton is Jay Jay Okocha.

― Tim (Tim), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:31 (twenty-two years ago)

FC Groningen Ajax PSV Barcelona Feyenoord is "Rocket" Ronald Koeman, lovely feller.

― Tim (Tim), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:35 (twenty-two years ago)

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:43 (twenty-two years ago)

I have the questions on this excel quiz spreadsheet and it doesn't like Jay Jay Okocha at all I have tried all he spellings I can think of and with and without a hyphen nad JayJay all one word and the dam thing won't say it's right.

Nice work with Koeman though!!

― Davel (Davel), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Augustine Okacha?

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:45 (twenty-two years ago)

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:45 (twenty-two years ago)

AC Milan Real Madrid Inter Milan Chelsea Monaco Roma

I know who this is but I'm not telling because I'm hoping that Ronan explodes and we hear it clean across the Irish Sea.

― Tim (Tim), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Jay Jay is a nickname according to Sensible World Of Soccer

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Frankfurt Fenerbahce PSG Bolton-this is without doubt okocha/okacha/jay jay/augustine jay jay.

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Ro: he had 7 starts and a run out as sub according to Soccerbase.com.

AC Milan Atletico Madrid Lazio is apparently Demetri Albertini but I have to confess I cheated on that one.

― Tim (Tim), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:53 (twenty-two years ago)

of course!

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:54 (twenty-two years ago)

what is with Atletico signing quality Italians??

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:54 (twenty-two years ago)

Assuming I agree with Davel I think that's the lot.

― Tim (Tim), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:57 (twenty-two years ago)

It doesn't like Albertini!

― Davel (Davel), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Now I have no work done and it's close to going home time.

― Tim (Tim), Friday, 12 December 2003 17:11 (twenty-two years ago)

so were Gullit's and Zenden's club histories exactly the same up to Chelsea then? remarkable!

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 15 December 2003 11:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Den Bosch Feyenoord Sheff Wed Celtic RBC Roosendaal Sp. Rotterdam-Regi Blinker?
Again wasn't Sheff Wed after Celtic and not before?

Nah, it was definitely before, as Wednesday gave us him as a swap for diCanio. I have no idea who thought that was a good deal (OK, I can, i.e. everyone at Hillsborough and no-one at Parkhead).

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 15 December 2003 12:16 (twenty-two years ago)

No - can't be. He left Wednesday after the Paul Alcock comedy pushing incident for west ham, so it was before Wednesday that the ball hit the net and it wasn't Pierre or Cadete.

― Dave B (daveb), Monday, 15 December 2003 13:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Dave - are we at cross-purposes here? I'm talking about Blinker, not di Canio's career path. Blinker was a Wednesday player, di Canio was a Celtic player, Wednesda wanted di Canio so offered money. Celtic said no, so they offered money plus Blinker. Deal done. Hence Regi played for Wednesday before Celtic.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 15 December 2003 13:19 (twenty-two years ago)

ailsa correct, i rated Blinker

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 15 December 2003 13:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Good point well made.

Note to self - must read thread and comprehend before posting

I thought regi was a trier. He was very trying etc...

Speaking of celtic/Wednesday crossovers - whatever happened to Simon Donnelly and Phil O'Donnell?

― Dave B (daveb), Monday, 15 December 2003 13:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Simon Donnelly is playing (quite well, I believe) for St Johnstone. I imagine Phil O'Donnell is still on the treatment table...

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 15 December 2003 13:40 (twenty-two years ago)

three weeks pass...

Got this mail and "JJ Okocha" fills in the tick for this one
