Tango Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Since I can't seem to find the original, how about sharing a few Football Quiz questions? I'll start us off with one I was asked recently. Name the player that has scored in a World Cup, a Champions League Final, won the Premier League, the League Cup and the FA Cup with two different sides, and never been transferred for a fee (Bonus kudos if you can name the matches and clubs involved).

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted October 18, 2015 Moderation Lead Posted October 18, 2015 Nicolas Anelka?
Tango Posted October 18, 2015 Author Posted October 18, 2015 Nicolas Anelka? Nope. Cost a fair bit in transfer fees I seem to recall!
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted October 18, 2015 Moderation Lead Posted October 18, 2015 Hmm, back to the drawing board then! Ha, missed the bit about transfer fees! D'oh!
Backroom Mike E Posted October 18, 2015 Backroom Posted October 18, 2015 I want to say Kanu. Didn't he win the FA cup with Arsenal and Portsmouth?
bullyboyz Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Took some brain racking but think i know it...One of those blindingly obvious answers as well once you stumble across the name! don't want to get the answer so soon after the question has been posed though. Have you plenty more quiz Q's to come Tango...

Without any research I'm tempted to say Manu Petit based on the facts he scored in the 1998 World Cup final and played for Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea.
Tango Posted October 18, 2015 Author Posted October 18, 2015 I want to say Kanu. Didn't he win the FA cup with Arsenal and Portsmouth? 'Fraid not. Without any research I'm tempted to say Manu Petit based on the facts he scored in the 1998 World Cup final and played for Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea. Nope. All three of the guessed players so far are in the right area...
Backroom Mike E Posted October 18, 2015 Backroom Posted October 18, 2015 It does say World Cup, not necessarily the final. That's why I went Kanu, for Nigeria. Interestingly also won the UEFA Cup and Olympic Gold! Ah....He's missing a League Cup win! Does scored in a CL final mean he didn't win it? Maybe Sol Campbell? Didn't he score for Arsenal vs Barcelona in that final?
Tango Posted October 18, 2015 Author Posted October 18, 2015 Maybe Sol Campbell? Didn't he score for Arsenal vs Barcelona in that final? We have a winner! It is indeed Sol Campbell, having scored for England in a 1-1 draw with Sweden at the 2002 World Cup, in the 2006 Champions League Final for Arsenal, won the Premier League and the League Cup with Arsenal and the FA Cup with Arsenal and Portsmouth, and never cost a penny in transfer fees. Will see if I can remember any other trivia questions, but everyone's free to volunteer!
Backroom Mike E Posted October 18, 2015 Backroom Posted October 18, 2015 How about, the winner has to set the question? Name the 6 Davids (First name) to hold a Premier League medal.
sambo Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 How about, the winner has to set the question? Name the 6 Davids (First name) to hold a Premier League medal. David Beckham. David Platt David Seaman David De Gea Can't think of the other two though sadly!
arbitro Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 David Beckham. David Platt David Seaman David De Gea Can't think of the other two though sadly! David Batty David Silva
sambo Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 David Batty David Silva Can't believe I forgot Batty!
Backroom Mike E Posted October 18, 2015 Backroom Posted October 18, 2015 Batty is incorrect. He refused to accept his medal as he felt his 5 games that season didn't warrant it. So there's one more David (who did play for Rovers, funnily enough).
Backroom Mike E Posted October 18, 2015 Backroom Posted October 18, 2015 Well done! Blue Cabbage, you have the honours...
adsfortheblues Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Batty is incorrect. He refused to accept his medal as he felt his 5 games that season didn't warrant it.

Blue Cabbage Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Who is the only player to have scored a hat-trick in all four tiers of professional football in England, FA Cup, League Cup and at international level?
arbitro Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Who is the only player to have scored a hat-trick in all four tiers of professional football in England, FA Cup, League Cup and at international level? Luther Blisset?
Butty Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Who is the only player to have scored a hat-trick in all four tiers of professional football in England, FA Cup, League Cup and at international level? I know this one, Robert Earnshaw!
Backroom Mike E Posted October 18, 2015 Backroom Posted October 18, 2015 I'll let others have a go, but it's a classic question
Blue Cabbage Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Yup a classic but only one I could think of without Google!! Robert Earnshaw is correct. Butty, you're up
Butty Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Who is the only player to have scored in the Merseyside Manchester and Glasgow derbies?
