75?

 

He'd took the England job by then.... Sir Alf get dumped by the FA after the failure to qualify in 73..Joe Mercer was caretaker for a year or so then Revie got the gig full time

I'm not sure tbh - I know he managed Leeds in the 70s at some point, couldn't tell you when though.

Last, last clue. Played for Sunderland in 73 and Blyth in 78.

Well this is the first one I don't know the answer to not gonna pretend I do.

Ron Guthrie.

 

Good question tbf. Just ran it through Google now and not a sniff.

Tbh, I've heard it as a quiz question but I do know for a fact he played in every round because I've asked him. I'm not convinced 100% he's the only one to have done it though. Although it would be virtually impossible for a player to do it nowadays because I think larger non-league sides haven't played all the qualifying rounds for years now.

 

Next time you see him, tell him that Stevie has never heard of him. :D

 

Nah like I say, wasn't doubting it. I just mean it's a good question as it doesn't come up automatically on a google search as far as I can see. Because Google can pretty much remove the whole point to these types of quizzes when people arent playing fairly.

Anyone that uses google is a cunt.

 

:jesuswept:

 

I never use it for stuff like this though as what would be the point? Only for checking summat afterwards/checking if it's already out there when setting a question.

What would sort the boys out from the men is a 30 second timer on the questions. There's questions answered by some in this thread and I've thought aye ye didnt even naa who John Anderson was let alone, that Raducioiu played in Spain.

Name and Shame!!!

:o

Well they've got three letters in their name and hair like Carlos Puyol.

Zizou

That's two with Pele.

Is Breitner one? He scored in '82 (I think) when West Germany got stuffed off Italy. Garrincha mebbies? Pure guess that like.

Pele's one. Breitner?

 

both right Alex, 2 more, not mac's 2 though..

aye, I read the question wrong.

 

Zidane scored in 2006 and 98 iirc. Not sure about 98 though. Was that the one where Ronaldo was not going to play?

Presuming one of the Brazilans (other than Pele) scored in both 58 and 62 as they won both finals with quite a glut of goals. Couldn't tell you who like.

Must be. Pele didn't score in '62 btw as he got injured. Scored in '58 and '70 though, obviously.

Youre spot on with your theory, I think he may have even played in a world cup before Pele made his debut...

If he scored in 1950 I demand a recount as there wasn't a final, strictly speaking, in 1950 :jesuswept:

In fact, nar he did, he scored twice cos' I remember the 2nd was right on half time.

PEDANTS CORNER! :D

 

Brazil played Sweden after a round robin, but they were one and two in the mini league only seperated by a point, the last game was between those two.
