This one was never answered.

Was it our own late great Eamon Andrews, who went on to the embarrasment that was 'This is your Life'?

I know he presented some radio sports program way back when.

DMC

And that was the one. Correct!

Sorry about the delay, I was away for Christmas, but I forgot about this completely. :dunno:

Which country adopted Irelands green jersey for their away colours - after playing ireland in their first football match?

Big Ears

i know Northern ireland. seriously though il go with Mexico

Zaph

West Germany

Hairy Homer

I thought it was West Germany because Ireland was the first country to play them after the war? Nobody else liked them but hey, our Taoiseach had signed the book of condolences when Adolf popped his clogs.

OK I'm claiming the rights to a question for being old enough to remember Eamonn Andrews on the radio.

What have the following international soccer players got in common?

Meunzenberg (Germany 1930s)
Posipal (West Germany 1950s)
Iribar (Spain 1960s)
Mahut (France 1980s)
Michel (Spain 1980s)

Clue: Irish connection

Guess, they all scored in Dalymount

Hairy Homer

Jaysus, how many people have scored in Dalymount over the years. Even if you're only talking about on the pitch, fnaar fnaar.

So far as I know these guys are the only members of an exlusive group with a particular achievement to link them all. Which is....?

Ginger McCain

20 Times 20 Times

thats the crrect answer but ... i think you googled the question and got the answer which is very lame .......... no fun in that at all any way i have no proof so your question !

Davey Devil

To be honest i didn't know the Red Rum answer a googles it but I did know the o.g one. I wanted them both correct cause it's abit crap having 2 questions on the go at the same time. Anyway the red rum one was a rubbish question far to easy just to search for it. I still don't know if the o.g one is correct all i know is that michel lad scored an on o.g against us so I'm presuming the others did too.

20 Times 20 Times

so your fun is googling for the answers :S strange to me cos nots point of the quiz .. if it was we could call it the google sports quiz ?

kmart6

Well since this is nearly dead im going to try and get it going again


Which N.F.L. Q.B. has the record for throwing a touchdown pass in 15 straight play-off games??


Fairly easy one to get going again

Stake

It's the mighty Brett Favre.

Davey Devil

Not so mighty last week, what the hell was he doing throwing that pass, lost me a possible 200 euro.

Stake

Blame the defense and the 4th and 26 moment...

Davey Devil

Yeah, that was the main reason they lost but still that pass was a shocker. I know he throws a few wild ones now and then but that was just taking the piss.

kmart6

Told you it was an easy one

Bit of a wild overtime by Brett,it's those type of passes that are stopping him from being the best Q.B. ever

Stake

Well that's always been Favre's style. It's apity he was put in that position in the first place if you ask me. Dreadful defense on that 4th and 26 cost Green bay their spot in the championship game.

Anyways, how does this work? I got it right, so i ask a question?


Ok.

Which pundit of the game once famously remarked "Football is a game of 120 minutes and then the Germans win on penalties"?

Big Ears

il guess bobby robson since he was the England manager at the time.

Stake

Nope. Guess again.

gerire

Lineker,
or Lynham or someone to that effect

Stake

Correct. It was Linekar. Your move, gerire.

gerire

Sorry about the delay in getting back here. Completely forgot about this. You're kinda right. They have all actually scored own goals FOR Ireland. Or scored while playing against Ireland.

Put enough pedantry.
