    Ever see the missing men game on football365?

    Hows about getting a wee game of it going. Seen as theres all the keegan madness going on I'll start it with the classic Liverpool Newcastle game (4-3 to pool at anfield). Guess the pool players from that game.

    GK-James
    Def- Ruddock & Scales
    ML- McManaman
    MC- Barnes
    FC- Collymore
    FC- Fowler

    maybe Jamie Redknapp for the (8) in midfield too though he wasnt a winger


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    James
    wright
    ruddock
    collymore
    fowler
    molby
    bjornabye

    in there anyway i think


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max


    Redknapp is the 8. Didnt have actual positions for them all so just whacked em down.

    Xavi neither molby or bjornabye are there


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    actually didnt they play 3-5-2 at the time not 442 with Wright or someone i cant think of making up the 3.

    cmon Liverpool fans


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max


    Yeah mac attack was the 7 i have at left full


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    if it was 3-5-2 (and thanks for McAteer Xavi) I think this is it minus one midfielder that for the life of me i know i wont get.

    LIVERPOOL (3-5-2): D James M Wright, J Scales, N Ruddock, J McAteer, J Redknapp, J Barnes, S McManaman, (?), R Fowler, S Collymore.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max

    google is a tool of the devil :p

    p.s. if your a pool fan you simply cant google or your a sham :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Hmmmmm I'm thinkin maybe Harkness?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    i think its a 5 letter player name


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Or Rob Jones.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max


    Yep missing the 5 letter


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    that was a fun 3player game (think your right Xavi) though i honestly remember nothing about Jones


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max


    yep jones it was. Damn i was just ready for that peaceful sleep :p

    I will be back with more! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    that was a fun 3player game (think your right Xavi) though i honestly remember nothing about Jones

    Usually played right back but think he played left in that game. That's what threw me. Got a horrible injury at a time where he was pushing for his England spot. Came back and played for West Ham for a while then retired. I think!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max


    Ok i wanted to do the united team that beat ipswich but i couldn't find it for the life of me to verify it.

    So heres another classic. Leeds beat liverpool 4-3 at Elland road in 2000. I'll post the answer this evening if noone gets it..

    Radebe and keane aren't in and smith is wrong position.

    So your just missin centre half and midfielder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Ok the only two players I cant think who played in midfield in that era and have 5 letter are Jacob Burns (Aussie lad) and Matt Jones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max
