    That's it. Run as an experiment in the late 60s/early 70s. United beat Watford 2-0 at Highbury the night before the FA Cup final with Brian Kidd getting both goals.

    EDIT

    You can just about make out the inscription

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,463 ✭✭✭Kiwi_knock


    Did a team have to play a game there due to their stadium being shut down or out of use. I really have no clue, fair play to anyone who gets it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,627 ✭✭✭Lawrence1895


    You could browse through

    Clue: There is an Irish club with the same connection but they have never played them.

    You were there? I was in the city but not in that stadium. Mind you it was over ten years ago!

    Nah, what I meant was that unless you were actually there and recognised the place, you'd never get it without googling!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,793 ✭✭✭Red Kev


    Miroslav Klose? God knows but he scored 5 today and was taken off with 20 mins to go!

    Claudio Pizarro has a couple as well I think.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 500 ✭✭✭Jarrod


    I'll take a guess with Dwight Yorke and Nicolas Anelka.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,066 ✭✭✭Washington Irving

    A record 4 players with the same surname have played for the same team in the PL.

    Can you the team and the 4 players with the same surname?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 500 ✭✭✭Jarrod


    Hmmmm, great question. I'll have a stab at Bolton with Mark and Kevin Davies. They've another fella I think called Craig Davies, but I'm not sure if he played in the PL, I don't know when he joined.

    If I'm not on the right track then I'd hazard a guess at the name being Taylor or O'Neil.

    Not the one I'm afraid. Great guess with Taylor though, 3 played for Bolton in the PL

    What about Campbell? Arsenal had Sol and Kevin. They also have another one who's name escapes me but he's on loan in La Liga at the minute. Any chance they had a fourth at some point?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 642 ✭✭✭CrabieCrawford


    Cole for chelsea?

    Carlton, Ashley, Joe and ????


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,422 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Not Campbell either


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,422 ✭✭✭✭Kolido

    Just 3, good guess though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,763 ✭✭✭Jax Teller


    Young Or Smith
    It's probably going to be a real common name .
