3) Who won European Footballer of the Year?

4) In which country was a special presentation made to this player?

5) Who was last years winner?

6) Which country won Euro 2004?

7) Who did they beat?

8) What nationality was their coach?

9) How many games was Arsenal's unbeaten run?

10) Who was banned and sacked for being found to have taken cocaine?


Increased difficulty:

11) Who won last years Pichichi?

12) Who is leading this years Pichichi competition?

13) Who is the top english scorer in the Premiership?

14) Who was the biggest transfer signing of 2004?

15) What is his nickname?

16) Which London club was celbrating its centenary year?

17) Which will be celebrating theirs next year?

18) What are they doing to signify this?

19) Which stadium has been empty on 2 occassions this year in the Champions League?

20) Which English club player has appeared in the most adverts on English TV this year.

1-6 points: Thierry who???

7-13 points: I like me football.

14-19 points: Football plays a big part in my life. Followed by the kids and the wife.

20 points: Sorry mate, can't come to the wedding. It's the derby.



Personally I think it's pish easy, but some of you aren't all that knowlegable, so we'll see how this goes and I'll add some more harder ones if it works out.

No no my dear gooner, "sad" was not the word you were looking for.... "Genius", I believe, was the appropriate term.

Now I'm confused. Are you implying the people who look them up are sad? Cos I didn't look up answers. Neither did anyone else.

Sadder then those people too lazy to go on google and look up all the answers

Did I win yet?

Haha.

Good good.

I have just realised though. If me and colourless are the only ones to know practically all the answers, HOW SAD DOES THAT MAKE US?
:D

Seriously never heard the name Pichichi before. Sounds like a pokemon! although i do know who the top scorers were.

More questions wont be necessary. I'll shut up now.

Balls.

I was one mark off on the score!


Still worse than AJ. Simple as.
:D
