You are a young thrusting youth, whereas I'm well past my sell-by date. At an age where, as Fred Astaire* so aptly remarked, "the only thing that goes up is your gums".

So I take my victories where I can :wink: .

I got 6 today. And for those of you who answered David Beckham for the 1st Englishman to play 100 times in the Champions league yesterday - only to be told the answer was Gary Neville, see here

A really poor selection of questions today is the only way I can explain my 3/10. Frankly, I didn't really care to know the answers. The only one I knew was where Robben was signed from, so the other two were guesses.

I did get 7/10 when I did The BBC Sports Quiz. I think they change this link but it should be good for today if anyone else wants to have a go.

I'm still recovering from the shock of reading Lawro's preview of Monday's game, where he says

Lawro said:
It will be a physical game and Bolton will be saying to themselves that these Spurs players think they can play, so let's see if they can. Let's make them hurry and give them an aerial examination, a physical examination, the lot.

:eek:

Rescung the thread from the obscurity of page 2 of this forum, I can only post another 6 today. Sorry to tell you youngsters there's loads of oldie questions again today.

And just to wind us all up - on on Alan Hansen.

6 for me too BOF.

But I see my glass as half-full, well 60% full. Thats my best score in a fortnight.

Back in business.

It was with a particular air of confidence that I hit the 'answers' button this morning, so when it came up with '3' I was gobsmacked.

Two of my answers hit the woodwork and I had another perfectly good one disallowed. That is so unfair!
