6.

Very respectable, straight bat, foot-planted, forward defensive effort.

Not too upset I got the Lawro question wrong. Who can predict what that bell-end thinks about football?

Well, thats a kick in the knackers.

3.

Felt really confident too. Those stats on goals scored by Chilavert/Fontaine/Clough etc are awesome.

Thought a 'quote' was in order Bill, as I got the same score. And I was so sure I would get, ooh, four at least.

I knew the Clough stats (sorry if this is spoiling it for others, but do the quiz first then look here!) because people only remember him as a manager.

And as for the number of goals scored by Chilavert :eek: . I think most were penalties but I seem to remember reading somewhere that he took free kicks as well.

Wadd'ya think - should we be expecting 10-15 goals a season from Robbo?

I reckon he could get 20 if Tim Howard was in the opposition net

Maybe more, if we could put Tim Howard in the opposition goal every week. :wink:

Today's quiz is all about the 1986, which I remember so well.

Which is why I got 3.

And one of the options is Frank Arnesen, which put me in a bad mood for the day. Here's a clue: he's not the right answer. Between receiving the ball and making a pass he got an offer from another club.
