Topic: Right then, brainboxes - an other-stuff quiz (no Googling of course)

[Barrow Shaun]

It's Sunday, the lady is sat on the bed doing work shit....seems like a good idea. Anyway....

Some of these will be hard. Good.

Q1: Scorer for Borussia Moenchengladbach (?) in 1977 and the English team he went on to play for later (2 answers)
Q2: 2 missed penalties for Roma in 84, and one for us (3 answers)
Q3: Which 2 players scored for them in the Istanbul shoot-out? (2)
Q4: West Ham's 3 goals in the 06 Cup Final (3)
Q5: What happened in Barnes and Beardsley's first game together down at Arsenal (score, goalscorers, detail... 4 points available here, my points system)
Q6: Who got the other goals (for us or them) - Beardsley hattrick v Man U (1), Salah's away hattrick v Man U, (2) Kuyt's hattrick v Man U (1) ....  (4 points)
Q7: 'Neutral' grounds where we've won trophies (no idea with this one really, just thought it was interesting, and I can at least think of some)
Q8: Since 1980, teams to have put 5 or more past us (sorry) in competitive games (I've got 3 but the trauma of these things probably blocked something out)
Q9: 5 goals or more (to 0 or 1 tops) AWAY from home (since about 1980, sorry, can't go back further). Fill your boots......
Q10: The goals, and absolutely in the precise, correct order, of that magnificent 4-3 v Newcastle, the first one of course. (7 points)

Good luck.

Q1 Simonsen, Charlton?

[duvva 💅]

Q2 Nicol for us, always remember this as I didn’t really know who he was and thought we’d lost as I’d never seen a penalty shoot out

[Barneylfc∗]

6 - John Barnes?, Keita and Jota, Hernandez

[Barrow Shaun]

Q1 Simonsen, Charlton?

Some good ones, but I'm not having that Monaco place because that European Super Cup shit isn't a real trophy.

edit: League Cup Final wins?

another edit: if that Khalifa place and the King Power are Charity Shield and World Club Cup thing, nah also, sorry - good answers though)

[child-in-time]

Carra scored an own goal in the 06 FA Cup final. Ashton and Konchesky scored the other two.

1-5 Coventry in about 92/93
3-6 Arsenal League Cup 06/07

No idea!

Fowler scored in the second minute I think. Ferdinand equalised in about the 10th. 90tj minute winner, the rest I’d be guessing!

League Cup final replays in 81 and 84. I'll go with Maine Road and certain of Villa Park (don't know which year was which though)

7. We won 2-1 at Highbury in the lovely silver away kit. Barnes and Beardsley combined to set up Aldridge to make it 1-0. Arsenal equalised but don’t quite know who (want to say Rocastle or Paul Davis?). Nicol won it with a late header from literally the edge/outside of the box.

Had the same thought - wasn't so sure though.
