[Premier Quality]

Wasn't it the Spanish version of April Fools Day on the 28th December?

It was definately that.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Read it & weep - still at least he seems as surprised as the rest of us will be :icon_biggrin:

(Still you can prove anything with stats - stay at one club long enough then it's always possible. Should have been av goals per season)

Great quiz, Deutsch. Enjoyed that.

Don't know how to cut and paste the pic in here without it being enormous, but best dribblers in Europe https://twitter.com/DistanceCovered/status/1212011554037731555/photo/1

 

[Monstrum]

Absolutely insane if correct, adama is just a statistical anomaly

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Great quiz, Deutsch. Enjoyed that.

Cheers man. 60+ plays so far (but I think it only counts people who are actually registered on Sporcle) and doesn't look like anyone has hit over 70 yet...

 

[Gonby's Games Gone By]

63.

I can't believe I still (sometimes) call a certain Scandinavian Everton player by an ex-Wolves striker's name yet totally forget about the latter when I'm under pressure!

If I had one of those Men In Black memory-wiper thingies I'd definitely have another go. Some of the ones I missed...!

 

[YoungWolf]

Nice one Dan- I got 70!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Probably makes you the world leader right now, young man.

 

[YoungWolf]

Honoured

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Doesn't look like anyone has gone past that.

 

[NoodleWolf]

Fun quiz!

Fell just short of 60, ran out of time. Spent far too long trying to figure out who one of the latest CM's to score was! And I definitely forgot a couple I really shouldn't. Interesting to see when I'd finished the main chunk missing was from during the post-PL, pre-L1 era.

 

[Banjo]

Yeah I ran out of time too. Should have forced myself to skip if I thought for too long.

Here's a cool video which shows how well organised we are when we haven't got the ball, if anyone is interested.

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

I got 40 :icon_lol:

It would have been higher as there were a few players I could picture but could not for the life of me remember their names!

I think that theory of getting stupider as your kids get more intelligent must be true. I remembered some pretty obscure ones but missed loads of really obvious players (including several current squad members).

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

So it would have been higher if you knew the answers.

Happy New Year Trev x

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Gave up after 5 minutes on 28. I am just too shit at remembering names.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I admire your honesty, mate.

28 though! You've had a season ticket for literally every year (I haven't)

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I can picture the goals. I can picture the people. I just am awful on names. Awful. You lot are lucky I can remember everyone in the pub!

It's weird

I can keep in my brain some ridiculous chess variations going acres of moves deep, and I can picture the board in my head without one set up in front of me. I can move the pieces in my head, and work out where they all are at the end of the variation and think about what I think about the position, but can I remember the name of a Wolves player? Nope. Brains operate in strange ways...

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

So it would have been higher if you knew the answers.

Happy New Year Trev x

It would have been higher if my memory wasn't completely shot to shit (only slightly higher, mind). I knew who some of the players were, just had a complete mind blank on their names (including your favourite full back - I could have had another 10 minutes and still not remembered his name!)

Happy New Year too mate. Keep the quizzes coming.

 

[PuntsWolf]

67. I’m giving myself 68 though as I was bashing someone in and it wouldn’t accept my spelling. Also had two players in my head but their names were alluding me but that’s the game.

Spent so long getting the majority of the the early years I missed easy ones from the Jackett/Zenga/Lambert years but I spent most of my time on my phone at those games anyway.
