Watford (H) 20/10/18 Build-Up

Is Number 5 Steve Kabba? Though I'd have thought he'd have scored more than one goal for Watford, I thought he was there a while!

Bingo. Yes he was there a while.....scored one. Against us.

Pretty sure he also scored against us for Grimsby a few years before.

Always the way!
How weird! I always assumed he was there basically the whole time until he ended up at Barnet!

4) Who made his Wolves debut at Vicarage Road in September 2005?

Strap-on Boy?

Yes (how you choose to remember him is up to you)

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I meant Big Leon. I thought he started the early games under Dave Jones after our brief sojourn in top flight football. Pretty sure first match was Brizzle away on the box.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Oh I see!

We played Stoke on the opening day, we were shit and lost, he came on at half time. He also played vs Preston a few days later at home, scored as well (with his shins, from about eight inches out). The night of the great Paul Jones flapathon.

When you say "relegation" you really need to be more specific

 

[malta mick]

great quiz - i got the square root of fuck all correct.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

You have to go obscure these days as people can't be trusted and they cheat. I used to do quizzes on here regularly but they got ruined.

If I have time, I'll do more of them as people like them (but they'll always be pretty tough to make it less of a "who can use Google the quickest in their lunch hour" exercise).

 

[lemonjelly]

Agree with Mick. Dunno how most of you lot remember this stuff. I'm not sure I can remember what I had for dinner...

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Langers is pretty good tbf. He'd never take me on head to head though, he knows which fights to avoid.

 

[Pompey Wolf]

Of course the correct answer to number 2 was that it was my first ever game. I was told Bully was the guy wearing 9 and basically spent the entire game just watching him. He scored, obviously.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

That kicked off a really good run for us.

Watford (H) W 2-0
Bristol City (A) L 1-2
Tranmere (A) D 1-1
Oxford (H) W 2-1
Peterborough (A) W 1-0
Bolton (H) W 1-0
Crystal Palace (H, FAC) W 1-0
Crystal Palace (H) W 2-0
Nottm Forest (A) D 0-0
Port Vale (A, FAC) W 2-0

Then some filthbag injured Bully at Vale and it all rapidly fell to pieces, and Turner was gone inside about six weeks.

 

[Pompey Wolf]

Yeah my second game was a 3-0 defeat at Pompey, might have been Turner’s final game actually? I was only 6 so didn’t really take much in to be fair.

Yeah, that was the end for him. Sir Jack went mental on the coach after by all accounts and he was gone.

He had to go tbh. I covered it all here (shameless plug):

That series is sort of restarting this Christmas. Details later obvz.

 

[Pompey Wolf]

Hah yeah that’s probably where I got the added Turner info’ from to be fair!

I remember getting 1 question right on a quiz you did and being proud of myself for days.

Machin and I were chatting before the villa home game last year, and he likened our memories as being "the anti-dan" in comparison :icon_lol:

True. I see myself as Modric to your Messi.
