Belter this, heard overnight on TalkSPORT, though sadly it assumes that football began with the advent of the Premier League...

Write down the letters of the alphabet from A-Z

Then name the Premier League's all-time (to date) leading scorer beginning with each letter - eg Shearer as the all-time top scorer is your one beginning with "S"


Come up with individual ones as you wish

I'll post the answer in a few days' time if I remember!

Hmmm. 5/8. Must do better!

I was hoping someone would answer that - I heard it on the radio and that Burnley and Wolves were two of the answers .... but someone will have to tell me who the third is!

Next question - NO GOOGLING! - which two players have played in most League Cup Finals - clue, it's 6 each, one played all 6 for one club and the other shared his between 3 clubs....

Maybe it should remain a mystery. Besides, it's better like that.

My brain hurts!!

[Glyn]

I could remember the one guy's first name but not his surname. My brain hurts!!
