Question 009
Eusebio - squad number 11 Started conversation Apr 21, 2001
The subject is record cap holders ...
... which is the odd country out; Wales, England, Scotland, Northern Ireland?
(I can't believe question 004 is still unanswered!)

Hmmm... This will need some careful thought by all three of me...

OK, I've got three potential answers...
Scotland:
Because their most capped player (Kenny Dagleish) is the only outfield player of the four record holders.
Wales:
Because their record holder (Neville Southall) has under 100 caps.
Wales:
Because Neville Southall is the only one still playing (I think).

Congrats, once again ... you really are going for the points GreyDesk ... that's a point for every version of yourself now

The answer I was looking for was Scotland and Kenny Dalglish being the only outfield player.
Question 009
Ormondroyd Posted Apr 23, 2001
I can confirm that Neville Southall is still just about playing. He recently turned out for Bradford City against St. Johnstone in a testimonial match, when all our regular 'keepers were either injured or out on loan.
I'm amazed they can still find kit to fit him these days...

Oh I don't know, it can't be that hard to find kit to fit. Our club shop (SheffU) sells everything from "new born" up to "XXXXL Lard Bucket/Fat B*****d" size.
I'd be more worried about the mobility issue. The game has speeded up just a tad since we (SheffU) employed Bill "Fatty" Foulke as a goalie.

You know, I hadn't thought of that. I'm sure that Mr Foulke also turned out for Bradford. So Big Nev is just maintaining an old tradition!
