Summer Trivia - July

Post by MaddosMilkman » Mon Jul 01, 2013 8:05 pm

I'm happy to give this another month - the last one before the start of the season. Can Spyman make it a hat-trick?

Same rules as before, but this time there will be one question per day - a muliple answer question.

Anyhow, good luck too all those giving it a go!

I'll be optimistic and say I think I've got 16 or 17 of those at least. :)

Day Four

Name ten managers to have managed in the Premier League whose surname begins with the letter 'R'

I've got the scoring done - and surprisingly we have a new leader :o

It's pretty close though between everyone so far.

Not surprised - I've struggled, especially the Paul question.

I got 9 fairly quickly then had to rack my brains for a while before remembering a fairly obscure one (although I think he might have only been caretaker manager so not sure if it counts)

At first I discarded it, but to be fair Paolo is the Italian equivalent of Paul so I allowed it :lol:

You didn't have the same luck with Big Ron though ;)

Well I've been sat convincing myself that some really strange players may have scored 'random' hatricks and then happened to have been squad members in decent teams when they won the league!

We've had a lot of high scoring answers this month so I've tried to make today slightly tougher than normal. :lol:

Not sure how I did on that one. I just picked out the well known strikers that have played for teams that have won the league and assumed/hoped most of them have scored a hat trick at some point.

Yep, dont forget, it doesnt say that they scored the hat-trick in the same season as winning the league medal, or for the same club!

Yeh, it isn't actually as hard as it sounds.

I'm not sure I've got all 15, but I reckon I'm there or thereabouts.

This should be really easy but is not something I have ever paid attention to. I am pretty sure about 4 of them. The other 3 were guesses based on clubs having suprisingly good seasons.

Similar. 2 I'm certain on, another 2 I'd be surprised if they haven't won it, 1 who I think is likely and the other 2 based on having an exceptional season.

Out of the seven I went for, there are two very obvious ones and another that I'm pretty sure would have won it.

As for the rest, I'm fairly certain they all won an award. I just can't remember if it was this one or the LMA manager of the year.
