Guy Mowbray (2)- [King Rollo, awardinary]

Martin Tyler (2)- [Dobbo, Sarah]

Peter Drury (1)- [CowTzy]

Clive Tyldesley (1)- [PeteFromLeeds]

 

It is a case of two joint top answers for this question between BBC's main football commentator Guy Mowbray who you would hear on Match of the Day and former Sky Sports commentator Martin Tyler who both were known for their Aguerooooooooo in the conclusion of the 2011/12 Premier League season. CowTzy gets a point for going for Peter Drury who has commentated on the Premier League for ITV on their Premier League highlights programme which ran from 2001 to 2004 on 'The Premiership' BT Sport and now Sky Sports. PeteFromLeeds gets a point for Clive Tyldesley who commentated on Match of The Day when he was working for the BBC, for ITV for 'The Premiership' programme and recently for Amazon Prime.

5)- An Premier League manager you consider to be an legend

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sir Alex Ferguson (All)

 

 

For this question, it is a case of just the one answer with you all going for Sir Alex Ferguson who I quite agree with, is an legendary Premier League manager who took Manchester United to 13 Premier League titles, a record unless Pep stays on in the future will never be broken again in my lifetime.

 

 

6)- An player that has played in the Premier League you consider to be an legend

 

 

 

 

Cristiano Ronaldo (3)- [Dobbo, PeteFromLeeds, awardinary]

Frank Lampard (1)- [CowTzy]

Thierry Henry- (1)- [King Rollo]

David Beckham (1)- [sarah]

 

For this question, there were four answers for this with three of you going for Cristiano Ronaldo being the most popular answer. We also have Frank Lampard, Thierry Henry and David Beckham.

7)- An venue that has hosted Premier League football in the past.

 

 

 

Highbury (2)- [Dobbo, King Rollo]

Stadium of Light (1)- [CowTzy]

Upton Park (1)- [PeteFromLeeds]

Turf Moor (1)- [awardinary]

Wembley Stadium (1)- [sarah]

 

Onto question 7, and we have a mixture of answers here but the top answer is Highbury which was the home of Arsenal until 2006 where they moved to The Emirates Stadium. CowTzy went for Stadium of Light which is the home of Sunderland which first hosted Premier League football in 1999 til 2003 before Sunderland were relegated, Sunderland would back in the Premer League in the 2005-06 season however it was the second lowest points total with just 15pts, Sunderland would return to the Premier League in the 2007-08 season where they would stay there until 2016-17 season, since then Sunderland haven't been back in the Premier League. PeteFromLeeds went for Upton Park which was the home of West Ham United and briefly by Charlton Athletic. West Ham would play their last game in 2016 at Upton Park after 113 years before moving to the London Stadium formly the Olympic Stadium for London 2012. awardinary went for Turf Moor which is the home of Burnley. Turf Moor has hosted Premier League football for 9 seasons between 2009 and 2023-24. Sarah went for Wembley Stadium which was the temporary home for Tottenham Hotspur which hosted Premier League football from the 2017/18 season to the 2018/19 season whilist White Hart Lane had been demolished and their new stadium 'Tottenham Hotspur Stadium' was being built.

8)- An team that you would like to see in the Premier League

 

 

 

 

Bristol City (2)- [King Rollo, awardinary]

Luton Town (1)- [Dobbo]

Ipswich Town (1)- [CowTzy]

Leeds United (1)- [PeteFromLeeds]

Oxford United (1)- [sarah]

I went for Bristol City as they were the only club in the top half of the Championship table when I looked at it that had never been in the Premier League. I'm glad someone else picked them.

9) An Premier League player or manager you consider to be an flop

 

 

 

Jaden Sancho (1)- [Dobbo]

Frank Lampard (manager) [1]- [CowTzy]

Antony (1)- [King Rollo]

Andy Carroll (1)- [awardinary]

Paul Jewell (1)- [sarah]

 

Don't think I can answer this one (0)- [PeteFromLeeds]

 

10)- An Premier League moment that you consider to be controversial.

 

 

 

 

Eric Cantona kungfu kick (3)- [Dobbo, King Rollo, Sarah]

Luis Diaz disallowed goal for offside in 2023-24 season (1)- [awardinary]

Nani’s goal against Tottenham which was assumed to be a free kick (1)- [PeteFromLeeds]

 

Wrong Answer:

 

Eden Hazard kicking a ballboy- CowTzy]

 

 

For the final question we have four different answers but unfortunately one wrong answer, the most popular answer was of course the Eric Cantona kungfu kick which happened on 25th January 1995 we also have Luis Diaz disallowed goal for offside against Tottenham where VAR failed to rectify the clear mistake, Nani’s goal against Tottenham which was assumed to be a free kick where Nani clutched the ball with his hands when he went to the floor, assuming he'd won a penalty. He hadn't, though, so technically he had committed a handball offence. Unfortunately CowTzy the Eden Hazard ballboy incident is a wrong answer as that took place in the 2013 League Cup semi-final between Swansea City and Chelsea. The ballboy Charlie Morgan is now the co-founder of AU Vodka and has featured in The Times' Richest Under 30 list.

Thank you to everyone who took part.

 

Much appreciated, :)

I'm happy to share 1st place. :)

 

Thanks Mack for hosting.

Nice one Mack, not really too fussed about the questions I scored low on but it pleases me as a Bristolian to see someone else pick them too as a team that should be promoted one day. ^_^
