msc 18,439 Posted October 30, 2017 Someone had a piss on the pitch during a World Cup game a few years back. One of the Americans? I assume charon/Spade/TMIB/someone will have the answer faster than it takes me to google it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,218 Posted October 30, 2017 2 minutes ago, maryportfuncity said: Aye, so far as I can see she went one over on him by doing it on film as well. Some discussion available on line but photos of exactly what he did seem unavailable unless I'm looking in the wrong place. I mean, if he got his cock out and did it to disrespect the home fans that's one thing, if his bottle went down his shorts and came back full of yellow fluid, that's a bit different. Right? Lucozade have been handing out bottles of piss to footballers and sports people for years. I do not see an issue. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,519 Posted November 7, 2017 Great trivia question: Of the 139 Premier League-era managers who were British or Irish that have managed four or more games, only two have a win ratio of at least 50%. One is Alex Ferguson. Who's the other? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,439 Posted November 7, 2017 This has trick question written all over it. Tactics Tim Sherwood? Thinking of folk who had short but relatively OK runs, rather than your Allardyces or Moyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,519 Posted November 7, 2017 Tactics Tim isn't a bad shout, but it's someone with a shorter managerial run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,037 Posted November 7, 2017 Shot in the dark..Harry Redknapp. I know nothing about English football...as was said on Impossible today. overpaid under-achievers... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,519 Posted November 7, 2017 Nope. The clue is kinda in the question: he only managed four games. At the end of a season.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charon 4,943 Posted November 7, 2017 Brooking at the Ham had that didn't he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,519 Posted November 7, 2017 Brooking does have a 50%+ win ratio as West Ham manager, but only three of his games were in the Premier League. The rest were in the Championship after Roeder was fired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charon 4,943 Posted November 7, 2017 Fucking Giggs. Forgot about him.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,519 Posted November 7, 2017 Yep. Played 4, won 2, drawn 1, lost 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,439 Posted November 7, 2017 I went to look up Sherwood afterwards, and it turns out I completely forgot about his reign as Aston Villa boss. Completely ruined my otherwise perfectly good answer with all those losses, the sod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,519 Posted November 7, 2017 Whereas 14 foreign-born managers have a 50%+ win ratio: Ranieri, Van Gaal, Villas-Boas, Klopp, Hiddink, Benitez, Scolari, Wenger, Pellegrini, Mancini, Ancelotti, Mourinho, Guardiola, Conte. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,519 Posted November 7, 2017 The best win percentage for a British manager who didn't manage Manchester United or Liverpool (thus eliminating Evans, Rodgers and Dalglish)? Bruce Rioch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
themaninblack 2,112 Posted November 7, 2017 Spoiler Seems like the answer has already been given but was it Ryan Giggs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charon 4,943 Posted November 8, 2017 Re Spades quiz question, whit bout Phil Thompson? Tmib wid know better, but I can only find overall record of P33 W16. I think they won a cup treble that year so league must've been less, but I can't find that %. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,439 Posted November 8, 2017 ^ 14 wins 7 draws 3 losses? Or something like that? What I got from here, and a rough guess from googling the Guardian and BBC from the time.. Funnily I was thinking Gary McAllister from Houllier's other heart attack...don't think he was in charge of Leeds or Coventry in the top flight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
