I know you know, they wanted the answer and a new question so i gave them it

G|mp · 6 Mar 2006 at 22:18

Oh yeah i saw everyone ask you to put them out their misery

Who put you in charge of giving away answers and choosing who
picks the question anyway?

As i read it it was "give us the answer G|mp" which i was just about to type

So dont jump in next time, when ive set a question that cant be answered i
would like the gratification of reveling the answer

That ok with you?

Don't you mean O'Hoodle, O'Owon and O'Robbson

Tru · 7 Mar 2006 at 09:19

Magic , pure magic.

3 players with 3 O's in the surname.
NOT 3 players with O's in the surname , that wouldnt be very hard would it?

I'll give you a clue:- One of them sadly passed on not long ago. (Its not George Best , Nursie)

Gooner14 · 7 Mar 2006 at 09:21

Theres 4 (Knew the first 3, Googled the other one):

Peter Osgood,
Tony Woodcock,
Ian Storey-Moore

George Pelham Von Donop

There are 23 different last names for a team out of the 92 in England (e.g. City, United). Name them

Nursie · 7 Mar 2006 at 09:46

That will teach me to read posts properly

Here's a few to be going on with:

City
united
Town
Villa
Wanderers
Rovers
Wednesday
Hotspur
North End
Albion
Argyle
Forest
County

I'm assuming your list doesn't include "Ham" and "Vale" but can you confirm this?

Gooner14 · 7 Mar 2006 at 09:50

It includes ALL the end of names. So Ham and Vale are 2 more

I'm not sure that 2 part place names should really count (plus I remembered that it's actually "West Ham United" which should rule out "Ham" on the basis that it's not the end part

)
