I doff my cap to you Sir

Lets get this going again

How many players have scored more then 150 prenier league goals and can you name them ?

I am going to have to have a serious think about this one. Good question though, will certainly have me for a while....

Is it 5?

Ruud Van Nistelrooy
Andy Cole
Alan Shearer
Thierry Henry
Les Ferdinand
Can't think of another but Robbie Keane?

7, and no.

Its 4 Thomond

your right with Alan Shearer 260, Andy Cole 187 and Thierry Henry 174

Sir Les fell 1 short 149 , and Ruud depending on were you look didn't score 100 he got 95 league goals but other say he got 100 + but no were near 150 premier league goals .

So is Sherringham the 4th?

No he got 147 ....... going by the official Premierleague website

ah patns others have beaten me too it.

I had Alan Shearer and Thierry Henry. The only other 2 I can really think of are Robbie Fowler and Teddie Sherringham?

Damn, I was hoping everyone else would do all the hard work and I'd toe poke in the winner at the end.

Which would be apt, if not ironic.

Your right Robbie Fowler is the 4th highest with 163 ..................... Micheal Owen should be next if he ever gets another game 149 and Frank Lampard 144 and Wayne Rooney 126 should move up aswell .. dont think anyone will get past Shearer's 260 though

ha looks like I beat you too that greybeard


I reckon Thomond should go next coz he got 3/4 right

Anyone want to do a question ?

I will go:

Since 1960, name the six Oscar winning films for Best Picture that have the name of a real historical figure in the film title.

Rocky!

Patton
Gandhi
Amadeus

That is 3 Kenny...sorry Rocky isn't one of them Mickado.

Get one more Kenny and you win the question

minds gone blank ...........keep thinking of Forrest Gump

One was one of the greatest films of all time
One was a writer
One was someone in ww2

Off ya go, enough hints

Ben Hur.



...and Porkies?

Nope to Ben Hur greybeard. That was 1959...one year out. I don't know if that was a real life person as well. Good shout though.

Come on guys......one's a 90's film and the other is a 00's film. The other is an epic.

War film: Is it Schindlers List?

Capote?

Correct greybeard.....two more to get.

Sorry Mick, not capote
