SaintBobby Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 I was pretty chuffed to win the quiz challenge in the Channon suite on Saturday (although it was only head-to-head between me and another volunteer). Meant I won a home shirt, presented to me by Kelvin and AOC, which the club are going to get signed by the whole first team squad. Here were the questions, which I thought weren't too difficult, although they seem a lot harder when (a) you're drunk (b) you're standing in front of 150 people desperate not to make a total t!t of yourself and © you don't have access to google etc. I was contestant B. Question 1 to A: Who did Southampton play in the last competitive game at the Dell? Question 1 to B: Who did Southampton play in the first competitive game at St Marys? A2: Who has more Southampton appearances than any other player? B2: Who has scored more goals for Southampton than any other player? A3: Saints made it to two Wembley cup finals in the 1970s - who did they beat in the two-legged semi-final to make it to the League Cup final? B3: And who did we beat in a 3rd round replay on our way to the 1976 FA Cup Final. A4: In 1982, Southampton fielded a team consisting of six past, present or future England captains. Shilton and Keegan were two of them, name one of the remaining four. B4: And name one of the remaining three A5: In 1968, Ted Bates sold a player for a then British record transfer fee of £125,000. Who was it? B5: And who is Southampton's all time record signing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 Wouldn't have got either of question 3, but then that was a good decade before I was conceived. Ditto A5. Guessing Q4 is Channon, M. Mills and S. Williams. Can't think of the other. Know the answer to B5 and it's just plain sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets B Avenue Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 Shilton and Keegan never played together in the same Saints team. Will you give the shirt back tonight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the question was the Saints 1982 squad? I ain't giving the shirt back because they got a question wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 Rory Delap? Yep. He got Channon. I got Mills. Is Williams right? My other (wild) guesses would have been Alan Ball and Mark Wright. I'm just guessing there with players who played for England in that era. Mark Wright is probably right actually, I don't think Williams got that many caps.

Hatch Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 Dave Watson surely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets B Avenue Posted 23 November, 2010 Share Posted 23 November, 2010 We had 6 players during 1982 that captained England at some point in their career. Channon, Keegan, Ball, Watson, Wright and Mills. Watson last played for Saints in Oct 81 and left for Stoke in Jan 82. Wright signed March 82. Keegan and Channon left during the summer , which is when we signed Shilts. Bally left at the end of October and we signed Mills in his place. The 6 were never at the club at the same time, let alone play together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I knew I shouldn't have offered to chop up a few onions and mushrooms and open a bottle of wine for Mrs EoA ..... you beat me to the same conclusion!!! Of course Wrighty didn't become captain of England till after he left us (but the question does take this into account!!). Conflicting answers to top scorer ... surely Matt got over 200 for us, although Micky may have got more league goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
