Not an easy one.

I thought it was pretty straightforward.

Couple of players I'd totally forgotten about.

Especially in midfield.

Post by: SoccerHQ on June 05, 2010, 08:09:07 PM: Our home record against Wigan in the premier league:

P 5 W 0 D 2 L 3 Scored 1 Conceded 7

Away

P 5 W 3 D 1 L 1 Scored 10 Conceded 5

Interesting.

Christ, I couldn't have typed them all in in that time, even if I knew all of them.

Don't worry Timbo, half that team were also rubbish.

Post by: TheTimVilla on June 05, 2010, 09:06:27 PM: True, true.

I certainly don't recall the 7 lettered midfielder playing CM.

Here's a clue...... He's recently been caught kissing the badge of shit.
Title: Missing Men: Villa v Wigan 2006
Post by: TheTimVilla on June 05, 2010, 09:15:28 PM: Oh I realise. I just only recall him playing RM. Not saying he didn't play CM; just I don't remember it. I was probably pissed that day. It helped.

Post by: Des Little on June 05, 2010, 11:27:15 PM: I gave up on 9 mins, having got about five. That's freaked me out - I can name pretty much any line up from 1980 onwards until about 2002 then my memory's gone. Is that usual?
Title: Missing Men: Villa v Wigan 2006
Post by: PeterWithesShin on June 05, 2010, 11:59:10 PM: I got 5, the worst i've ever done on one of these by far. Oh the shame.

Snap - I got the other 9 players in around a minute, but took me 3 minutes to remember those two!

Couldn't get the LB, RM and LM.

First one fair enough, no excuse for the latter two.

Awfully managed more than awful. It was certainly better than the Wigan side they failed to beat.
Title: Missing Men: Villa v Wigan 2006
Post by: Breezeblock on June 06, 2010, 09:10:08 AM: 6:44. took me ages to get the right two. Cant believe I forgot the the right winger!

Although looking at that defence it's enough to give anyone nightmares.

Mark Delaney and Luke Young spring to mind.

Post by: Olof's Beard on June 06, 2010, 04:08:05 PM: It's the first time I haven't managed to finish a Villa one of these ever! Same as everyone else, I had forgotten the right back and I didn't realise the 7 letter midfielder was already in the first team back then. Time flies.

Or a fantastically bushy-haired Portugese.

Would be better if I did not struggled for the name of that European out of the Hair Band Brothers.

Broke the one minute barrier!

I only rewatched the season review the other day, so I suppose that's kind of semi-cheating... ;)
