And so on. ......... A defender who Gerard Houllier payed a reported 500k for in 1999. Currently playing in the Championship, on loan from a Premiership club. He's an International but does not play for the country of his birth. Title: Re: Football Quiz Game Thing Post by: TightEnd on May 09, 2009, 07:26:42 PM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djimi_Traor%C3%A9

Title: Re: Football Quiz Game Thing Post by: celtic on May 20, 2009, 03:05:11 PM Carlos Edwards?
Title: Re: Football Quiz Game Thing Post by: TheChipPrince on May 20, 2009, 03:14:30 PM Carlos Edwards? I thought this, but no. Carlos played for Wrexham, then Luton, then Sunderland... (he's also played for 4 English league teams) Looking at the clue again it says: He has played for 3 teams in England, including Wrexham, and then he moved North of England to ply his trade. It doesn't say 'the North of England', it says 'North of England, so I presume he played in Scotland (hopefully its not completely bizarre and he moved to Iceland or somehwere!) Can we establish Peckham as the area he grew up, of Black origin, and moved from Wrexham to a Scottish side?? I also think the fact Horner has mentioned his junior goalscoring exploits is a throw off, clever that lad, defender I reckon... Title: Re: Football Quiz Game Thing Post by: dino1980 on May 20, 2009, 03:37:42 PM I thought this clue: He used to live in the same neighbourhood as 2 brothers who had an Uncle who joined the Royal Navy at aged 17
Meant that he had perhaps played for Bolton (the trotters) Title: Re: Football Quiz Game Thing Post by: Horneris on May 22, 2009, 02:07:29 AM I'm spoiling this.
A couple more clues. He did indeed move from Wrexham to North of not just England, but The United Kingdom as a whole. This player has also plyed his trade in Spain. He grew up in Peckham, thats all i meant by that clue, i admit it wasnt a great clue, but its my first try at this This player had an over 4 goals a game ratio between the ages of 10 and 14. His father played in Goal for an African international football team. He used to live in the same neighbourhood as 2 brothers who had an Uncle who joined the Royal Navy at aged 17. He has played for 3 teams in England, including Wrexham, and then he moved North of England to ply his trade. should be easy enough now.

At the age of 19 he became the youngest player to play in all four divisions of the Football League and during his playing career he won promotion with three seperate sides. He was to go on a play over 500 league games during his career. He had this career despite his missing a muscle in his back. After winning a League Championship medal he did so at a second club, as well as achieving European success with that club. He became a Player Manager at Bolton Wanderers, Assistant Manager in the South West and at a Current relegation threatened Premiership team and Joint Manager in Yorkshire as well as a brief spell as Manager of a non league team.
