The Merlin Swap Shop Game!!!

edited March 2010 in The Shed
This may be completely lost with some of our users but for a proportion (of a certain age) this could be hours of fun....

What you have to do

Give me the names of ex Premiership football players (in a tribute to all those Merlin premier league sticker albums i know you used to collect!)

The more random and obscure the better...


The Rules

Every post must contain a player's name (or you are out of the game)
If you duplicate someone else's post you are out of the game
The winner will be the last man (or women) left standing




here are a few to start you all of....

Jan Aage Fjortoft (remember when Swindon where in the premier league)

Bryan Roy (N.Forest)

Uwe Rosler (Man City)



is this Mega fun time or what??!!

    According to Wikipedia he is playing in Turkey - that is obscure and he is ex Premiership :P

    P.S. But yes I forgot about the ex bit and just went for an obscure sounding name opnly to be saved by him playing abroad!!

    My trip down memory lane is

    Temuri Ketsbaia

    the Georgian fella with no hair who played for Newcastle from 1997-2000 and would celebrate scoring goals like a complete pyschopath by running up to the advertising hoardings and kicking the XXXX out of them.

    And for proper Premiership obscurity, how about

    Mario Jardel

    Once a fearsome Brazilian striker who'd won 2 European Golden Boot awards, Jardel was snapped up for next to nothing to play for...Bolton.

    How on earth had Sam Allardyce pulled off such a coup?

    Well, it might have had something to do with the fact that Jardel now weighed about 42 stone. He turned up to to pre-season training as a big, fat knacker and after a handful of appearances to the supportive strains of "who ate all the pies" was never seen again...
