Came across an interesting fact.

 

Of the 352 players in their national squads for the 1966 World Cup, how many were playing for clubs outside their country? Scroll down for the answer.

 

 

 

 

 

8. A sign of the times.

Of the 8, 7 were playing in Italy, 1 in Spain. All were from European countries. All the 110 South and Central American players were playing for clubs within their countries.

Obviously I'm aware of the changes that have taken place, but those figures surprised me.

No idea bud, worked straight away from me. Be one for the admins to sort out which I aint pal. I'll tag @Rich to sort it out 'cos he gets the job done. He pulled a rabbit out the hat to get my username to fit all in one line it was amazing what he did for me.

Sounds like absolute chaos

 

 

 

 

 

Are those three nations getting a pass into the World Cup on the basis they played in the first one? Chile, Bolivia and Peru also played in the 1930 one, why dont they automatically qualify? Sounds ridiculous.

You should be able to see it by now. If you click the Newcastle Online banner at the top, what does it take you to?

Wasn't there a thread on here dedicated to photoshoping things from recent matches? Would be fun to kick that off again. Who used to set them up each week?

 

  Reveal hidden contents

Can't be assed to find it myself :lol:

 

 

Sorry to bump this, but just can't find the thread in the football section. Can anyone remember who ran it or what it's title was called? Tried searching for various things and just can't find it.

 

Thanks.

Not photoshopping per say, but it's not the paint thread is it?
