    Aren’t there multiples for question 6? Apart from Joe Gomez, Djimi Traore? Jesper Blomqvist? Scott Carson? (With two different teams) Jorge Costa? Bob Bolder? (Although he was before it was called Champions League)
    Maybe I’m mistaken or misunderstanding the question?

    You are almost certainly right. I struggled with this one but then remembered an article in the Kentish Independent in the sixties about a New Zealand international goalkeeper called Peter Whiting who was at Charlton and I don't recall him ever making the first team.

    Hence my answer.

    Yes of course you're right. Bad question
    . On reflection I realise that when I was compiling the quiz Question 6 should have been "Which ex player has a European Cup winners medal" not a Champions League winners medal. 
    Bob Bolder was on the bench for the final and recieved a medal.
