so brainboxes - no googling

Andy Cole (Andrew) whatever - announced his retirement from football today - NOTE THE DONUT WHO SAID WE SHOULD SIGN HIM THE OTHER DAY LOL

Anyway he is 2nd top scorer of all time in PL behind Shearer with 187 goals. Shearer in his total of 260 something scored 56 penalties - How many did Cole score in his total of 187

Also name the 8 Premier League Clubs he played for

    So the 7 WSS listed plus Arsenal is the 8 Prem teams,
    10 penalties scored, seemed to remember him taking them for Newcastle, not sure who else.

    23 IS WRONG AND 10 IS WRONG

    I read that the reason he was dropped at Forest was that when they looked at the Opta stats after one game it turned out the keeper had run more than him.

    Thank god they don't have Opta at Sunday League level I'd be struggling!

    My next guess on penalties is 8!

    yeah bang on. When adamtheaddick, tongue in cheek it seems, says lets sign I quoted that stat.

    Anyone I'll put you out of your misery on the penalties.

    I gave a clue to WSS with the "brum are prominent with the penalty question" because incredibly he only scored 1 PENALTY in that 187 total.

    Mate who was at Arsenal at the time told me that he got sold by Arsenal after allegedly being caught going through peoples pockets in the changing room.

    Where's Jon 'Gaunty' Gaunt Gawn?

    He is suspended.

    On Friday he interviewed a councillor from Redbridge (I think) Council about their proposed new policy of not allowing smokers to foster children. The interview got quite heated and Gaunt called the councillor a nazi which he later moderated to health nazi.

    Following complaints from listeners Gaunt has been suspended.
