I was at a loss about what to write this week. After suffering sub-zero temperatures at our home game v QPR and trying to educate friends about all things West Ham, I thought it could be fun to write a little West Ham quiz for the site. So here goes:
Forever West Ham is now on Google+, so be sure to find us on there by quite simply (and rather unsurprisingly) searching ‘Forever West Ham’
1. Who was West Ham’s first signing to cost more than £1million?
2. Who, on returning to West Ham for a second time, is the only player to be our record signing twice?
3. Who was the last player to score a hat-trick for The Hammers in an FA Cup tie?
4. When West Ham beat Watford 4-0 at Vicarage Road last season, who were the four different scorers?
5. Which player signed for West Ham from Bournemouth in the nineties for £100k and appeared in ‘EastEnders’ and ‘Mike Bassett: England Manager’ once his career ended.
Are you on Facebook? Excellent, so are we http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/ForeverWestHamcom/200938616608282
6. Which 2000 signing won the Silver Ball at the 1998 World Cup
7. In the 1999 Intertoto Cup, who were West Ham’s first opponents?
8. Against whom was West Ham’s record FA Cup win?
9. When Tony Cottee came back to the club, which player left as part of the deal?
10. Who, with his final touch in a West Ham shirt, scored in the final game of the 1989/90 season?
And there’s my quiz! Hope it’s fun and testing. Please don’t use the internet if possible and I’ll post a less lazy piece in the coming days.
As an aside I’d like to apologise to anyone who was in earshot of me at the QPR game when I went on a huge, expletive-heavy, rant at Kevin Nolan
Keep safe
