Which match am I? (Let's play a game!)

[MomoWASright]

It's not a Hodgson match at all.

Answer 2 questions and you should get it. What would've been utopia? When did that happen at Xmas?

Mane. Last minute. Merry Christmas, Everton.

 

[peterhague]

Yep

 

[SummerOnions]

I find it funny we're all so scarred about the Hodgson years you said dystopia and we all went there. Good clue!

@momoWASboss you're up!

It was Wednesday. Under the lights. He danced. We cheered. A star was born.

Suarez debut against Stoke in 2011 where he came on as a sub and we won 2-1?

 

[MomoWASright]

Nope.

I do remember that game. Suarez looked slow as fuck but you could just tell. He had just missed 2 months of football though so it was understandable.

 

[peterhague]

I don't think this really fits with the star is born bit, but Sturridge scoring twice against Everton in the 4-0?

 

[MomoWASright]

Nope.

 

[RedStar]

Fowlers debut away to Fulham in the lashing rain. He scored 1 and we won 3-1 I think...

No. You’ve gone too far back.

 

[peterhague]

Fowler scoring 5 in the return? 5-0 vs Fulham.

 

[MomoWASright]

Nope.

 

[peterhague]

Torres scoring a couple vs Reading in the league cup. Think it was 3 nil

 

[MomoWASright]

No.

I think you’re all missing a massive clue in the post.

 

[peterhague]

Well I'm snookered.

 

[tombrown]

It was that League Cup match under Souness, against Chesterfield (I think), we were losing at half time then Istvan Kosma came on & turned the match around.

 

[MomoWASright]

Incorrect.

I’ve provided the name of the opposition.

The imitation shone like the real thing, enough to fool the elderly woman who thought she owned the place.

Garcia and Sami vs Juve.

2-0?

Garcia and Sami vs Juve.

2-0?

Yeah... I knew I'd made that too easy

Although it was 2-1. Carson

Roy's lads couldn't handle Ron's love.

 

[tombrown]

Ron Atkinson came out of retirement to bugger Joke Hole, Poulsen and Konchesky senseless

 

[RedStar]

Roy's lads couldn't handle Ron's love.

Im assuming this is a referenece to Roy Evans and Ron Atkinson as Ronaldo had left for Madrid before Hodgsons brief disastrous stint. Who was he managing in the mid 90s? Villa, Coventry?

We regularly lost to very average teams at that time so its probably Coverlntry but cant think of any memorable gamed against them

 

[SummerOnions]

I can't remember much of that era but I remember John Hartson absolutely doing bits over our defense some time in the 90s for Coventry. Was Atkinson in charge of them then?

 

[Bradley]

It was Coventry, 'Big Ron' was managing them but there's one big clue left. The game was at Anfield.

 

[peterhague]

Was it Peter Ndlovu who scored a couple? Wanna say 2-1

Remember when he did it for Celtic too?
