I have no idea, but will guess Robbie Fowler and Stan Collymore.

Good guess, but not right. I'll try and narrow it down a bit each time someone has a guess. Neither of the players played for Liverpool.

I'll try another one...

Ledley King's record for fastest ever premier league goal was finally broken by Shane Long, but who held the record before Ledley? It was held jointly by two players. I'll accept either as the right answer.

90's...… Goalscorers from that time most obvious to go for...… Not Liverpool I see..... Someone like an Andy Cole or Shearer?

Though I guess just as likely to have been someone who has smashed one home from range ?‍

You really couldn't be much closer with those guesses.

Dwight Yorke and Chris Sutton?

They'd both scored in 13 seconds.

Who was the first goalkeeper to score a goal in the Premier League, and which club was he playing for?

Dave Beasant? I think he scored one. Not sure who he would've been playing for - Wimbledon?

That was pre-PL era if so.

I can remember both Schmeichel and Freidel scoring before Robbo got his.

Not sure if any before that though

You're on the right path. Which one and which club?

 

[nailsy]

Apparently he didn't score any goals. Probably getting mixed up with his cup final save or something.

@mpickard2087 This is your chance to swoop in with an answer...

 

[Trotter]

Schmeichel, and believe for Villa. Think he previously scored for United (an overhead kick) but was disallowed for offside

Schmeichel for Villa is a classic case of "I did not remember he played there", but also the correct answer.

Again though I have no questions to give, so can somebody step in

Which football team does @MK Yid support?

AFC Gooners?!

That was meant to be an easy question to give someone else a chance of posting one. He's obviously a Tottenham fan.

Let's try this - Who was the first ever Premier League Manager to be sacked?

Ian Porterfield at Chelsea
