    Mo Sayer? Leo Salah?

    Just when you thought that football statues couldn't get any worse...

    #2
    I think we need a moratorium on statues, partiuclarly football ones.

    I mean it's pretty straightforward to scan somebody's head nowadays.

        It's a bronzed Corinthians figure

          It's so funny. Why do people get the sculptor equivalent of that Spanish Fresco restorer to make football statues?

            You're onto something there. They weren't exactly likenesses you could use in a court of law either.

              That'd be a good quiz actually--match the Corinthian head to the player (without being able to see the shirt).

                  Here you go, something to chew over with your lunch. Should be easier once you get the theme.

                    #3 is 100% 'Bryan C*nting F*cking W*nkshot Ferry' - as he was once memorably re-christened on these pages.

                    #5 - Tony Blair?

                    (The theme then being 'political traitors'?)

                      As I imagined, I'm struggling with this. I think #7 is Theo Walcott. Is #4 Paul McGrath?

                        #7 is white...

                        Yes to McGrath.

                          6 is Roy Keane

                              So 9 is likely Robbie

                                Correct. Seven more Irish internationalists to identify.

                                  Although #3 looks nothing like him, the only Ireland player with a side-parting I can think of is Ray Houghton.

                                    Afraid it's not Ray. He was on the pitch when 'that goal' went in though.

                                        3 is Lawrie Sanchez (in spite of him not being on the same team as Ray Houghton when 'that goal' went in obvs)

                                          Afraid not - this round is RoI only, too.

                                          Meanwhile, though, here's a couple of handfuls of Scotland players to identify:

                                            And, believe it or not, number 5 is not Charlie Adam.

                                                7 is John O'Shea?

                                                  Is the ROI no. 2 the Liverpool left back whose name escapes me?
