There aren't many left it could be!
I'll give you a clue!
They're expected to do quite well, but their league isn't very good, hence all their players play abroad.

i'm going to guess that the Cardinal is beng sly so Serbia & montenegro since a country which is no longer legally recognised as such cannot have a league? are there any straws left?
nobody ever wins on those things.

Nope and nope.
Right. I think it's about time I put this question to bed (what a wanky phrase that is)...
I'll phrase it as a cryptic crossword clue:
Q: Nellie's seaside retreat?

Ok sorry for the delay.
My question to you is this...
Who was the first substitute to be made in the Premiership League?

ah good one.
brian deane is quite often the answer to things like this so that's my guess

Its a fair guess but wrong.
Brian Deane was the first player to score a goal in the premiership in the Sheffield United vs Man Utd game.

Ergo, the first sub must have been made in that game...
I'll guess Beckham (must have been about 17 in 1992)

It wasnt beckham. Also it wasnt in that game that this substitution happened. Its an ex-England player that had to leave the field of play.
