No idea what player is coffee milk.

He is the odd one out ..... played in the 1970's but not in the 100 greats, about 30 appearances, regular for one season

Peter Creamer.

Couldn t resist translating his name!

10 down

Since I live in Belgium where we use both French and Flemish I won't spoil the fun . Good luck everyone.

My trips to Amsterdam were not that 'hazy' after all. I believe Gezond, means to be fine, in good health or well. So id say 3. could possibly be Richie Wellens?

Correct on the language and rationale, but wrong player BRMC. There is a player some time ago who is a direct translation

15 B Usher?

BRMC_rover · « *Last Edit: July 08, 2015, 02:25:38 pm by BRMC_rover* »

My work colleague informs me that 4. ingesneeuwd, is 'Snowboard', so I will guess at one of the Snodins?

Appreciate it sounds little like the direct translation, but as we know, depending on the context, they can be used as other adjectives depending on the statement being made.

Correct IB.

Do you speak some french, or does spanish or portuguese help?

ROVERSBELLY · « **Reply #46 on** July 08, 2015, 02:25:34 pm by ROVERSBELLY »

Is No 4 Snodin , believe Ingesneeuwd has something to do with being Snowed In ?

Correct player (I have chosen Glyn as I needed a defender)

I think the Dutch just say Snowboard using the english term. Gesneeuwd is the past participle of sneeuwen - to snow. So 'ingesneeuwd' is 'snowed-in'

Edit: Roversbelly has beaten me to it.

Dutch Uncle · « **Reply #48 on** July 08, 2015, 02:30:09 pm by Dutch Uncle »

Draaistier, Gezond, Kraam, Kudde, Pauw, Slim, Vijfling and assistant Brakgat to go.

Excellent Swints, I have Ross as I needed another keeper after Dennis

'Draaien' is to 'turn'

If this was Steve Maclaren's quiz, he would have gone for 'Sharlie Williamsh' and Shteve Shtaunton

Afraid not Filo. Slim in Dutch has nothing to do with size or weight.

As Gat means hole in Afrikaans, I'll guess Brakgat is Beaglehole.

Excellent TRB

Brak is simply a beagle.
