Footie Trivia Question of the Week
It's been a good week for U.S. soccer. First, Becks announces he's coming to L.A. Then Clint Dempsey makes an impressive debut for Fulham and finally the U.S. national team put up a decent 3-1 win against Denmark. With that in mind, who was the U.S. international who played in the inaugural season of the Premiership and scored in that year's F.A. Cup Final - the first to score at Wembley? Who was he playing for and who were the opponents on the day? Bonus points for the score.Good luck, lads!

John Harkes scored for Sheffield Wednesday against Arsenal in the League Cup Final. They lost 2-1( I think)
They also lost to The Arse in that year's FA Cup Final after a replay. I don't think Harkes scored in either game.
Am I right?
Absolutely correct, sir! Since you nailed that one so quickly, here's another:
Who was the first manager ever sacked in the Premiership and what club did he manage. (Hint - he broke Leeds hearts in 1973).
Ian Porterfield from Chelsea
Blimey! You took your gingko biloba this morning, dintcha? Well done, mate!
Your clue was a dead give away.
Only for someone who knows his footie as you do!
