Re: Rules???

Bagpuss, this is nonsense. Gerry says someone is famous in Australia because she went to school with him....I'm sorry, I don't see the logic of this argument. These guys are famous on your criteria on the basis that a) they play(ed) football and b) they're from Accy, so they're invariably known by someone.

If you want to stick footy players in here, then surely the basis should be either a) they've been capped for England or b) they have some unique contribution to the game...while no doubt Brett Ormerod is a good premiership player, dos he have an England cap? No.......I vaguely recall that Mike Duxbury picked up a few....but I can't be certain, you see, because he was'nt reallly...famous!
