Afternoon all! I've had a crack at making a daily football guessing game. Feel free to give it a go. Players refresh daily:

Would love to get any feedback on whether or not people enjoy the game 😀

Liked it - but could do with some more diverse clues. Clubs played for, goals scored, titles won, first goal, debut etc

I liked it, found it abit challenging as I didn’t know if it were just present players or former players too.

Maybe you could do a quiz section dedicated to Nicolas Jackson, I think Jim will love that

Question 1: Worst Football player - and human being - to ever play for Chelsea. .... I would get it in 1!

Agreed. Also for me it feels a bit too "database"/AI built game, lacking some sort of personality behind the clues. I'd love to see a clue that goes something like "Robbed a team of its best chance of a title in several years with a wonder goal during a heated derby", for example. (Eden against Spurs - but probably could find some other cases that fit so it's a little bit harder to solve).

Could also do with a shake-up on the clue's sequence. As it is it's always clue #1 about their youth club, 2# his technical prowess, 3# current club, 4# WC appearance and 5# initials.

Thanks for the feedback guys, will take it onboard. Fresh clues out today for those who want to test themselves!

Just did one, the first 4 questions were:

1. Started his career at the A**x youth team

2. Known for his intelligence and midfield ability

3. Won multiple titles with A**x

4. Won caps for the Netherlands national feam

There could be 100+ players, even after 4 questions. You need to be less vague, maybe include some dates or something.

Tricky batch today - only got 3/5 right!

Just gave this game another chance. Here were my clues:

1. Started his career at the A**x youth team

2. Known for his intelligence and technical abikity

3. Won the Eredivisie title with A**x

4. Won caps for the Netherlands national feam

Here's the 5th clue:

Your game's sh*te pal

Sounds like a couple of the clues need fact checking (still a work in progress).

The Footle game is fully fleshed out and easy to use - @Gordon Bennett might be a bit more your speed as no knowledge is required 😉

Pass, but I don't think it should be in the Chelsea section. Maybe move to the Football Forums (Non Chelsea) area ?

Very happy to host elsewhere (wasn't sure where the best spot for it was), not sure how you go about transferring to a different forum mind you 🤔
