Not a quiz show, but on talkSPORT this morning, Brazil doin a quiz Cascerino v Agbonlahor, “in snowdonia, what is the name of the highest mountain?”,
Agbonlahor “mmmmmmmm, Swansea???”
Cascarino “ mmmm Mount Blanc?”….
Cascarino is an unusual guy. Made a great career from what I consider average footballing ability. Played with top teams like Chelsea, Marseilles, Celtic and Belgrade.
Is on several radio shows as a pundit and has made a load of money as a professional poker player.
I wonder is he a bit like Roy Keane, appearing to be a bit dopey but having a business brain behind it all.

Cascarino. When I was at Uni I worked part time in an expensive clothes shop. One day in pops the bold Tony. I served him and he bought a Boss suit. We got talking football, I told him.I was a Celtic fan and he asked how I thought he was doing.
Not good enough, you're here to score goals and you aren't doing that.
You should have seen his wee face.
My boss wasn't too happy, as the atmosphere at the till went somewhat south.
After no goals left, my boss said, why the fuck did you say that?
Because its fucking true, he's a carthorse and a complete waste of money. **** shouldn't ask if he cant handle the answer.
He shook his head and walked away. He was a prick too.
It was around about that time I realised a career in the Diplomatic Corps was perhaps not for me.
