I remember when Burnley's subs bench consisted of Micah Hyde, Paul Scott, Daniel Coyne, Matthew O'Neill, and Joel Pilkington. Four men with books of the Bible named after them (or vice versa) plus one who wrote more of the books than anyone else.

And re football teams mentioned in the bible, surely the Saints are mentioned at some point?

[LeadBelly]

I cant see that anybody has nominated (Ian) St John yet.

The joke from about 50 years ago was re a defaced Liverpool church billboard reading "Jesus Saves" which had graffiti added "and St John scores from the rebound".

Ah, but " the Saints " is just a nickname. I don't think you'll find a reference to Southampton in the Bible. Similarly, I imagine " hearts " appears in the Bible, but not Heart of Midlothian.

Queen of the South is in the Bible, if that helps.

And Southampton were originally called St Mary's, and St. Mary is certainly there.

[Taffy on the wing]

I got bored when trying to sleep one night.

Nick Pope
Charlie Bishop
Simon Church
Owen Archdeacon
Gabriel Jesus
Ian St John
Ivor Allchurch
Dixie Dean
Baptiste SantaMaria

I had to cheat and search for the last two
Dickie Deacon and
Giovanni Rector

I thought that St Pauli would be the ideal club.

Can anyone come up with a non-Christian eleven to play against them (or even a satanic team??)

The Scientologists are looking for people just like you!.........Do you ever find yourself flicking through old Railway time-tables just for pleasure?
