Is it something to do with ships/cruises?

No. Concentrate on Jackie and NE England and Belfast should then fall into place.

Jackie Milburn?

I think this is first time Always no. 1 has posted here. Maybe she's not aware that the successful one posts the next question which must relate to the previous question or answer, that is the one she has just answered. Can I suggest that she get 24 hours to post a question, and failing that someone else might do so,

The person who posted the original question took 5 days to come back to me to confirm I was correct. I read the charter before I joined the thread but wasn't aware there was a deadline involved...

Anyway, Newcastle United have had 10 managers in their existence - 7 English men and 1 Irish man. Name either of the Scottish men that managed them.

Point taken. Just that it has happened here in the past that a neophyte has come in and having answered correctly didn't realise it was their turn to post.
Regarding your question I haven't a bloody clue.

Andy Cunningham?

Sorry I delayed but I did not have Internet access for 5 days and I wasn't in Leitrim.

Ok my apologies to Brussel Sprouts (you were correct btw) and Piuswal (you were aweo correct) I made an arse of the question (had an eye on Love Hate at the time) I'll ask a different one instead.

Name an Irish man who went from the blues to the reds but loved scoring against a team in red? Will check in tomorrow morning. Apologies again for mix up.

How do you judge 'loves scring against.. red'? Wayne Rooney?

Not Wayne Rooney. Loves scoring goals against a particular team that wears red.

Hint - the Blues relate to Jackie above and not toffee

gufc21 wrote: »

so wayne rooney doesn't love scoring against Liverpool?

I'm sure he does but it's not him

So its a question with no definitive answer.. Imagine that being the one question that caused you to lose a quiz?
