Edit

Correct answer below is Bobby Moore in 64, 65 and 66

Several other good questions below if you're bored

Mel Blyth?

Norwich boy. But not him.

This guy I think was born in Dereham and was a cult figure at his London club.

No more clues :classic_smile:

Tony Adams.

I didn't go for 3 successive seasons.

I thought Adams did the League Cup and FA Cup & then the Charity Shield in the next season.

That’s the one.

I never realised he was a Norfolk boy when watching him all those years ago. He’d have played at Millwall with Barry Bridges. Perhaps they were known as the Norfolk Dockers :classic_smile:

Moore

FA Cup 

Cup Winners Cup

World Cup 

Couldn't remember where the Cup Winners Final was played and didn't want to Google cheat, but promise to be more cryptic next time if I think I've got the answer early. Nobody likes a smartar*e and anyway it spoils it for others! Checked on myself afterwards and stumbled on facts for a real ba*tard of a question:

Who was the first senior player since Geoff Hurst to score a hat-trick at Wembley?

One or two clues (which quizzers may like to ignore at first): He's Scottish, had been signed by a big London club from a little Northern club to the absolute fury of the fans there (it happens to other clubs too). Said little club is now non-League and working its way back. He scored the hat-trick for the London club.

I had to Google this and I'd forgotten all about him. He was a nasty piece of work and according to Wikipedia he played for 19 clubs!
