    All dyed their hair the same colour for a tournament.

    I don't actually know if the Japanese have done this.

    They have not.

    First clue: it's an unwanted achievement.

    Many other nations have had this happen.

    Someone probably did it in the Euros, but Japan have never done that.

    Done famously by England in 1970, among others.

    I'm trying to think what potentially links them and I can't get past them both being allied with Germany during WW2. I am assuming that's nothing to do with it?

    I can remember Australia doing this, among others.

    Second clue: Romania did it a long time before Japan did it.

    I have the Quickly Kevin podcast to thank for that. A few weeks ago they were talking about links between players from different areas that played with each other, so I instantly thought that might be the connection.

    Tommy Smith played at Liverpool with Steve Ogrizovic
    Who played at Coventry with Robbie Keane
    Who played at Villa with Marc Albrighton

    Yep, I thought if Wullie is scorched-earthing the whole thing then the only way to repel him is to make a question about Steve Ogrizovic or Marcus Hall.

    Austria / Southampton
    Jamaica / West Brom
    Uruguay / Sunderland
    Denmark / Swansea City

    You are correct. I haven't got a picture on my phone but imagine if you will the poise and the posture of Mario Stanic.

    Sorry, should have said. Each country / club pairing represents the only manager from that country to have worked in the Premier League and the club they managed (I didn't include Avram Grant or Pellegrini who have had multiple clubs).

    Christian Gross should've unlocked the door there, but I spent 25 minutes thinking about left backs because of Reto fucking Ziegler.
