Football Quiz Questions

[Glyn]

Just for fun - any football-related questions are welcome...

best if you can answer without googling, but that's entirely up to your conscience of course...

Easy one to start with - which football club plays at St James Park?

[Del]

Exter City! ... and NOT Newcastle United as many might think - they have an apostrophe in their name (trust Glyn to pick one like that!)

Ok- who plays at Twerton Park?

I won't cheat by looking at who's playing there now.... but when Bristol Rovers were groundsharing there [with Bath City, who I would assume still play there?] we went to watch Walsall there, lots of Wadworths 6X consumed en route by most of the Saddlers fans one of whom was so relaxed his pals were having to hold him up as he queued to go in... happy days...

[Del]

You correctly named them in your posting! (not Wadsworth 6X!)

[Glyn]

OK then... which football club's ground is in White Hart Lane?

[Del]

I sense a trick question here .... !!

Nice playing fields to play on though!!

Which three clubs have won all four senior leagues in English football (by whatever name they are currently or were then known)?

[Glyn]

I was hoping someone would answer that - I heard it on the radio and that Burnley and Wolves were two of the answers.... but someone will have to tell me who the third is!

Next question - NO GOOGLING! - which two players have played in most League Cup Finals - clue, it's 6 each, one played all 6 for one club and the other shared his between 3 clubs....

Emlyn Hughes?

[Dobba]

Well the 3 clubs one is definitely Emile Heskey with Leicester, Liverpool and Villa. 6 for one club implies it would probably be a Liverpool player. Ian Rush?
