There's an ad running on commercial radio at the moment (I neither know nor care who or what it's for) which poses the question:

"Name the 13 teams in the top four divisions of the English football pyramid which have the letters "ton" in their name"

No point googling or checking league tables or it spoils it , I can only get 12

I'll give you Wolves for starters...

Ah, I've got the 13th now. The first one I thought of, (and those of you who know my football allegiances will know who that is...), I forgot to write it down...

Listeners to Five Live need not reply - though I daresay they've done this on Sky as well now.... and NO GOOGLING!

If Iceland win through their World Cup Play-off they will be the smallest (in population terms) country ever to play in a World Cup Finals Tournament

a) What's the population?

b) Which is currently the smallest country?

Good one just on talkSPORT

Name the five managers (and the clubs in question) who have had two separate spells in charge of Premier League clubs (don't forget, football didn't start until 1993)

Why do Leamington run a bus leaving the town centre at 1540, arriving at 1556?

Is that just for people who've got a second-half-season-ticket?

In that case, Denis Law for Scotland, Manchester United and for a Rest of the World XI, with the goalkeeper being Gordon Banks.

Quiz Question: why did Newcastle change to that rather intriguing/amazing/disgusting away kit at Stoke when they didn't at Southampton? That in itself is enough reason for Ashley and Pardew both to quit!

Thierry Henry has retired. In which game did he score his first Arsenal goal?

And which Hednesford legend came on as sub for the opposition?


If you don't want to know the answer, look away now ....
