Yes the 92 club exists


It is much more difficult these days with new grounds and 2 up 2 down from the conference but once you are in you are in but the real anoraks have to visit the new grounds to believe they still qualify


Yes I have to do the Emirates this season.


Amongst the grounds I have yet to do are Torquay, Carlisle, Darlington (new ground), Hull (new ground), Accrington (just up) to give a few examples....a bit of travelling to do



no, not Nick Barmby....tottenham, liverpool but not a manchester side or Sunderland/newcastle...


the North east derby does not include Middlesboro


Keep thinking

mainly they are lower league remote type towns where leicester have never played...and new grounds!

This one's for Tightend

Which side at one time had seven past, present and future England captains in the same team, and in which year?

How you getting on with this one Tightend

struggling more than I should be.


Resisting the temptation to get the reference books out and cheat


I thought about 1970s Liverpool teams and got as far as Clememnce, Neal, Hughes, Thompson and Keegan but got stuck at 5. You need 7!

Which is the only English league football ground to have a pub on every corner?

Tightend must know this one.


Brentford!  Griffin Park to be precise!



Following on from the last question...here is a variant...who is the only person since 1980 to have played and scored in each of the following?

North London Derby
Manchester Derby
Liverpool Derby
North East Derby


He got around, this boy....

Paul Stewart

yup.


Name all the football league clubs who's name does not reflect the town (or district of that city eg Chelsea) they play in....eg Queens Park Rangers...play in Shepherds Bush now not Queens Park in NW London

Leyton Orient play in Leyton, district of London. Curiously there is also a Leyton FC in the Ryman League, a Leighton Town (Leighton Buzzard) in the Ryman League and a non league football club in Leytonstone


Rushden are no longer a league team and play in Irthlingbrough. They were the amalgamation of Rushden town and Irthlingborough Diamonds when Max Griggs arrived


So, no...!

Could be a good one in Scotland as well.... but I think you'd have to narrow it down to teams with place names (ie Celtic, Rangers, St Mirren etc don't have place town/city names at all.....)

Partick Thistle are based in Maryhill, not Partick.Queens Park (the original ones) play near Queens Park, but I don't think it's the area they play in. Clyde don't play near the Clyde anymore.... Other Scots fans needed to complete this one though
