[Rubbish2407]

horseplayer and TightEnd go to battle in 5 minutes!

I think you should leave the clash of the Titans until last to wet everyone's appetite.

TightEnd 5 - 3 horseplayer

The clash of the top two players in the Quiz ended in undramatic fashion as TightEnd led from question 2 on his way to scoring the maximum whilst horseplayer laboured throughout and only managed to score 3. With horseplayer only scoring 10 points in Season Five many are asking whether horseplayer is gone at the game?

Longy 2 - 4 Rubbish2407

Two accomplished players went head to head in this tie and Rubbish2407, who was the slight favourite going in, came out on top with a neat 4 points and could afford to take his foot off the pedal and answer the picture question incorrectly. Longy can be happy with his run to the quarters.

Cup answers in.

Had two answers for Q1 so had to make a tough call of one over another. Won't say why I chose the one I did yet!

Q4 is horrible! 4 confident but then picking two from half a dozen.

OK. Fingers crossed. Magic of the cup etc

Hey horseplayer, even if your club was right for the stadium, it wasn't, I would have had to mark it wrong as asked for the stadium name. Rubbish2407 failed on that reasoning.

Wondered why I had that wrong, now I know why. Not quite as bad as thinking the Republic of Ireland was in the UK though.

dino1980 2 - 5 craigbetts

Although he is languishing in League One at the moment, craigbetts has been as high as the Premier League and he demonstated that ability in his quarter-final tie with dino1980. A clear, and impressive, 5-2 victory and he will be a threat to whoever he faces in the semi-finals.

[TightEnd]

craigbetts is the Sheffield United of the Quiz league

Likely to be back there one day, but most of the time has to make do with L1 football

Tal 3 - 1 sweet potata!

It was far from what you would call a high quality match but Premier League Tal did what he had to do to progress, scoring 3 out of 5. sweet potata! looks to be off form and must surely be a worry going into Season Six. Tal will need to up his game if he is to stand a chance in his semi-final.
