Just for the avoidance of any doubt from people reading this, that one wasn't me.

Some tough ones there for sure. Hmmm

 

[Eeyore]

Some tough ones there for sure. Hmmm

Yeah. Quality teams in Quarter Finals !

 

[Super Steve Earle]

In response to the question about the who wears the number 8 shirt at Brighton, one response read 'Peter Ward'.

That wasn't me. But still incredulous that I picked up Brighton Lines' thought process about Estonia and the Flora League. I honestly had no idea when I placed my guess!

 

[Eeyore]

The Merit League has been expanded to include every team that decided to continue in the competition. Just makes sense rather than adding figures that are already known once a team goes out. So here it is. Highlighted teams are still in the knockout stages.

 

[Pickles]

Blimey, I'm Germany, and pretty close to the bottom.

I need some penalties here........

Well done, Brighton Lines, great fun, matey!

Keep going ! If we decide to start running a quiz league from August, say three monthly (promotion & relegation etc), your final ranking in this competition will determine which division you enter.

Matey, love what you've done, and are doing.

It's been enjoyable, perfect for my nerdiness. I won't be doing the Mike Dean cards again though. As fun as they were, it was such a pain to administrate. Only myself to blame for that one.

When you started it, I did think that rod and back came to mind.

However, as everyone has said, it's great fun, and we all can see what you've put into this.

Cheers matey!

any chance of a quiz for the oldies,say 60s/70s/80s

 

[Eeyore]

I think if leagues did take off there would have to be those sort of questions included with opportunities for educated guessing.

Or maybe we should have segregated lower divisions. Third Division Young and Third Division Old.

Only some might lie about their age.

Enjoy the merit league old son

You certainly wouldn't make a MERIT LEAGUE of QUIZMASTERS.

Pablo Asensio was sacked as manager of Hawks over two years ago. Jude is still manager.

Between 1977 & 1984 English teams won 7 European cups alone. What about UEFA Cups (Ipswich Town & Tottenham Hotspur) ? You said trophies.

When we hopefully play cricket together soon I'm not letting you anywhere near the SCOREBOOK.
