I’ve spent THREE HOURS on these answers this morning, and am now rather less bullish about them than I was initially.

Very happy with my answers to two of them, but a couple are significantly trickier, and the 1978 World Cup one is going to have a LOT of guesses!

That trophy is one of my most treasured possessions ,it was the year before i had my accident ruling out any other trophies which includes lobbing a ball at somebody at 33.2 mph (wind assisted ) , when i dust it , the memories flood back , good times indeed .

P.S i bet Luke will still win it :lolol:

NSC Quiz Cup Final 2020

[MENTION=27836]Barham's tash[/MENTION] 3 [MENTION=12422]Taybha[/MENTION] 3

Capture 53.PNG

Notes

One point each awarded as the players went either side of the first League Cup Final with 1960 and 1962.

Taybha named 13 of the 15 winners, Barham's Tash named 12. All 15 winners were named between you.

So you cannot even be separated on aggregate scores. They are 15-15.

So it goes to a replay.

The replay will be a single multi answer question with an added tie breaker.

To follow.

NSC Quiz Cup FInal replay questions:

1) Nine teams since the war have appeared in an FA Cup final (at least once) and failed to win. Name them, (9 guesses only)

2) What was the first post war year in which a team who has never won the FA Cup before or since made an appearance in the final ? (This question will only be used as a tie-breaker- nearest answer wins)

I can see this going the way of one of your earlier questions, involving replays ???

Answers IN, after fully FIVE hours of deliberation.

Yes, I realise how sad that is.

That was about four replays. Think I'm running out of questions.

Just to remind [MENTION=27836]Barham's tash[/MENTION] and [MENTION=34973]Lindfield23[/MENTION] that the aim is to publish the winners tomorrow night.

So you can take your time if need be. By 7pm would be good.

The NSC Quiz Cup Final Replay

The question itself was poorly worded. I put this down to a brain that has been finally finally frazzled by thinking of questions and checking answers.

It should have read 'Name nine of the teams since the war have appeared in an FA Cup final (at least once) and failed to win.

This has been referred to VAR and the original decision stands as there was no clear and obvious error in a player's ability to come up with correct answers.

The result

[MENTION=27836]Barham's tash[/MENTION] 9 [MENTION=12422]Taybha[/MENTION] 7

Answers:

Leicester City
Birmingham City
Crystal Palace
Watford
Luton Town
Fulham
Queens Park Rangers
Brighton & Hove Albion
Middlesbrough
Millwall
Stoke City
Hull City

Congratulations- to Barham's Tash
