Catch me catch me (if you can)

Are you Nigel Adkins in disguise?

So this is the reason for PMs pedantics.

He's after your WHINGERS Trophy.

Wow, I’m surprised (but pleased) mine was the only full house. The only one I wasn’t sure about was the Stevenage question, mainly because answering Luton to two questions in a row seemed strange.

Yes. 10 was achievable for sure. I only fell short, because I misread the last question (so answered for FA Cup QFs) and because I have a longstanding weird mental block that means I invariably muddle up Valencia and Sevilla...

Spain has won 9 UEFA Cups this century but only 2 in the 29 years prior. I think it's 6/7 in the last 11.

The questions are early as there is more marking this week.

It's cup week too. See #145.

You have twelve questions to answer. You must answer the tie-break question also, although it does not count towards the league and only counts in the cup if you are tied with your opponent. In the case of the tie-beak the nearest answer wins.

Deadline day is next Thursday, but early entrants are appreciated and it's good not to have to chase....

that Peterborough one is the toughest one of that genre so far....I reckon its not far from being equidistant to about 4 teams!

I can only think of two. I'm not 100% confident on either being that close to Peterborough but at least it reduces my options! A one in two chance is better than a one in four, right...?

There's going to be a lot of guesses this round(from me). I only know one answer for sure. Another half dozen I'm confident on but not 100%, the rest are a mix of educated guesses and stabs in the dark.

Ouch seems a lot harder than last week. Although train travelers will be pleased.

3 in my reckoning and distance very close between them, going with my first thought, lived in Wisbech for a while so know the area but still a guess.

 

[happypig]

This makes me realise how little football knowledge I have.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Good set of questions, some will only be good for those who have travelled away, a few very close calls. Well done BL

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I know two of those answers for absolute maybe, I can feel my brain cells trickling from my ears on the rest

Question
How can I bookmark this thread on NSC so as to easily find it again?

 

[Jeremiah]

Ohh. After checking my answers and looking at my Cup draw (playing top of Division One) I have decided to concentrate on the league this season
