Surely my answer of heaviest home defeat to Q7 must also be correct?

It was an away game...

I think 2-8 is the heaviest home defeat if we take out Norwich City in wartime.

Yes, perhaps I should have added the A140 to the roads. However, given that Ipswich Town are League One it's nul point :lolol:

Norwich City was the only plausible answer given the league restriction. I think around half got it.

As all my answers were all guesses, I'd thought I'd try it on.
Perhaps I could have a bye (AKA a [MENTION=11720]kevo[/MENTION]) in the next quiz round :lolol:

This is the last round of the season. Thankfully there is no re-election these days :whistle:

Woah - Garry Nelson's Left Foot relegated from Division One with 180 For points ! That's higher scoring than four of the six going up from Div 2.

So the NSC Summer Quiz League finishes with some close placings. The difference in standard meant that the top six merit players in Division Two all found themselves promoted, but Division One was less reasonable. 180 goals in Division One got one player relegated but would have got them third in the lower league (as it was hoped because it means the seedings were spot on). The points system, although perfect in the lower flight, will now be reviewed for next season to address some imbalances. Well, a little.Sometimes goals are onside and not given. Let's put it down to VAR. But that's the fun of it all.

Hans Kraay Fan Club wins his second league title to add to his inaugural win in the spring.

Well done all those who took part- especially those who played on even though it was a struggle to compete with the resident boffins.

The autumn league starts next month. Everyone will be asked to confirm their commitment to play just prior. Promotion and relegation is official as stands at present. If players drop out then some may retain current status in the top league if that is where the withdrawals occur.

So the NSC Summer Quiz League finishes with some close placings. The difference in standard meant that the top six merit players in the second division all found themselves promoted but the first division was less forgiving. 180 goals in division one got one player relegated but would have got them third in the lower league.

Congratulations to the league and cup winners, and big thanks again to Brighton Lines.

I'm actually a Lincolnshire Seagull supporter. You're my favourite player. You've never found it easy but you have always played and got your answers in on time.

My kind of team. Nice ground, friendly supporters and no delusions or whinges. I even had a team shirt designed in my mind. Weird how the brain works.

Very nice thank you. We are actually known as Lincolnshire Yellowbellies. We will be quite at home in div 2 next season.

Probably because Robin Hood wore Lincoln Green.

Thanks Brighton Lines. Promoted. Just wow. I knew I wasn't quite as dumb as The Euros quiz implied.
Mind you, some of my guesses were utterly inspired and based on no factual clue whatsoever, so I could easily do a Norwich next time around. But hey ho. I'll crack open a nice bottle of Asti Martini today to celebrate promotion (oh, and my recent birthday).
