Any questions just @ me because the column becomes too long.

You have three matches to play in this section. Therefore three sets of questions to answer. One goal per question. Three points if you beat your opponent. One for a draw. If you are playing one of the byes you still need to get a question right for the three points, otherwise it's 0-0.

The questions are below. PM me your answers by Thursday lunchtime at the latest.

Match 1
1 In which year did David Beckham retire from professional football ?
2 Who scored England's opening goal at the 2000 Euros ?
3 Who was the English referee at the 2000 Euros ?
4 Who beat Crawley Town in the 5th round of the FA Cup in 2011 ?
5 How many non-league teams have reached the FA Cup quarter final since 1945 ?


Match 2

I don't ever recall asking who obscure teams played in the FIRST round of the FA Cup or indeed the results of pre-season friendlies.... I bet [MENTION=11720]kevo[/MENTION] must be 'avin a reet chortle now.

 

[Frutos]

Another perfectly pitched set of questions IMO.

Some I knew instinctively, some I could work out/make an educated guess and a couple were total stabs in the dark.

Great work [MENTION=29192]Brighton Lines[/MENTION]

Welcome to the GSP stadium in Nicosia!
Warning: our fans are rebels. They will let off flares and fireworks and will not be observing social distancing.
You may go home with something more than the three points.

When BL is playing, should his opponent answer the same questions or the original ones?

Good point that. I'm on a different scale to others here, whether for better or bad.

 

[Eeyore]

Okay. Small adjustments been made. But none that affects the overall tournament.

[MENTION=9822]KZNSeagull[/MENTION]* has been moved to Group 2. He is taking my place. The Group 2 fixtures above that include me are in fact fixtures against KZN.

KZN's place in Group 1 is now a 'bye' fixture. The groups have even numbers now and all with a single bye fixture for each player to ensure involvement in every round of questions.

I've withdrawn to make sure that everyone answers the same questions at all stages and to avoid extra admin work.

I'll still answer Taybha's questions above to show how crap I would have been anyway.

I knew that Spain were running scared facing the might of San Marino, but to have us move group is a bit much.

You now have to face Italy....
