[Football] NSC Football Quiz League

[Lincolnshire Seagull]

Despite my abysmal performance so far (which is likely to continue, judging by The Complete Badger's confidence), I am really enjoying this competition. Big thanks to Brighton Lines for organising it.

Apologies, you may have caught me on a good day. Whoever gets me next will no doubt find me back in the form of failing to recall last season’s PL top scorer and who England played in the last qualifying group.

Absolutely agree with you on the quality of the quiz so far. It’s been a great mix of things I know, things I can guess and things I haven’t got a clue about. Quizzes are always rubbish when they’re either too hard or too easy. This is spot on. I’m just hoping [MENTION=29192]Brighton Lines[/MENTION] has got the trivia and stamina for nine more great rounds.

It's kind of you to say. After the first round I realised that those of us of a certain age have an advantage. So the plan for questions that are dated is to make them ones that most should know regardless of age (everyone got Portugal 1966) or very, very hard but guessable- with nearest answer options if they are ones that no-one is likely to know if they didn't look up (which I'm happy that no-one is doing).

I have to echo the words of my fellow players - this has been brilliant so far, and I think the difficulty has been pitched perfectly. Hard enough to make you think, but not so hard as to be impossible.

Thanks for all your efforts [MENTION=29192]Brighton Lines[/MENTION]. [emoji106]

Ah, yes, and I was doing so well.... I think your match has been selected for broadcasting. So get your best bib and tucker on.

Hmm tricky mid-Sussex away day. Think this might call for new wax for the tash. Stiff upper lip and all that.

Great stuff [MENTION=29192]Brighton Lines[/MENTION]!

I'm taking part in this as a fan, someone the league often forgets about.

♫♪♫ I love you [MENTION=28934]AmexRuislip[/MENTION], ♫♪♫
♫♪♫ I love you [MENTION=28934]AmexRuislip[/MENTION], ♫♪♫
♫♪♫ I love you [MENTION=28934]AmexRuislip[/MENTION]. ♫♪♫
♪♫♪ Oh, [MENTION=28934]AmexRuislip[/MENTION] I love you. ♪♫♪

I can stand the despair; it's the hope that kills me.

Maybe we should have team colours and scarves. Mustn't forget our CUSTOMERS. I like AR too, but alas can do him no favours.

 

[Frutos]

Straight in, took me two minutes, and I believe I’m in the running for 5/5. It’s only the top scorer I’m slightly in two minds about.

I'm not convinced I've got the top scorer one right, but I'm pretty confident with the other four.

Oh dear

Anyone know the 'played for 4 PL winning sides but never won the PL himself'?

Asking for a friend.......

Many thanks

Point of clarity on:

4 Conor Hourihane had the most assists that season. Who did he play for ?

Who did he play for should really have asked specifically for both teams. As it didn't, either or both will score a goal for that question.

We finally have a MAXIMUM from someone in this round (in fact TWO). One person will be pissed off that 4 goals wasn't enough for a point...

Three entries to come.

One of which is me

I’m sure of 4, and agonising over the top scorer.

Glad you clarified the Hourihane one. Was wondering!

Still gutted I didn't score 5 in round 2! I knew the answer I got wrong, just accidentally typed in the wrong thing by mistake! I blame lockdown boozing.
