Sunday quiz

[Van der Gully]

Ok folks,

Time to exercise the old grey matter on a Sunday afternoon with a little quiz question.

What do Brighton, Bournemouth and Oxford in England and Clyde in Scotland all have in common.

Shouldn't take you too long to work this out, then we will have to come up with something more difficult.

 

[Trigger]

All play at grounds that dont have 4 sides?

 

[Van der Gully]

Well done, absolutely correct.

 

[DTES]

No next question? Not a very big quiz.

 

[Van der Gully]

Sorry Hants, I was busy, now I have started doing major damage to a nice bottle of South African wine so I think that is the end of the Sunday quiz.

If there is anyone else who thinks they can do better than I did, and it won't be too difficult, then step forwards now....

I'm going to make mine as easy as yours!

Who is the oldest football team in the country? And who is the 2nd?

 

[Rougvie]

Notts County the Oldest ?
Not sure on second, Preston maybe ?

 

[Van der Gully]

Notts County are the oldest, think Sheffield United might be second.

 

[BrightonBird]

Notts County correct. And I am 90% sure the 2nd is Stoke. Can anyone back me up?

 

[Van der Gully]

When it said on the news that they were the oldest I was wondering how long Notts County had to wait for another team to form so that they could play someone.

 

[Scotty Mac]

havent a clue!

Yes I wondered that too.

I suspect the clue is that they are the old PROFESSIONAL club. I'm sure there were plenty of amateur teams for them to play. Including nearby Loughborough Town maybe. Don't know when they were formed, but I believe they still hold the record for inflicting the Arse's record defeat. Can anyone confirm this? I can't be bothered to Google...
