Mark Viduka: "I wouldn't mind if we lost every game as long as we won the league"
Ian Rush: "Playing for Juventus was like being in a foreign country!

Thirteen suffixes (e.g. "Rovers") to team names are each used by only one club in the four English divisions. A point for each.

[Ken4155]

Ich; which is why I phrased my question that way. If I had said non-league included, it would have suggested (rightly) that one of the 5 was a non-league side.

[Bazile]

Which ex-player has 'red' in his name and lives on the sands ?

[Denton]

Redknapp

[Ken4155]

NJ; Crewe Alexandra, MK Dons, Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace, Aston Villa, Sheff Wednesday, Nottingham Forest, Forest Green, Queens Park Rangers, Accy Stanley, Plymouth Argyle, Port Vale and Leyton Orient. ??

[Llanfair]

Ken, but by including non-league, how far down the non-league pyramid would you go? Solihull Moors is just another example, and I am sure there would be others?

[BAKERS DOZEN]

For Tora - Killer Shark and the third one starts off with KwikSave but I can't remember the rest. What has this got to do with football though?

[Bazile]

Denton
Yeah that was easy wasn't it - i meant to say - has a colour in his name and lives on the sands

Would you have got it then ?

[Ken4155]

Perhaps the question could be modified and limited to just the top 4 English Leagues. When I was asked the question, i'm sure York City were in the football league proper. That's how long it is since I attended a pub quiz:-/

[Denton]

Possibly,Bazile

[Llanfair]

Ken, totally agree. One of the few away grounds I have been to is Bootham Crescent for a football league game, though a little while ago now. Still a good question even without York. :)

BD 1645 ask TCL he spoilt the joke.

[THECORBYLOON]

How did I spoil the joke? I didn't explain why it was Kilmarnock did I?

What's the connexion with football anyway?

Actually there are fourteen, Ken. I missed out Forest Green (can't keep up with the comings and goings in the lower divisions) and you missed out Preston North End.

[Ken4155]

So I did :-(

[Denton]

It's Forest Green Rovers.

Which player made his Champions League debut for his club in the final itself?

Ryan Bertrand, Chelsea 2012

[ChillDoubt]

.....and that famous old chestnut:
What is always taken to the FA Cup Final but never used?(bit of a trick question)


Answer:
The losers ribbons(that won’t be tied to the handles).

"Ich; which is why I phrased my question that way. If I had said non-league included, it would have suggested (rightly) that one of the 5 was a non-league side. "

You do need a way of limiting it, because I haven't checked (!) but there must be others all the way down to the county leagues
