Hull City is the only league team where you can't colour in any of the letters of their name.

The first FA Cup fixture played on a Sunday was in January 1974.

It was Cambridge United v Oldham Athletic (and I was there).

As I recall admission was free, but you had to buy a programme. The programme was priced at the usual price plus the usual admission fee.

There are 2 clubs in Europe that won the EC1/CL but do not play on the highest club level in their country.

Which are they?

I'm sure everyone would get Nottingham Forest. Unless they've read results around Europe today I think they'll struggle to name the second.

That's a good hint.

And indeed Nothingham Forest is the obvious one.

SV Hamburger.....and are still in Bundesliga 2 after being beaten by Hertha in the play-off; who were coached by Wolfgang Felix Magath, who scored the winning goal for Hamburg in 1983 v Juventus in Athens. And beaten in 1980 by Forest, despite dominating the Final in Madrid.


An easier one; former Liverpool captain who won the European Cup at Wembley.....

Number 1 - they numbered their players in alphabetical order

And had 2 in 1978, the keeper Fillol had number 5. Similarly, the Netherlands have used alphabetical numbers; Jongbloed had number 8 in 1978.
