Q8) ostembor, O'kane

Cheat

No. 1 : Completed the record of playing clubs from England, Ireland, Scotland & Wales in the FA Cup ?

Looking back at players from local clubs who came through the ranks gives us the likes of Spearing, Eagles, Sturridge, Boyata, Weiss, O'Kane, Otsemobor etc

 

Did any of them ever win the FA Youth Cup?

Did Gary Cahill play in it for Villa?

Cheat

Ive been loyal to my missus a long time, Ill have you know.

 

Oh and cheating at WW quizzes is a bit gay, are they even right?

Right, I'll leave you ladies to it.

ace quiz

 

q8 i think one is zak night

Quick update:

 

Q1:

No. 1 : Completed the record of playing clubs from England, Ireland, Scotland & Wales in the FA Cup ?

 

Almost, but not quite. When Nottingham Forest went to Cardiff in 1922 they also complated this set. But Bolton's had an extra factor.

 

Q2:

No.2 I'm guessing Royal Engineers?

 

 

Correct - their was a clue, in that the question said Captain rather than captain.

 

Q7:

 

Q7: Blacburn Olympic ?

 

No. Blackburn Olympic were the first Lancashire winners (1883), but not the first semi-finalists.

 

Q8, Q9, Q10:

 

Most of the names bandied about fit in somewhere, but there are plenty more - some more obvious than others.

Zat Knight isn't one though - he joined Fulham from Rushall Olympic, who never reached  such heights.

Q5 Stoke?

Q6 Sheffield?

Q7 Darwen?

Q7 Darwen?

 

Spot on.

Q5: Stoke didn't add City to their name until 1925 (when Stoke became a City).

Q6: Sheffield are the oldest league club using the United name, but not the first FA Cup entrants.

Q5)Leeds city?
