Name them (and no cheating!)

[Sean Thornton]

Yes maybe, but when we refer to Middlesbrough or Rangers we don't say Middlesbrough 1986 Ltd or Rangers 2013 Ltd do we (or whatever the years were that they reformed?)

This isn't a contract negotiation its a quick frigging quiz for Christ's sake! If I 'd posted 'in the League no doubt you would have included Juventus arguing "Ah but you didn't specify the English League!"

You gotta be either a lawyer, accountant or a copper.

Lighten up man. We're champions! (Even if it is only the third tie of English professional football, which for your benefit also includes two Welsh teams and arguably here we go again Newport County who of course ......(yawn that's enough nit picking ed)

As an accountant, I can't help but point out that there aren't two Welsh teams in the third tie, or tier as I prefer to call it, of English professional football.

 

[Bladepicker]

Charlton
Fulham (twice)
Reading
Sunderland
York
Wolves
Plymouth
Newcastle

They are right I'm sure - not sure about the last

Bolton?

And neither are Newport County. Who are Welsh too.

Poor BladeFisher having a nightmare with his fun trivia thread and we wonder why WhiteHawk doesn't do sheep anymore!!

 

[Bladepicker]

Two to go.

Go west.....

One's us. So one to go?

West Brom with your clue??

 

[BladeFisher]

I know Charlton, Reading, I think Sunderland but don't know the others. My guess

Forest
Newcastle
QPR
Norwich
Fulham
Wigan
Swansea

Not Swansea

 

[BladeFisher]

No.

If you want to discuss Newport County, you will find for a while they were an ENGLISH club. Hence the prevarocation....

 

[BladeFisher]

One's us. So one to go?

West Brom with your clue??

Nah that's the Midlands ..... or catarrh country.

 

[BladeFisher]

One's us. So one to go?

West Brom with your clue??

Actually due to a Fuck up in the data there are 10 other teams. Wolves was the one missed out. So it's still 2 to go.

Go West...

 

[Bladepicker]

Nah that's the Midlands ..... or catarrh country.

West Country and South west teams not mentioned:

Brizzle City
Brizzle Rovers
Yeovil
Exeter
Cheltenham
Torquay
Cardiff
Newport!!!

One of them?

 

[BladeFisher]

Final Answer Chris.

Yep Plie Mouth were another one.

 

[BladeFisher]

West Country and South west teams not mentioned:

Brizzle City
Brizzle Rovers
Yeovil
Exeter
Cheltenham
Torquay

Newport!!!

One of them?

You missed one out !!

 

[Sean Thornton]

No.

If you want to discuss Newport County, you will find for a while they were an ENGLISH club. Hence the prevarocation....

Really?

 

[Bladepicker]

I'll let someone else pick up the baton as you said not Swansea and we have got Plymouth so not mentioned them. I cant think of another south west team - or do you mean north west???? Ah bugger it I give up!

 

[BladeFisher]

Really?

Yep, they played their matches in England during the hiatus when they were a non league club. Now returned to Newport I believe. Don't want them to go down. But hey ho.

 

[Nade]

Man City fucking smashed the 100 points mark when they were in the Championship a few years back.

Choo choo.

No.

Really?

Surely if they are representing a Welsh town then they are a Welsh club. That must be how you define a clubs nationality.

I would say Berwick are an English club in the scottish league for example.

Well no. Because I seem to recall the sad case of Newport was they kind of did an MK Dons but like the old Wimbledon I think the Council didn't want them Sure they played in the Forest of Dean or somewhere. Might have ground shared with Forest Green or something.

Bit like Wednesday really. They still aspire to be a Sheffield club. but as we all now they're just suburban mugwamps.

 

[BladeFisher]

Swindon

Hoorah.

One to go. Still go West......

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Leicester ?

 

[BladeFisher]

Leicester ?

Nope.

Want a clue?

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

That's them all is it not?

Fulham x2
Newcastle
Sunderland
Swindon
Plymouth
York
Reading
Charlton
Wigan

As you say, it's just a quiz. Are you sure it's me who needs to 'lighten up' as you seem pretty up tight yourself?

BTW, there are actually 12 different teams so it's not exactly your finest moment is it.

Fulham (twice), Wigan, Sunderland, Wolves, Reading, NUFC, Plymouth, Swindon. York, Charlton, Leicester and the Mighty Blades.

It is plus Wolves which http://www.fl125.co.uk/records/league-points conveniently left off. (Later discovered it was only up to 2013. Doh!)

Thanks for everyone who took part

We are Blades. Remember to ask your piggy mates when was the last time Wednesday got 100 points in a season? Or which teams won the league with the fewest points (Chelsea, Wednesday (1928-9) and Arsenal - arguably) https://www.theguardian.com/football/2005/jan/19/theknowledge.sport

Yes, thanks for spoiling a bit of fun. You seem the sort of person that could turn a wedding into a funeral. Full of sarcasm and out for a fight. I am glad you enjoyed your pedantry. Says a lot about your character.
