The only time it has been won by a team outside England. Cor, aren't I clever !!!!

NOT CLEVER
THAT ISNT THE ANSWER THAT IVE GOT WRITTEN HERE BE MORE DEFINATE AND ILL LET YOU OFF FOR BEING CHEEKY

FOR REFSEC
AND NO NOT THAT CLEVER THERE WERE 2 QUESTIONS YOU ONLY TRIED 1
RefSec
The only Welsh team to win it. I'll try the other one later!
wvfcgaffer
david james......portsmouth
RefSec
I'd never have got that in a month of Sundays! and missj, be gentle with me at the Secretaries meeting!
Little Bloke
Some simpler questions as I can't answer the others! :)
1. Which cities clubs are called Pirates and Robins?
2. Which english league club play away from home every match?
3. Name the first player to be sent off in an F.A. Cup Final - include the year and teams participating as well!
4. Which club play at Huish Park?
5. In the mid-80's, which clubs' shirt sponsor was a no-smoking badge?
I'd be impressed with anyone that answers all 5 questions without cheating (although a few are quite easy!)
RefSec
I think number one is Bristol and number 3 is Kevin Moran, 1987 , Man Utd v Everton and Norman Whiteside scored a beautiful goal in extra-time to win it, and number 4 is Yeovil Town. I'll try the other two later!
Little Bloke
Answers
Well done RefSec... you were right with you're answers except with the year of the FA Cup Final (at least not what I have written down!) - Try the year again -- you were close!
The last one I thought would give most problems...
RefSec
It was 1985! and is the answer to number 2 MK Dons, formerly known as Wimbledon.
missj
clever
clever mr wvfc gaffer more brains than refsec
Little Bloke
Answers
The year was 1985 - correct!
Unfortunately, you are wrong on question 2 - it's not MK Dons (or Wimbledon, whichever you want to call them!)
You haven't tried question 5 yet? Come on, don't keep waiting all year!
Little Bloke
RefSec and Brains???
missj, you are quite correct about RefSec.... but be gentle, he's inexperienced and needs to learn the ways of the footballing world!
I won't comment on the brains part in particular, because I'm not exactly a clever bloke myself! - I make plenty of mistakes though, so in time I must become a genius what with all the lessons that I learn
RefSec
missj, I think we're even now, but you're probably right! Little_Bloke, one day I may visit the little world you live in.
As for the question that I haven't answered, you will probably be waiting till the end of the year for an answer!
missj

Correct missj
West Brom / no-smoking badges is right for question 5.
Disappointed with you RefSec - thought you'd have got that one!
RefSec
missj, I think we may discuss this notion of football/women in a good-natured way on Monday night and I will even buy you a drink! Little_Bloke, yes I did say buy a drink.
Little Bloke
I'll bring my camera phone - give me permission to put on the website
Make sure you're there on Monday night when I get there please (seriously!)... Want to give you things to do with learning how to update the website when I am away on holiday! - Just thought (that's twice this year!), you will have to learn CSS, CSS-P and JavaScript on top of HTML in case anything gets screwed up while I am away! If I can have half hour of your time before the meeting starts, that would help a bit.
I will of course check in to this forum and to the administrative aspect of the website - just in case. I will also see about creating something for the site, so that I can create a website which holds the real website inside it but also allows you certain permissions as well... But only at a 2nd level, so if anything goes wrong and you make it worse by accident, I can always go to the top level access and correct anything necessary! - But if that did happen, I would expect a free night out because of the time and effort it'd take me to correct everything
In the meantime, google "HTML tutorials" and begin familiarising yourself with the coding etc.... once confident with that, google "CSS tutorials" or "Cascading StyleSheets tutorials", and so on.... that and us getting together will mean you will know almost as much as I do in no time!

SEVERAL MORE FOR YA TO EXERCISE YA BRAINS
1. Who is the only player to score in a manchester, merseyside & glasgow derby?

5. What was used in the 1973 fa cup final & never used again?
6. Name the 5 teams beginning with C that have won the fa cup & give the year/years for each team?
missj
little_bloke you have my permission to post a pic of me recieving my free drink now all you need is refsecs
RefSec
The answer to question 5 may be an Orange ball, and of course you have my permission to post a pic of me buying a drink. At least there will be one of me buying a drink, unlike you, Little_Bloke, you've got short arms and deep pockets. missj, I take it you will be the lady who will heckle me when I say something on Monday night and the one giving me a clip round the ear!
missj
correct to question 5 and i aint no lady!!!!! young woman yes but definatly not a lady and no i wont heckle but only a little clip round the ear as long as you stay seated coz ya taller than me
RefSec
OK, fairy snuff.
Little Bloke
missj.... you have displeased me somewhat!!
I thought I made it quite clear that I can only answer easy questions!! -Things like "What's your name" and "Where are you?"
I will try my best, but no guarantees!
RefSec, I may have shorts arms etc but my memory is brilliant... I remember not caring about that as there are plenty of mugs around to do it for me?
missj
i feel quite clever on having stumped ya both a little bit guilty though NOT sorry !!!! Refsec our manager has asked if you can sort us out a ref for a friendly on 23rd aug 7:30 kick off at the thringstone miners welfare ground homestead road please and i promise to be extra nice to you at meeting
missj
ps alittle help googling football quizzes and answers is a wonderful tool
Little Bloke
C H E A T E R !
Females and Google seem to fit very well, but now unsure again on females and football! You have sooo let me down!
And I enjoyed ribbing the RefSec so much... Oh well... will have to live with it!
PS: RefSec was correct.... my arms and pockets weren't meant for each other, so I can't offer you a drink as well!
missj
ya can still rib him ill find some that aint on there he probably stil wont get them
RefSec
OK, try me! anyway, this thread started as 'quiz question', now I don't want to go to the secretaries meeting because I will get told off!!
missj

wvfcgaffer
number 1 is craig bellamy i think.
Little Bloke
The good news is that the forum hasn't really taken off yet! - Should get loads better once the season starts and people really start looking at our website again!
Thanks for the compliment! - To keep your opinions of us in high regard, it's probably best not to know us more than you currently do!! It's all down hill from here!
We hope the others like it as much as everyone already registered do.
missj
sorry wvfcgaffer thats not right try again
wvfcgaffer
its andrei kanchelskis then. i knew bellamy was wrong as soon as i posted it
RefSec
missj, I shall PM you with the refs details. If I can't get one, I'll do it myself, who's it against?
Little Bloke
missj, here's what I came up with...
Clapham Rovers won it (19th Century - early 1880s to be more specific, but not sure of the actual year),
Cardiff City won it in 1927,
Charlton Athletic won it in ? (I think mid-40s but unsure of actual date),
Chelsea won it in 1970, 1997, 2000 and 2007,
Coventry City won it in 1987.
I will confirm years when I can remember them (if I can!). Am I right about these missj?
RefSec
The answers to 2&3 are Southampton FC in 1982. Alan Ball, Mick Channon, Kevin Keegan, Mick Mills, Peter Shilton, Dave Watson and Mark Wright.

more for the grey matter
1. Cuba made their first finals appearance in france 1938. their qualifying group includedcolumbia, costa rica, mexico, el salvador and surinam. how many matches did cuba play to qualify for france 38?
2. How many goals did england concede in their six games during the 66 world cup?
3. The 1974 final between west germany and holland was delayed as soimething was missing from the pitch. what was it?
4. Here are Frances 3 match results from spain 82

How many points did they pick up from those 3 games?
5. In mexico 86 how many of the quarter finals ended in penalty shoot outs and between who?
missj
cheat
and guess wot these were not googled so good luck to ya
Little Bloke
Answers missj!
These are more my kind of questions missj! Here we go...:
(1) Cuba never played a qualifier as their opponents (USA) withdrew from the Competition! - They had a walkover.
(2) Conceded 3 goals in the finals (1 in the semi-final versus Portugal and 2 in the final versus W Germany)
(3) Match delayed due to lack of corner flags!
(4) France ended with 3 points as in those days it was still only 2 points for a win!
(5) 3 of the 4 quarter-finals went to penalties (might be a bit hazy on rest of info but I think I'm right...)
(a) Brazil Vs France (3-4) after a 1-1 draw,
(b) West Germany Vs Mexico (4-1) after a 0-0 draw, and
(c) Spain Vs Belgium (4-5) after a 1-1 draw.
NEXT!!

Sorry missj, maybe I should have mentioned that I know a little about world cups and european international competitions Even though I am only a young pup!
I'll rack my brain and come up with some really tough questions later on!
RefSec
He's a young pup in a very old dog's body, did I say dogsbody!! He supports Reading, so that should say it all:)
missj
now now boys brotherly love and all that stuff
RefSec
Brotherly love, what's that. More like sibling rivalry, but then he is 12 years younger, so I should set a good example....but I don't!!
Little Bloke
I haven't got enough time to dig down deep enough to follow your examples bro!
Anyway missj, there's no such thing as brotherly love... loyalty maybe but love??? Nah..!
And I ain't a dogsbody - I can't even afford the tail!!! I gotta go work 4 days just to afford to go to the meeting Monday night!
And yes, I did say "work" RefSec! - Now whether that's work that my employer wants me to do or not.... that remains omitted!
Little Bloke
PS: READING FOR EUROPE THIS YEAR!!!
Have put £20 on it, that and £10 on Sunderland, Derby and Fulham to be relegated next season!
Oh shucks..... that's about a weeks wages ain't it?! Never mind!

Ah well, I've got to go and do some real work for a bit, so you two young 'uns just behave. I know what you can be like withuot a mature, steadying influence!!(tongue firmly in cheek!)
missj
im only coming on monday coz i get time off for good behaviour
missj
now as for ya team that plays away every match ive only come up with mk dons and so has everyone ive asked so i think u need to be telling the answer to that one please it is now doing my head in
Little Bloke
Tip:
It is a bit of a trick question, and MK Dons could be classed as a correct answer by many, but it's not the answer I have! - And that's what I'm going by!
Spoiler:
Grimsby Town FC - actually play at neighbouring Cleethorpes!
missj
VERY CLEVER LITTLE_BLOKE WONDER IF YA BROTHER KNOWS WITHOUT LOOKING
Little Bloke
No he didn't.... he asked me privately what the answer was and promised not to give away the answer, cos it was doing his head in as well!
missj
well must admit his question is doin my head in all i keep comin up with is arsenal v liverpool 2006 but thats carling cup not fa cup
RefSec
Would you like a clue to my question?
missj
YES PLEASE!!
Little Bloke
I know the answer RefSec - can I answer it now?
RefSec
Give missj another 10 minutes. The jokes are really bad, BTW.
RefSec
Go on then, if you must.
Little Bloke
Well... The clue was in the title of the topic! Hehehe.
By the way missj, cheap shots aiming at the refs first! - Surely you should have been aiming at the goal first, and once missing the open goal (as usual), THEN you attack the ref?
Little Bloke
The answer to the RefSec's question missj is............
A. E. Fogg refereed the 1935 FA Cup Final, and so stopped it as per Competition Rules!
The result (I think) in that final was 4-2 where Sheffield Wednesday beat West Bromwich Albion.
Correct RefSec?
RefSec
Absolutely, Sir.

By the looks of it, none of us three seem to have anything better to do with our time.

You could say that about me, as I am currently working on re-coding the website by entering the clubs details and rest of the archives onto the website!, I am also writing email after email to County FA and several other people -- At least it's still night-time and not 5am like last time!!

I am still creating the list of difficult questions for you all !
But here's some easier ones to get you warmed up:
1. Who was the last person to score a hat-trick in the Old Wembley Stadium?
2. Name the 3 teams in the English and Scottish Leagues who each have letters A, B, C, D and E.
3. Name the only team in 92 whose name begins with 5 consonants.
4. Name the 3 players connected with barbecues (Must be the 3 I have written down).
5. Name the 14 Clubs that do not share their last name with any others in the English Leagues
6. Name the 4 players (that I have written down) who have each won 4 FA Cup Medals - Include which club they were with, and what year they won them!
7. In which city would you find the 2 English League grounds closest to each other?
This'll get you warmed up for the real test yet to come!
