I have a non-FFC trivia question: who captained England whilst playing in the old 4th division?

I'll answer it once you've entered my quiz lol
Ian Botham , when he was at scunthorpe .
Done!
22 entries so far guys. Shaping up to be a good competition.
Remember this is just month 1. We've still got April, May, June and July to go. Still plenty of time To claw it back if you have a bad start.
Just registered, took 40 minutes to find all the answers (lol), I assume a green tick after answering each question means the answer was correct? If it was I am going to have a celebration drink, 15 in fact!!
I think the green tick just means done and move on. I got green ticks on all I think and some were just a guess. Out of 15 I think I got 8 or 9.
The green tick definitely does not mean you got them all right. I think it means you actually answered the question.
35 people so far. Get involved! Plenty of room for more.
Why bother to look up answers?
I may have got some wrong, but I much preferred to make it a test of my memory

I am sure you are right, but there aren't many people who would have got 1/3 of the questions right...me included!!! I treated it as a bit of fun and at my age good to test the internet library. After finishing the test, I saw the rules "No Cheating", so I will disqualify myself from this "fun" quiz competition. In trying to work out the answers it was great to read a lot of the other information available.

To be fair having a quick browse through it doesn't feel like anyone cheated. At least I hope they haven't. There's not much fun otherwise.
I hope you enjoyed it. Keep a look out for the April one at the end of next month
In the event of a tie, will it be decided on penalties?? Well done Danny on the concept of the quiz!!
I was feeling really smug about getting all of the answers right and then I read the thread. 094.gif

Do you really want penalties lol? We could be here a while.
We've got until July for me to worry about a tiebreaker but I did have this brought up when chatting to the other mods about the whole idea. And I suggested guessing the next home attendance but that's not certain yet

Reasonable suggestion, but can you name them all attending that next match! Keep up the good work Danny! I will use every means at my disposal to get as many of the questions right as I can, whilst I hope you will report on my score at the end of the quiz (which will probably be rubbish if I do my research late at night or after listening to a poor FFC performance), I will declare myself ineligible to receive any prize!! I don't want to cause any disarray amongst the camp, my name is DaveW, NOT Chris Martin!!!

No worries.
Scores will be posted when it's closed and when I get a chance. Might not be straight away because we've currently had 43 entries and counting
Get Westcliff to do it, he will know the scores before most answer the questions!!
Have to admit there was some guessing but I think I did relatively well given my limited Fulham experience.

Apart from the question re 1896 (?) I have been around long enough (as a supporter) to have had a stab at all the other questions, I was just pleased that with some research and a little bit of common sense I was able to provide the right answers......or did I? All will be revealed, as I have already said, just a bit of fun!!! Danny are the results and league table going to be published after each set of questions and will MJG provide us with a prediction of the final table?
I am enjoying this, it is bringing out the positive side of me, come on guys join in but no cheating!!!
League table will be revealed as soon as I'm able to. I won't make promises I can't keep. Having 4 young kids it's impossible to say I will Defo do it before X. Hopefully no more than a couple of days after the close date so let's say results are posted Sunday night or Monday as a guess.
44 entries so far. Thanks for taking part.
Don't think I did particularly well, but brought back a few memories along the way!
I could well be in the running for any booby prize!
52 entries so far guys and scores all counted so far. Only 9 people score double figures

I might have got them in Roman Numerals
May not have got the best score (or a good score), but I enjoyed that ! Especially the older questions which I don't have a clue about, makes me look them up afterwards !
Will you be posting the answers as well? (once the deadline has passed, obviously...)

I'm glad you liked it. There will be one at the end of every month so remember to keep checking. Every score goes to your total. Winner announced after July quiz.
Of course the answers will be revealed. I've been doing these things long enough to know not to do half a job lol.
I will post all the answers and how many voted for which answer. One of the questions, the least popular answer is the correct one lol. Also there will be a league table with all your scores. Not just the top ones, all 62 and counting so far.
Thanks for taking part.
I had a go. Not too optimistic.... fp.gif

You've got 4 hours and 45 mins to enter. Deadline is at 1pm.
72 entries so far.
I guessed every answer. Would be happy with 3 right.
I did this. Got to say, its a good job its multi-choice!!
I shouted out answers before looking at the list of options and the one I thought was not there on two occasions!!
The mind plays tricks!!
Good effort DB.

I cannot comprehend anyone getting 100% correct on this quiz. If they do, they are either a genius or a rascal, being a rascal, bounder or cad, is deduced as being up to shenanigans, and they have not adhered to the rules of the competition.
Nevertheless, I hope there is a full enquiry and an official investigation as to how this was achieved. Anyone found guilty should be made to carry out a forfeit.
10 mins to enter guys! 74 in the competition so far.
When do we find out the results?

If you have not received the results by now, it means you did not get a single question right.
Did you not read the small print.
I did post it Saturday night and by Monday it had virtually been ignored so I deleted it. I'll post it again.
posted!
