British European Finalists.

I created this one, inspired by Fulham's feats last night.

Clue - there are no Welsh teams ;)

Any feedback welcome. Force answers in order? More time? Keen to hear your thoughts.

Good work James, I got 56/57 in 3 minutes 15 seconds, no prizes for guessing which one. Timing pretty much spot on, I prefer to give random answers rather than in order.

 

[Matt the Shrimp]

Ditto - 56/57. Good work with the first answer... you learn something new every day!

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

All 57, with 01.51 left. Best I've ever done on one of those. Helped by the fact that I knew the 1st one, as a useless bit of trivia.

England Test cricket captains since the 1960s

At the time of posting this, our second most recent captain was spelt incorrectly, but you'll be able to figure it out easily enough. I got all bar four or five.

28/30, missed the 1 test wonder in 99, and the guy from 89-91

Good one here: http://www.sporcle.com/games/peanut4/200_premier_goals

I got 135 and exhausted my brain, some odd scorers and 90's legends in there.

127 for me, 90th percentile. My brain is now jelly.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Last five managers for each Premier League team

88/101 for me. Surprising how little turnover some sides - e.g. Stoke and Brum - have had.

 

[canveyshrimper]

Only 73 for me.

Nice little quiz here.

I don't think I'm spoiling the fun by mentioning that we feature fairly highly.

Sorry, got distracted by a very pretty colleague :whistling:

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

An excellent one that. I played it last week, getting 76 first time round and then 99 a few days later. And both times contrving to forget Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke :doh:

Only 52/100 for me. As per usual, I missed a few pretty obvious ones.

I got 68, and I'm amazed that Larwood wasn't there.

Damn you beat me. 65.

I missed a certain West Indian Sky commentator :doh: and basically the rest were Convicts, who I obviously refuse to acknowledge their feats.

I'm off to have a go at the batting one now

Only 62 on that, with a few notable ommissions.

Incidentally I missed the Sky commentator on the bowling one.
