Webbo Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 I've been asked to compile 10 sports and games questions as a round in a quiz my father in law is doing in October. I've got an idea for some but a few suggestions would be welcome.They don't all have to be Mastermind standard, I'm looking for a mix of abilities type questions.
Jimothy Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Name three England Captains who have played for Scunthorpe United.
Webbo Posted 17 September 2017 Author Posted 17 September 2017 Just now, Facecloth said: Name three England Captains who have played for Scunthorpe United. I sort of need the answers too. I think Keegan played for Scunthorpe. Did Ray Clemence?
Jimothy Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Just now, Webbo said: I sort of need the answers too. I think Keegan played for Scunthorpe. Did Ray Clemence? I thought I'd give you chance to answer first too. You got two, the others Ian Botham.
Webbo Posted 17 September 2017 Author Posted 17 September 2017 Just now, Facecloth said: I thought I'd give you chance to answer first too. You got two, the others Ian Botham. that's a good question.
Jimothy Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Just now, Webbo said: that's a good question. Been asked it a few times in quizzes. Always catches people out

Guest Kopfkino Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Who is the only player to score in each of the top 8 levels of English football? (It happened recently)

RODNEY FERNIO Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Matt Elliott ? Remember he went through the divisions

stripeyfox Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Old football grounds is a good one - who played at Leeds Road, Burnden Park or The Old Showground as examples? I did one once where the "tough" question was (and bear with me - it is a long one) In 1993 (I think), Leeds and Stuttgart played a two legged Champions League tie which Stuttgart won on away goals. However, they fielded an ineligible player so UEFA ordered a one off replay to decide the tie. Q1 - where was this tie played? Q2 - who scored the winning goal? (I wouldn't recommend asking this question - as it's very niche!)
Tuna Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Only have football ones unfortunately, here is an easier one. What was significant about the world cup qualifier between Estonia and Scotland on the 9th October 1996?

Tuna Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Just now, stripeyfox said: the one where Estonia didn't turn up? Yep, the Scots kicked off on an empty pitch and the ref abandoned the game after 3 seconds.
stripeyfox Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Just now, Webbo said: Leeds Road, was that Huddersfield? I think Burden Park was Bolton. good effort. The Old Showground is tougher. The team that played there were the first club to build a new stadium in almost a hundred years when they moved there in the late 1980's

I think they were the first new stadium in 100 years.
stripeyfox Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Who was the first player born AFTER the 1966 World Cup to be capped by England? No googling!
stripeyfox Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Just now, Webbo said: Scunthorpe? I think they were the first new stadium in 100 years. Correct!
foxfanazer Posted 17 September 2017 Posted 17 September 2017 Not sure if it's the sort of question you're looking for but who are the 5 teams in the top 5 English leagues whose names start and end with the same letter

Only 5 golfers have won all four of the modern day majors - otherwise known as the 'Grand Slam'. Can you name them? Gene Sarazen Ben Hogan Gary Player Jack Nicklaus Tiger Woods
