The Blur Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Following the sucess of football trivia thread, I just thought it would be awesome to start a football trivia league. Once a month I will be posting up 24 questions from 4-4-2 football magazine, their questions are usually excellent and cover all tiers of football. The first person to post a correct answer for any question will get a point. I will also update the questions with answers so you can check which questions are unanswered. Once all 25 questions has been answered or the next issue of 4-4-2 is released, a league table will be posted up (I might need a good graphic designer- any takers?) Obviously I will have to rely on all of your honesty to not google for answers! I will be posting clues if needed. The winner will be crowned in December. Good luck!
