Which 8 English cities can have derby matches?

Sorry Ian, I'm going to have to put my anorak on & be Mr Fuss-Pot on this one. If you're going to ask questions then you need the answers to be correct.......

Manchester United's ground is not in the City Of Manchester, it's in Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council.

There are no Premier league football grounds within The City Of London

Nottingham Forest's ground is in the Borough Of Rushcliffe in the County of Nottinghamshire. It is not in The City Of Nottingham.

Give it a couple of years and Everton may be in Knowsley Metropolitan Borough Council.

Anorak off..........................

That was REALLY gay.

[colin]

That was REALLY gay.

I think "sad, pedant who needs to get out more" is probably more accurate.

But thanks for the thought.

At a guess?

Community Shield, 2 in the league, 2 in the league cup (semi final), 2 in the fa cup (1 replay), 2 in the champions league.

[magicalmortensleftpeg]

Im guessing,

2X League

2X in League Cup semi

2X Fa Cup including replay

2X In a European Cup including replay

8 times

edit: plus Community sheild AND Super Cup final

10 times??

Can anyone name the youngest and oldest players to have won the premier league? Dont look it up, just guess.

[T4E]

Twice in the league, twice in the league cup, twice in the FA Cup (with a replay), twice in Europe (Europa or CL knockout stage), once in the European Super Cup and once in the Charity Shield.

So I'm saying 10.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Erm...

League

League

Cup

Cup

Cup Replay

Cup Replay

Champs league x4? 2 Group and 2 legged later round? Maybe qualifying too?

Charity Shield

11+?

Edit: Missed out the Super Cup, ta B4E.

[T4E]

Edit: Dammit morten, that took me ages and you steal in a minute before!

ADB - you can't draw a team from the same country in the CL group stage or in qualifying.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Ah very well, just the 2 in that part then. About 10 seems right?

[T4E]

Think it's 10 yeah. Great question Ozz.

[stuwilky]

Can anyone name the youngest and oldest players to have won the premier league? Dont look it up, just guess.

Is the youngest clichy?

Oldest? Tony Gale?!

[T4E]

Ah, it could actually be 11 now I've thought about it. If two teams finished joint top of the league with identical records and couldn't be seperated by the usual tie breakers then a one off game to determine the title winners would be played.

In your face Mr Leftpeg.
