PLEASE DO NOT POST ANSWERS, OR DISCUSSION ON ANSWERS, BELOW (so that everyone gets a fair crack at answering).

PLEASE SEND YOUR ANSWERS (IF YOU WISH TO DO SO) BY PM IN FORMAT SHOWN BELOW.

Here we go then, ten rounds, 90 questions, 126 answers. To keep it simple, I only want team names (or team and ground names) for answers. I'll post all other match details with answers early in the new year.

Please PM me answers in the following format with each answer on a new line. No need to divide answers into rounds, one long list will do:

1. eg. Liverpool v Manchester United
2. eg. England v France
3. etc etc

When sending, please also indicate if you're happy for your name/score to be listed in the results come the new year.

CLOSING DATE MIDNIGHT THURSDAY 29th DECEMBER.

I'll mark answers in the order received, and I'll be doing so with a bottle of red, so the earlier you get your answers in, the more chance the marking will be accurate... Laughing

Have fun, and Merry Christmas everyone!

Excellent work Yachtsmun and I can see a lot of hard graft went into it. I reckon I'll get 2 or 3 in each round, if I'm lucky.

Easy

Bloomin' heck that is a brilliant quiz but very difficult. Thank you very much, but I can't see me getting too many right.

Great work, will certainly have a crack, although first impressions are that I can get the programme covers, but players and grounds look tricky

This looks brilliant - I will try first just from memory and guesswork then try doing a bit of digging in my own collection to see how I do

Thanks for putting this together!!

This is brilliant but I have to say I've spent about 4-5 hours on it so far and reckon I have about 40 answers! It's totally addictive, particularly those ground views.

Not sure whether to thank Yachtsmun or launch a tirade of abuse!

About 30 answered without too much effort but poor eyesight, the onset of dementia and a nagging partner probably that's my limit. Super quiz, lot of hard work and a credit to the forum and yourself. Thankyou very much and seasons greetings.

Glad you're all enjoying it! It was worth the effort just to see your little faces light up, then contort into frustration... Very Happy

I meant to say, when you send your answers can you please also indicate if you're happy for your username and score to appear in the results list come the new year.

Thanks. Smile

Had a few entries in so far, but you've still got a couple of days to go - entries close midnight Thursday if you want the (semi) professional marking treatment...

... another 2 hours of my life frittered away........ nearly 60 answers now and think I'll have to quit there.

Brilliant quiz Toby but for the sake of my sanity, please don't do it again!

Just wondered if anyone other than me sent his answers in by the midnight deadline?

I'm hoping for a score of about 70. Anyone else?
