Try Again coatpile Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Really sorry if this already has a topic - just been on the BBC sport website and saw Football Rivalries quiz ( day off today...). You have to enter the clubs which match footballers from teams with a major rivalry (in a very restricted and annoying format). 10 pairs of footballers in 4 mins. Number One: John Atyeo-Ian Holloway. Says it all really - England international with massively impressive record vs annoying person best known for being mouthy on TV... (Quiz wasn’t hard btw) Nice to get some publicity though - and they rightly had us named first!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first attempt I had at that I wasted 3 out of the 4 minutes trying to get it to accept the bloody answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 The questions are straightforward enough but it's not easy to type the answers in the format required inside 4 minutes. Managed to do it at the second attempt with around 25 seconds to spare. Hardest question for me was the Arthur Duncan/John Robertson rivalry. I was definitely thinking of another club for Robbo.

Taz Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Well the first two answers I gave were Bristol and Glasgow, typed in exactly the same way the answers were shown, with no space after the last letters, and I got them both wrong apparently. Binned it off. POS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Try Again coatpile Posted March 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 Sorry to all the people wanting to put something through the screen with frustration at getting it to accept the right *** answer. On reflection, perhaps I should have said something stronger than ‘restricted and annoying format’. Like Royston I started off thinking about Forest for John Robertson (don’t know the other guy) trouble is even when that was wrong there were many possibilities for how they might want Notts County before I finally gave it up and remembered the Edinburgh connection...

Lanterne Rouge Posted March 13, 2021 Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 Their quizzes are often quite good but ruined by the way you have to put stuff in. Sometimes they want (for instance) WBA, West Brom or West Bromwich Albion and it`s never the same twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
