So it's still not Durham then?

Stoke, cos neither of their teams have ever played football. Best I've got.

 

[RickyVilla]

Nope.

 

[al_pacino]

Eastbourne is quite a big place.

 

[Marty]

Slough maybe?

My geographic knowledge is almost entirely based on where football clubs are located so this is a tricky one!

 

[Trotter]

Well biggest city in UK not to have side in the League (assuming you mean English League) is Glasgow

 

[RickyVilla]

I'm having a bit of a mare here!
Which is the biggest city in England not to have had a league football team?
Clue it's rugby league territory.

Is St Helens a separate city from Liverpool?

If not, then Widnes or Wakefield maybe.

I've had about 7 guesses at this, not sure I should be allowed to keep trying.

@nailsy what are the rules on multiple answers?

 

[RickyVilla]

Wakey!

 

[pffft]

Wakey!

I was bound to get there eventually, I was just gonna name every town with a RL team! I'll await adjudication from nailsy because if I've had too many attempts I shouldn't be allowed to ask a question.

Nah just go for it.

Alright then. What's the record number of red cards ever shown in a single professional match? This could be anywhere in the world, not just England.

 

[werty]

Seven?

 

[Spurrific]

3,000

 

[RickyVilla]

They stop the game, I think, when a team goes below 7, so 22?

 

[Marty]

I bet all 22 players + staff have been sent off after a mass brawl at some point, so...

30?

 

[pffft]

None of you have got it, although one of you is close.

 

[RickyVilla]

35

 

[pffft]

so very close RV

 

[RickyVilla]

34
