Default A couple of quiz questions i'm stuck on..

Any quiz Kings or Queens out there? It's only a local charity thing but can't seem to/too lazy to Google the following. These are all serious BTW and typed as they are written.

1. What is the nickname of 'Blink 182'?

2. Who would win in a fight, Cliff Richard or Jimmy Saville?

3. When will Newcastle United win something?

4. Who had a hit with the song 'Amanda'?

5. Who was voted PFA player of the year in the 1990/91 season?

6. Who does former Spurs goalkeeper Kasey Keller play for now?

7. Where did Sunderland play their home games before they moved to The Stadium of Light?

8. Who won La Liga in 1985 in his first season in charge of Barcelona?

9. Whose hat trick sank England in the 1998 European Championships?

Football's not a strong point in this house

Roy.

lol, "grappling fans"

"now then, now then, how's about you say that again"?

cliff can hit him over the head with a tennis racket or bible though.

Ahhh, but surely it would be against Cliffs principals to get involved in physical violence ? wouldnt he just turn the other cheek and walk ?

Dont know if JS was actually an enforcer for the mob, but he used to run some dody nightclubs in the 60's that were quite rough.

But.... you'd have to take into account his age now, I know he's fit for a 150 year old, but he may drop dead as he swings the first punch, in which case Cliff would win by default.

But apparently wrong.

Useful resource for checking who had a hit, with what, and when.
