    Fez obviously knows this - but for others, there are clues in his last post.

    Nope not Malaga, NZ. Going back to the clue which Fez indicated. The city has 2 major football clubs in the second division - one of whom just missed out on promotion last year.

    All yours NZ. This frees Fez from having to think of a question. Hamburg, with 1.8 Million inhabitants is the largest city in the EU. without top tier football. This has been the case for 2 years, since Hamburg SV came tumbling down - this is a record which has been held by both Berlin and Cologne in the past. With reference to the clues I gave HSV have won the old European cup, and are also the only club in Europe which possesses its own cemetary (for some long term supporters and club members). Over to you.

    Thanks Cologne, I think.

    Which islands did the UK and Germany swap at the end of the 19th century?

    HSV and my German team St Pauli also have the worst kits! HSV always look like they're in "Sunday League" training wear and last season SP had chocolate brown shirts with a red and white band.... awful!

    That didn't tke long! Bismark said that Germany had swapped "trousers for a button." Freddie Mercury could have been German.
    All your Cologne.
