    Queen of the South

    Matthew 12:42

    The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon's wisdom, and now something greater than Solomon is here.

    No, I see where you're coming from SD. but Accrington Stanley is a different club to Accrington, who were founder members, but don't exist any longer. For clarity, it's an existing club who were founder members.

    No, it's a cricket ground. The answer is the home of a current League club

    Number 4 is gonna be a ground of a fallen big giant. So something like the City Ground, County Ground, Bloomfield Road (or is that new?), Deepdale. Something like that. Or Molineux

    Edit - Nottingham now has a Test ground, maybe on the back of hosting a test, so i'm guessing City Ground.

    Edit again - oh damnit, answer already

    I just looked up 8) so I won't give the answer. But that is astonishing! A different time.

    And 3) is pretty amazing (again, looked up, not guessed)

    6. Never heard of him, but how about this? France became the first team to field players whose surnames began with every letter of the alphabet?
