    Here's a thread just for football trivia questions.

    If there's sufficient interest I'll post a new question when the current one has been answered.


    Current question is on POST #46


    Q. Who were the first winners of the fourth tier under its current name of "League Two"?

    Cant say I paid too much attention to League Two when Pompey were in the Premier League but I'll have a guess.

    How about Gillingham?

    Worth a shout. I'm not sure what the odds are on me picking the right answer without cheating and looking it up...what other teams can I think of from the lower leagues at that time? Hmm...

    ...

    ...Southend Utd?

    Well done Hermy for getting Yeovil Town!

    Next question:

    In Pompey's first ever season in the Fourth Division they finished 7th, which would have been a Play-Off place these days, pitting us against Barnsley, who were promoted in 4th.
    Which two sides would have contested the other playoff semi final?
