How many can you get. 142/160 for me, nailed everything up until conny north/south then fell apart, deceptively difficult, so annoying when you've only got one team left in a division and you cant for the life of you think what it is. Missed some obvious ones in CN/CS that i should have got too

Haven't tried it, but i'd hope to get near to Jonnys score, will give it a go when I'm done at work.

Although saying that I still can't get all 14 league teams that have the word Ton in that they had in an as on talksport for ages, think I got to 10 or so

Brighton & HA
Southampton
Burton Albion
Northampton Town
Leyton Orient
Bolton Wanderers
Everton
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Charlton Athletic
Milton Keynes Dons
Accrington Stanley
Preston North End
Aston Villa

Cant think of anymore, unless its a trick question and they include Nottingham Forest because it has it backwards or they included Luton.

Darlington? Or would that not count due to them not being in the right leagues

If Luton doesnt then i dont think we can count a team playing in the Northern Premier League, theres a few in non league.

Workington, Luton, Leamington, Boston, Sutton, Tonbridge, AFC Totton, Histon, Nuneaton

What an insanely annoying thing, I've done 4 minutes got 40ish and i'm stumped, really bugging me already!

Didn't get West Brom

Got 1 team in the Conference north or south - Harrogate :thumbs;

Missed -
1 in the Prem
3 in Championship
7 in League 1
10 in League 2
11 in Blue Sq

So hard to remember them when it's all there in front of you and found myself just thinking of words to fill the gaps. Had Coventry and Crewe and couldn't figure out the one between them

I did it by just linking clubs, either geographically or by who thier rivals are.

I did that too, went all round Manchester in my head, tried to go round Sheffield area, boroughs of london etc...

Got 85 in the end

And when I said I hoped to get near to your score, I meant the 99 of Walby, I wasn't too far off
