Day 8 results

Got 102 on a PC - Imagined that I would know more lyrics

Someone had written the lyrics to it on the wall of my room when I was on a kibbutz (a long time ago) so I spent 6 months looking at them. Used to know it off by heart (used to sing that and Hey Jude round the guitar and a few bottles of vodka most weekends, especially when a new batch of fresh Swedish volunteers arrived )

bit annoyed I didn't get all of them tbh.

Got a bit lucky with that one tbh. Once I figured out what the song was my eyes lit up.

Liked that one - got 14 straight away and 3 more after a think. 3 more I could have got maybe (one I didn't ever watch and so couldn't get name right). 2 no chance.

"Friday Sporcle Club"

Anybody fancy carrying this on regularly - maybe once a week, taking it in turns to set on a rota??

I don't care what day it is (though preferably not saturday) so if anybody has preferences just shout. Thought Friday would be good as it is the end of the working week for some of you and many are online setting up FF teams etc anyway.

[tommymooney]

yep, as I don't play fantasy sports right now, I'd be happy to have a reason to be brought back to FISO

[Hotpot]

If its once a week, why not post the quiz on friday and you have until Sunday night to complete?

[bluenosey]

Sounds like a sporcker of an idea

[Thomarse]

Yeah sounds good to me

[morganb]

I love it when a quiz comes together

[murf]

Sorted. New year. New plan.

Definitely no need to apologise. A football quiz on a Fantasy Football forum isn't really "out there"

My general football knowledge is bloody awful though so it was never for me.

[Thomarse]

Day 9 was my fave so far and took me back to panini stickers through the 90's and arguing with my mates in the 00's uni about prem scorers
