Stagger Lee Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 5/10 but I have not lived in the UK for over 25 years. Seemingly I beat 78% of people who tried it. But one of the answers given by the guardian is wrong. How many cities in the UK have more than one team in the top divisions? seeing as it said UK I added Glasgow, Edinburgh and Dundee to my total. It should read 'how many cities in England'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagger Lee Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Fair enough about not living in the UK, but it does say top 4 divisions and other England because of the Welsh clubs. It read - How many cities in the UK have more than one team in the top 4 divisions? ..... Getting pedantic but that's the way with quiz questions. I knew before looking at the answer that the parameters had not been defined clearly. I don't want to start an argument but surely the Scottish premiership is above the English league two? And as for Cardiff / Swansea - not applicable due to only one team from each city Either way I missed out in my calculations the two teams from stoke ..... so I stuffed up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I agree. Top four divisions in each country . So Glasgow, Edinburgh, Belfast. Does Londonderry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfatjoe1 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 i agree. I went for 10, thinking about Glasgow and Edinburgh. Also, what does it mean by 'city?' United is in Trafford and London has 32 (i think) boroughs. Booo. I got 6 but i'm claiming 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
