People are always trying to show how knowledgeable they are with questions such as "who are the only English team to play in the Scottish league?" and various other (harder!) similar questions. I've compiled a list of all the ones I can remember and I'll hopefully be adding to these. See how you get on and click on the links for the answers. I think I've got all the answers right, but if you know better - mail me! It makes it hard when they keep changing the names of the leagues! For anyone who still hasn't got the easy question above, you'd better bury your head in shame next time you go anywhere near Berwick Rangers' ground!

HELP!!!!This has got to be the most ridiculous football trivia question of all time. I first heard it several years ago and didn't know the answer. I saw someone phone up 'Soccer AM' claiming that he had made the question up and it was a hoax, yet still it runs and runs... So do you know the answer??? "What enters the field of play in a football match at half-time, but doesn't leave until the match is over?
