We have the CHAMPIONSHIP LEAGUE 4th v the PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPION
JOCKAY v POPPYDOG - 1st leg
Six Questions:
Qs 1-3-5 on home subject FILMS & CINEMA
Qs 2-4-6 on General Knowledge
Qs 3 & 4 are multiple choice A-F
One Answer each and FIRST correct answer gets the point .
Any answers given after the correct answer is announced in effect the Time Up will not count.
Surnames are acceptable as an answer where the answer is a name, unless a full name is specifically requested.
All other types of answers must be typed in FULL. Abbreviated answers may be given as goals at the referees discretion but only if the other quizzer answers incorrectly or outside time.
NB. If you have a problem with any answer, or anything, type HOLD or STOP, immediately.
And that freezes the quiz

FINAL SCORE
NAPOPPLI 2-2 AJOCKS
Jockay so close to an away win against the Premier League Champion that would have been a moment of pride to treasure always, but Poppydog did a Man U on him with 2 late goals on hard quesitons to snatch a draw.
Well played both ! A great match ! :)
