Probably put this one up before.
Which European country was the first to recognise the State of Israel in 1948 |
|
By:
Arsenal.

Forget that. It was supposed to be a joke referencing a previous football question but I've just realised it doesn't work.

|
By:
lol yes it is
|
|
By:
I would imagine most European countries would have recognised Israel fairly soon after its establishment but don't know the answer and never really considered it.
I just kind of assumed a 'Yes' vote at the UN was an implicit recognition. Thinking about it, I guess some countries voted 'No' but did later recognise the state of Israel. |
|
By:
Yes, just googled it and I see that India recognised Israel in 1950 and iirc they voted 'No'.
|
|
By:
Still countries that would fail to let people in if they have as much as an Israeli stamp on their passport.

Which British club lost out to AC Milan in the Semi-Final of the 62/63 European Cup, having disposed of Cologne, Sporting Lisbon and Abderlecht in the earlier rounds?

No pumphol. Close.
|
|
By:
Dundee?
|
|
By:
Correct Nick. WD. Managed by Shankly.
When I said close, similar nicknames, The Blues and The Dark Blues. |
|
By:
Yes, "close" did have me wondering.
There's an old quiz question along the lines of, "name the British cities to have had two teams in EC semi-finals". Dundee was often the one people couldn't get. |
|
By:
Bob Shankly of course - Bill`s brother.
|
|
By:
That`s a good quiz question Nick.
 Dundee Glasgow Manchester London |
|
By:
Actually, I think the question is:
Name the cities (all nations) to have had two teams in European Cup or ECL semi-finals. |

|
By:
I would say:
Libya Iran Oman Syria I think there might be at least two countries outside the Arab League. |

By:
That makes it harder but I`ll give it a go off the top of my head.
