    What goal line technology was used for the first time in the first ever FA cup final in 1872?
    How was this improved in 1882?

    String for a bar.

    Solid bar.
    Almost - tape replacing string.

    Yep.

    True, in 1946 when the Bastard failed to award 8 penalties to the runners-up :wink:
  • First two correct. Danny Rose is too recent. Try an older one.

    Both English born. Were they both born in greater Manchester?
  • First two British players to have picked up winners medals and losers medals playing for two different clubs in the European Cup Final ,name the players and four clubs concerned.

    Clarke (or possibly Gray) - Leeds and Forest (possibly Villa)

    Neal, Thompson and Kennedy ×2 would do this for Liverpool but I think Keegan would achieve it first for Liverpool and Hamburg.

    Largest English city never to have a football league team?

    Canterbury?
    It's Wakefield
    Chelmsford has a larger population than Wakefield.
  • Which are the 8 English towns or cities that could host league derby matches (assuming both teams were in the same division)?

    Stoke
    Manchester
    Liverpool
    London
    Birmingham

    Nottingham
    Bristol
    Sheffield

    Forest aren't in Nottingham, they are in West Bridgford. So if County versus Forest is a derby, so is Forest versus County, meaning West Bridgford also hosts a derby, making that nine towns/cities.

    Mmm... well that casts a doubt over London (no one plays in the city) , as well as the aforementioned Manchester derby, also Stoke as Port Vale play in Burslem...
