Fiendish Festive Football Quiz

edited December 2018 in Other Football and Sports
It's tough, but I think that together you can make it. 92 questions, the answer to each one is a different league club.

One answer per post please and allow time for others to have a chance. First correct answers get a like. Incorrect answers get a lol. Repeat answers will be ignored. Multiple answers within a post will be ignored. I'll keep the tally, there's no prize other than the chance to win the title Fiendish Festive Football Quiz Champion. Good Luck.
