    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.

    If you're going to be technical about it Man United are based in Stretford as opposed to Manchester as in the city.
    Good point. So that's now ten locations that hold derbies.

    It's a shame there aren't two teams in Derby, then there would be the Derby derby.

    Height and width of a full size goal?

    Whatever it is (and yes, I do know), it's obviously not big enough for our lot of strikers.

    Neil Redfearn?... Barnsley / Charlton / Bradford cant think who the other would be though

    Not redfearn. But as a clue, one of the players was relegated in teams that had him (Redfearn) in the side at the same time (Bradford and Barnsley). The player in question was also relegated with a club in the same season as redfearn was relegated with Charlton.
    Ashley Ward?
    Yep - good call.

    2 to go. Both forwards . One was absolutely abysmal in his time with us - yes I know that narrows it down (:
    Marcus Bent and Nathan Blake were the other 2

    Indeed the only team to ever retain too flight status via the play offs. Most people these days wouldn't remember the original reason for the play offs. Invented just to get Charlton out of the top flight and it failed so they changed the format.
