Random Quiz

Post by mapperleywhite »

No googling/Wiki etc or else it's pointless please!

1. Burnley's Ashley Barnes is in the headlines for his X-rated challenge on Chelsea's Matic at the weekend. He has represented a country at international level, and it's none of the home countries nor Ireland. Which is it?

2. Mr £39 breakfast Ian Duncan Smith made history by being the first Catholic to lead the conservatives. He was also the first leader of any party to have an ethnic minority background originating from his maternal great grandmother. Which country was she from?

3. A bit nearer home...John, the son of England World Cup winner Nobby Stiles, played for Leeds during the 80's. What is his current profession?

Answers before the Watford game.
Might have to take an interest in the Premier League now....

3 is definitely an after dinner speaker / comedian because I tried to book him for a Nottingham Whites dinner once but he was too expensive for us unfortunately. He works a lot with Kenny Burns & the 2 charge over £1500 for the night.
