Quiz
There are few of us who can
resist the challenge of a good football quiz
question. So now's your chance!
The Branch Quiz team competes against other APFSCIL
supporters' clubs in football quizzes in and around the Greater
London area and is always on the lookout for new team
members.
The new format is simply that of a pub quiz with all teams
competing against each other every quiz night, there are no
longer matches against individual opposition; teams consist of
3-6 players answering 4 rounds of written questions on
football. So there are no 'individual' questions -
all team members are able to contribute to the
answers.
As far as the
Sunderland squad is concerned, if 4 turn up we play with
4, if 6 turn up we play with 6, if 7 turn up only 6 can
play but I will make every effort to accommodate any
newcomer. Who knows, we may soon be able to operate our
own squad system and, most importantly, quiz
nights offer the chance to drink beer and talk about
football.
The results are
based entirely on the scores each quiz night.
There is talk of aggregating the scores over the
season but that idea remains on hold, however there may
be a secondary scoring system of ‘Formula 1 points ’ so
that the winners get 10 points, second place 8 etc and
these would be aggregated over the season with trophies
to be awarded accordingly.
So, newcomers would
be very welcome. Venues will vary, but will always be in
central London. Food is often provided [but not
much].
