Sometimes easy is nice! It's pretty rare that I get 100% correct on a sports quiz! Feeling proud of myself, even though I really just named major English cities.

I'm Australian and I probably know more about the Premier League than England itself (hence my account name). I officially apologise that I repeatedly tried Chelsea, Everton and Aston Villa

Very close together geographically, not too dissimilar culturally but you'd risk a stabbing if you were to conflate the two in front of a Magpies supporter or a Black Cats supporter.

About 10 miles between the two city centres. They are not part of the same single conurbation.

Both places are insulted by the suggestion! Birmingham and West Brom (in the Black Country) may have merged into each other physically, but remain different places with different dialects that have a strong rivalry.

West Bromwich is in Sandwell, which is adjacent to, but separate from, Birmingham.

If you were to consider Greater Manchester like Greater London, then there would be other clubs such as Oldham, Rochdale, Salford and Bolton.

Nov 1, 2020
But then you'd have to say Wolves, West Brom, Walsall and Coventry are in with Villa and Blues, and with Sheffield you'd have to include Barnsley, Donny and Rotherham. Leeds/Bradford/Huddersfield, etc.

OTOH I don't think it's really sensible to say you have to play in City of London to be a London team. Would be a short list

Yeah Notts County are now playing a second season in the National League. They got relegated in 2019, and lost to NL play off final last year to Harrogate, going ok for now this year though.

Thanks! I'm not counting Greater Manchester though, just the City of Manchester, and Salford is it's own city. Otherwise we'd have Wigan, Oldham, Rochdale, Bolton. And I'm local enough to know a Salfordian doesn't want to be known as a Manc.

Having been on this site ages, I still haven’t quite got round to making a quiz myself yet but thought it could be interesting to make one like this but by county rather than by city. I’m guessing I’d get all the usual objections though. Clubs in Birmingham area would be pretty straightforward as they’d mostly fall square in West Midlands. But then you’d have all the North West guys arguing over whether their particular club falls within Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Merseyside etc. Local identity politics in the UK is fairly daft. I’ve been at a comedy show where the guy mentioned Southend (my home town) and still gave a little cheer, even though I know fully well that it’s a shitebox and I left ten years ago!

Have a go at one Richie, it's just for fun after all. I've a few other football ones, including a football clubs in Yorkshire quiz. You're right though, Yorkshire (as a whole) is the only one with enough teams people wouldn't moan at. I live near Wigan and people still go on about being in Lancashire, or people from St Helens wondering why they're classed as Merseyside - It gets daft!

I legitimately tried a variety of ways to spell "Nottingham" for a minute, thought I have lost my mind, then googled just to realize that Notts County got relegated 5 years ago

Ha, I've done that on quizzes, when I'm convinced the answer should be there but I mustn't be spelling it right! Yeah they went and they've struggled to get back up since, been nearly men though, lost in the play offs this last season to eventual winners Grimsby by a 90+6th winner equaliser goal, then lost in extra time.

Could you make a pedants version? e.g.

Manchester United are in Salford which is a different city to Manchester.

Nottingham Forest are not in the City of Nottingham

I've lived in four of these cities and always thought of a cross town rivalry as the norm, didn't realise that it is only the case in 8 cities in total. Leeds is the only place I've lived in the UK that didn't have at least two clubs and that seemed odd to me.
