The name game.

Post by bfccrazy » Fri Mar 01, 2019 11:15 pm

Started a game on a whatsapp group that we got quite far into then have come stuck a little - it’d Be something a few on here would enjoy too I think.

Aim is to get from A>Z using footballers names but carrying on from the last players surname as the first letter.

I’ll start with a few to get us going so you can see how to add a player.

Ashley Barnes
Brian Clough
Clint Dempsey

.....

(We’re stuck at TU)

Very few with U as the first letter in the surname.

Obviously David Unsworth for us and I remember a keeper called Norman Uprichard who played for Arsenal.

But trying to recall one with a christian name beginning with T is a tough one.

You better send these answers to the makers of University Challenge, they've had two LM name questions in the past few weeks.
