To your last one - Hull. I didn't even Google that or know it beforehand. Quietly pleased with myself.

And my thunder is stolen

It is a cracking question to work out by yourself. My friend managed to get it in about a minute, was in shock!

Have a difficult one for you guys : a team who has exactly the same crest as Everton. (Hint : a player played for the same two teams). Good luck

Got a question that i don't know the answer to. Has there been a match in this seasons (12/13) Premier League where someone has been subbed on and off in the same game? Cheers.

Champions League starting elevens from 1992 to 2012 http://www.sporcle.com/games/pbysr/starting11

I got 173 out of 242 which seeing as I was born in 1995 I think is pretty good.

United had already used their 3 subs by the time Rooney went off injured, so technically wasn't a sub.

Righto, that was an easy one to start with.

10 players have scored 20 or more goals in the Premier League whose full name contains all of the vowels. Name them.

Okay, with 5 left I'll give ya a hint - 4 of them have been capped at least once by their respective national team's first squad and are not English/British, while the other one has played for 3 different Chinese clubs.

So does Fellaini, Diouf, etc - the letter Y can be regarded as both a vowel and a consonant.

Oh and Sami Toumas Hyypiä

No "e".

Emile William Ivanhoe Heskey

When they said "full name", I guess they didn't exactly mean it - otherwise Eduardo César Daude Gaspar, Rodrigo Juliano Lopes de Almeida and every other Brazilian/Portuguese around would have been the obvious answer
