Thanks this week go to $hifty for the questions.

The point of the game is pretty simple. In a PM to me, answer each of the 10 questions below.

Try to think of the most popular answer.

If you need to comment or clarify a question then do it in thread please. And if you could reply once you've sent a PM it'd keep the thread alive Thanks!

Write your answers like this...

Do not repeat the questions, no full-stops at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. Thanks.

JUST LIKE THIS:

1. Dr Maria O' Brien
2. Kathy Wells
3. XXXX

Those who don't reply like this will be ignored.

The game will end when we have 40 entrants or after 5 days, whichever comes first.

Please, no full-stops after the answers and put a space in between the 1. and the answer ok?

1. Name a famous football stadium outside of Ireland and UK.

2. Name a Sport in which the participants do not wear any footwear.

3. Name a famous racehorse (living or deceased).

4. Name a European provincial Rugby team (excluding the Irish ones).

5. Name a sport in which there are only 2 players per team.

6. Name the most famous Irish sportsperson of all time (living or deceased). (this will be a matter of opinion but try to guess who you think everyone else will pick, should be interesting)

7. Name a sport which has more than one referee on the field at all times (linesmen in Soccer don't count).

8. Name a sportsperson famous for being banned for taking drugs.

9. Other than Lance Armstrong OR any Irish cyclists, name somebody who has won the Tour de France.

10. Name a League of Ireland 1st division soccer side (not the premier division).

Actually 2nd...I got there first

Question 6 is going to get a lot of interesting answers I think. I put down who I think is the most famous Irish sportsstar in the world. I'm sure that some will give replies that they think are famous but aren't known outside of their village

Pm sent. What'd I do last time?

Do NOT ask me how I define the terms "man", "woman", "male" or "female" when you reply to this post. You know the answer and it's probably irrelevant to the discussion :)

Most of those questions were ok, but I couldn't think of anything for Q.7! Ended up with a fairly obscure answer.

Answers done!

Just waiting on a PM from Zane Obnoxious Guava (who set the questions) to decide if it's a tie or if we have one clear winner, depending on how a certain answer is classed.
