    Putting together a quiz for a radio quiz show (temporary station run by students) and looking for 6 questions (and answers) for the sports round - need them by half eight this morning.

    So give us one off the top of your head please.

    I know I could google but I don't know where to start - I'm totally clueless about sport.

    Thanks in advance, greatly appreciated.

    ETA - A couple with an Irish angle would be great. :)

    I'm not a huge sports guy, but I'm one of the few still awake so I'll try to help. ;)

    I'm not sure how difficult you want the questions to be, so I'm just going to throw out a couple of links which you can use as inspiration.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Maguire_Cup
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Ireland_national_football_team

    That should cover the Irish questions.

    I'll have a think about the others, but I wanted to post first to reassure you that you have some help. :)


    Edit:
    Questions 3, 4, 7 and maybe 9 are good here:
