    It's about to get better ;)

    Scores after question 7:

    JGF now is the sole leader as Heidi slips up. Still holding a two point lead whilst EN slide tackles his way into third place a further point behind.

    BuileBeag and Strawbs just below that another point back...

    Jesus, I didn't think I'd be doing this badly. Honestly, if I had given Chiangmai United or Koln FC as an answer for every question in this quiz I'd be doing better than I am now having actually put some thought into the answers.
