    A real challenge..

    http://www.sporcle.com/games/Thats_a...d-in-europe-ii

    Naming every club that a LOI team has played in European competition. I scored a pretty desperate 44.

    Not sure if this is the right forum for this, please move if not.

    Martinho, if you click "give up" below the timer it will reveal all the answers.

    Yeah I was frustrated by the spellings a few times too. But I have total sympathy for the quiz-maker, it would take a lifetime to write in all the possible spellings of such an awkward group of 179 teams.

    55, but I'm counting it as 58, because I couldn't spell Djurgardens IF, or Cwmbran Town, and it wouldn't let me have Hibernians (the Maltese ones), for some reason

    I gave up at about 65. Tough quiz, good one though.
