LOI in Europe Quiz

Depending how this goes I'll add more questions. Feel free to add your own.

1) Teams from which country have been knocked out most often by LOI sides?
2) Against which country have LOI sides scored the most goals?
3) Name the 4 ties where the eventual winners beat a LOI side?
4) What (in years) is the longest time between a LOI win in europe?
5) Who was the first Irish side to compete in a) European Cup b) Cup Winners Cup c) Fairs Cup d) UEFA Cup e) Champions League f) Intertoto g) Europa league
6) Who were the last to compete in a) Cup Winners Cup and b) Intertoto
7) Which 3 clubs have won most ties in Europe?
8) Which club has won most games in Europe? (also team with most defeats)
9) What 2 Irish sides are the only 2 to enter Europe and lose all games?
10) How many ties have been won by Irish sides in Europe?

1) Estonia must be up there? Three wins now. Spread my bets by nominating Malta (Pat's v Valletta, Sligo v Floriana, Dundalk v Hibs, Waterford too I think?).
2) Luxembourg?
3) UCD v Everton anyway (1984/85 CWC). Did some German side beat Cork or Sligo in the InterToto? The others would presumably be a fair few years ago. Did Bayern win after scraping Rovers in 66? Also, is there a similar question to be asked about the clubs Irish sides have met who were reigning holders?
4) Are we talking about winning a tie? Something like 1989/90 up to Shels' win against Sloga Jugomagnat in 2000 was the longest without winning a tie I think. There were a couple of individual wins (Derry v that Bulgarian crowd); maybe three years without winning a single game?
5) a) Drumcondra b) ? c) ? d) ? e) Shels? f) Sligo? g) Dundalk last year (v Grevenmacher)
6) a) ? b) Bohs (lost to a Baltic team?)
7) Rovers, Pat's and Dundalk (?) all on 7
8) Rovers?
9) Fingal and Galway
10) 48 or 49 I think?

1) Nope
2) Nope
3) UCD v Everton is one
4) yes, I meant ties. Shels beat the Macedonians was in 2000, before that was Sligo beating Floriana in 93. We've had longer...
5) Shels in the Champions league is the only correct answer
6) Bohs is right (lost to FK Riga)
7) Pats is one of them. other 2 wrong
8) Rovers is wrong
9) Yeah, spot on
10) Nope

5a is Rovers then presumably. Drums first in the Fairs Cup? I'll chance Waterford as the first for the CWC, and then stop making semi-random guesses and let someone else have a go. :)

Was it Cork the first team in the InterToto then? Think there was only a year or two of the 5-team groups right at the start (well, the new start; we didn't enter the 60s incarnation), and I know Cork and Sligo (and Bohs actually) were in those groups.

Are Shels and Bohs the other two teams on seven Euro wins?

1) Teams from which country have been knocked out most often by LOI sides?
I'll go for Iceland
2) Against which country have LOI sides scored the most goals?
Iceland
3) Name the 4 ties where the eventual winners beat a LOI side?
No idea of the ties but would have thought Bayern and Everton are two
4) What (in years) is the longest time between a LOI win in europe?
87 - 94
5) Who was the first Irish side to compete in a) European Cup Rovers b) Cup Winners Cup Rovers c) Fairs Cup Drumcondra d) UEFA Cup e) Champions League Shels f) Intertoto UCD g) Europa league Pats
6) Who were the last to compete in a) Cup Winners Cup Derry and b) Intertoto Cork
7) Which 3 clubs have won most ties in Europe?
Bohs, Cork and Shels
8) Which club has won most games in Europe? (also team with most defeats)
That would be Bohs
9) What 2 Irish sides are the only 2 to enter Europe and lose all games?
Galway and Fingal
10) How many ties have been won by Irish sides in Europe?
I'll guess 26

Opps. Just saw one of the answers to question 6 was Bohs. Should have remembered that. I was at the fecking match. Too many bad memories:-P

[QUOTE=Dodge;1511060]Depending how this goes I'll add more questions. Feel free to add your own.

1) Teams from which country have been knocked out most often by LOI sides?
Sweden maybe?

3) Name the 4 ties where the eventual winners beat a LOI side?
I'm guessing City losing to Bayern in 1992? probably not though

6) Who were the last to compete in a) Cup Winners Cup and b) Intertoto
Cork city for the CWC - we lost 3-2 to CSKA Kiev in 1998/99

Ajax(scratch Ajax they were runners up) one of the Q3 sides? By accident found Waterford Utd! (Played D. Tbilisi '81 CWC Cup)
Shels, Derry, Pats Q7

1) Iceland is right – We’ve knocked them out 5 times now. Malta, Sweden and Cyprus have 4 each
2) Not Iceland, and not a country we have a particularly good record against, although we’ve won last 2 ties
3) Rovers lost to Bayern in the 1966/67 season and Bayern went on to win the Cup Winners Cup
4) Not right yet.
5) European Cup = Rovers, Fairs Cup = Drumcondra, Champions League = Shels, still missing CWC, UEFA, intertoto and Europa League
6) Cork for CWC, Bohs for intertoto
7) Shels, Cork and Pats have all won 7 ties each. Rovers and Bohs on 6
8) Bohs have most individual wins and losses in Europe
9) We have Galway & Fingal
10) Not right yet but pineapple stu was closest

Is it 47 then for number 10? I was looking at this only yesterday (I'm basically a similar nerd to yourself, as you may have already guessed).

Other than that, the gaps are still numbers 2, 4 (two more ties to get) and 5 (first CWC, UEFA, TotoToto, Europa league). Just for convenience to see what's missing.

Any minute now Maribor's going to come along and decimate the place.

That's one of my favourite Blackadder facial expressions too. Up there with George biting the rose when Blackadder finds out that he's Melchett's perfect woman. :)

Edit - in fact, why waste a perfectly good opportunity to post some Blackadder? 9:15 :p

For the second question is the answer Scotland

Yeah, Scotland is right. We've scored 31 times against them (because we've played them the most times...)

Oh and Dinamo Tblisi is right. beat Waterford in the first round before going on to win the 1980/81 Cup winners Cup.

Only one missing from that now, and its in the 80s

Spurs beat Drogheda in 1983/84 UEFA Cup before beating Anderlecht in the final. Don't have my record book with me to try the rest now. Good quiz.

yeah, drogheda/spurs is right

Blackadder's expression at 8:48, every time. Also, the way George says, 'lucky us,' just before it. I could go on all day really. Sorry for hi-jacking the thread Dodge!

5) Europa League- Dundalk against the Luxemburg side

To add another question, Which 2 teams have knocked out clubs from the most countries and how many countries is it?

I'll add to this,

Which team has lost ALL their European games EXCEPT for the one they did NOT score in?
