Football Trivia Question of the Day (continued)

[the god Gerry Gow]

Bryon Butler

Him and Jones were simply outstanding. Make today's look like bloody amateurs

 

[George Hannah]

Brooking?

No not Trevor, possibly the best radio commentator of a very talented bunch, none of them ex-players tho'

With my limited knowledge of Radio commentators my last answer is Jon Champion.

he's still going on TV - and rabidly anti City like most of them - so no, the bloke I'm after is pre 5Live - you're maybe just too youthful to get this ;-)

sorry I missed the correct answer before - apologies to the god Gerry Gow - it was indeed the inimitable Bryon Butler when a mere 3,231 fans watch Wimbledon's home game against Luton Town in 1991 - the lowest postwar attendance at a First Division game. He also famously said "fifty two thousand people here at Maine Road tonight but it seems like fifty thousand,"

next question

Which current league club has changed its name six times?

 

[Falastur]

I know that City changed their name four times, but I don't think we ever reached six. I know Arsenal had a few different variants though, so I'd guess them?

 

[Vienna_70]

Leyton Orient?

Quess - Brighton and Hove Albion ? Must have changed at some point due to 2 towns being involved.

Leyton Orient?

Well done - that's the club - Eagle CC Football Team in 1886 then Orient FC in 1888, Clapton Orient in 1898, Leyton Orient in 1945, Orient in 1966 and then back to Leyton Orient in 1987.

Isn't that only five changes?

they were originally formed as Glyn CC in 1881, so it's six.
