It was touch and go for a while there, but after three days without I now have lights, heat, and more importantly to the task at hand, internet access! Were it not for that last one this week’s answers I would have had to send telegrams to each and every reader to reveal the answers [...]

New England Revolution v. New York Red Bulls (Friday) Apparently the Revs are still in the market for an attacking Designated Player, but that won’t happen until the transfer window opens at the end of the month.

Participation in the Thursday Challenge dropped off a bit this week with only Harry J. and Keith C. submitting answers by the deadline.

Nine full-sized pitches will fit inside Great Strahov Stadium I’m not sure why, but this was one of my favorite challenges to construct- I hope that everyone had a good time trying to find the answers.

Where are the luxury boxes? My only goal with this week’s challenge is to live up to the expectations that Andrew B. created with his guest appearance last week and I like to think that I’ve done so with the questions below. So, get to your cubicle, fire up your Amstrad CPC464 and get to [...]

Andrew answered seven of the questions correctly, we are currently engaged in a polite discussion about two other questions (we might both be right!), [...]
