Footie Trivia Question of the Week
"Since 1990, five Premiership or Football League grounds ending with the word "Road" have ceased to exist (they've snuffed it and gone to meet their makers; they are ex-grounds). Name as many as you can and the clubs who used to play there."
Good luck!

Maine Road - Citeh
Was that a ground? The name sounds familiar.
Well in, MUR - that was the one that I remembered. The other four are trickier. Good start!
I actually know this. I got four out of five very quickly. I didn't know the fifth
Should I keep shtuum?
No, mate - go for it!
Brisbane Road - Leyton Orient
Layer Road- Colchester United
Leeds Road - Huddersfield Town
What kind of a name was that for a stadium?
Layer Road and Leeds Road are correct
The other one I knew is Highfield Road… Coventry City
The last one I had no idea… I know it now
Brisbane Road is incorrect. Orient wanted it be… they wanted the Olympic Stadium
All four of those are correct - that is:
Maine Road - Citeh
Layer Road - Colchester
Leeds Road - Hudders
Highfield Road - Coventry
Brisbane isn't correct according to Auntie Beebs. It's a toughie but I'll give you a chance to think about it before I reveal it.
It is? Orient used to play there . Are you sure?
I read about Moyes. The sacking is not yet official. It's highly likely, but not definite. I hope this isn't too good to be true. Giggsy will probably be interim manager, but I would have preferred Nocito. Names being mentioned on a permanent basis are Kloppety Klopp and Diego Simeone. How about Pochettino at Sotton? He would be right for the job.
Orient STILL play there
The final answer is (which I didn't know)
Sealand Road.. Chester City
Burnley have just beaten Wigan two nil
PREMIER LEAGUE BOUND… OFFICIAL
Congrats UWS! I would have never guessed. Also, Stevenage relegated to league 2
Congrats UWS on Pompey being safe!
BUGGER!!! MATT DERBYSHIRE HAS SCORED FOR FOREST IN THE FIRST MINUTE AT ER!
SORRY BOB.
BLOODY HELL !!! MAT DERBYSHIRE SCORES HIS AND FORESTS SECOND.
REALLY SORRY BOB.
All present and correct, UWS - Sealand Road, Chester was the final answer. Well done, chaps!
