How many Chester players past and present have had palindromic surnames (same backwards as forwards)?
I can think of:
Ross Hannah
Angus Eve
Karl Noon (trialist)
Reply with any others, or whatever bits of football trivia, quiz questions and other miscellany you can think of.

When was the last time, if ever, that a team got promoted with a negative goal difference. Huddersfield -2 this season.

How many players have played for both Wrexham and Chester?
Bonus points if you name anyone that has scored in the Derby?
Has anyone ever scored in both derbies?

Jay Harris, Anthony Barry, Sean Newton, Paul Rutherford, Blaine Hudson, Johnny Hunt, ''John Rooney'', Elliott Durrell, Danny O'Brien? Paul Linwood. I've named a few players from my time off the top of my head. I hope I got a few right 🔵🔴. I can remember Paul Linwood, Hudson and Rooney scoring in the Derby. |

What is the worst football quiz question ever asked?
For me the one below (and a true story) made me smile
Years ago, I walked in my local and a guy asked me to name 4 players who played for England whose name had oo (double o) in. I immediately said Bobby Moore. He looked crestfallen and said "OK, there's 5".
Cant remember who the others were apart from Peter Osgood, may well be more now

I think Dover is slightly more east Yes, Dover is slightly more Easterly than Norwich, but in terms of league clubs Norwich is the most Eastern. Well done Hbomb for getting the other two correct. No prizes I'm afraid but you can be quite proud of that 👏. |

Not sure if any team has ever been promoted with one before but I remember Norwich finishing third in the first Premier League season and qualifying for Europe with a negative GD. |
