Who were the last Premier League team (i.e. playing in it at the time) to meet Chester in a competitive match?

FA Cup, January 2001. Blackburn 2 - 0 Chester. Graham v Graeme(Barrow v Souness). We were robbed, and flags were confiscated at the turn stiles - more robbery! Apparently the plastic poles constituted a dangerous weapon!
Whatever happened to that black and white kit?

I think they went up to the Premier League at the end of that season. |

I give up on the Premier League team question, so look forward to the answer. Meanwhile, name five teams with nickname "The Magpies" who have played competitively at Chester's ground.

Chorley and Notts County. Does it have to be the current ground? We played Newcastle at Sealand Road but not the Deva. |

They will have done by 24th. September. Apologies with what was a post dated question, but I am bored with preseason! Just one club to go. |

I think they went up to the Premier League at the end of that season. Correct, even though it was only six years after Blackburn won the Premier League they were playing in Division One (now the Championship) at the time. Villa is the correct answer. |

Who is (as far as I know) the only Asian-born player to have played for Chester? I'm really showing my age here but I remember in the 50s we had a winger called Nelson Stiffle who was Indian. |

Go back to the era of 1920-30 and Chester FC were nicknamed 'The Magpies'.
Also, my dad would tell me of the lightening quick pace of Nelson Stiffle.

Who is the only English player to have started a Champions League final but to have never won an England cap? Wild guess... David May? |

No, May was actually an unused substitute in 1999 yet seemed to be front and centre of every celebratory photograph.

That's the one. Started Liverpool's defeat to Milan in Athens in 2007.

Is that definitely a champions league final, as opposed to a European cup final?
