I suppose ask a silly question

The pictures are clues e.g. black cats, nickname of Sunderland

Goodwatch · 13 September 2008, 05:54 AM

Ah, the cannon = Arsenal.

interesting to note that the Gunners have such an elevated position in the picture compared with their North London rivals

I have to admit to googleing some of what i thought the answers were to see if there was a team.

Only a few though.

It is not cheating but using the divine powers bestowed upon me, tosser!

We say Sparta. Not Sparta Rotterdam. There's only one Sparta so 'Rotterdam' is superfluous. Sparta are the oldest football team in The Netherlands, established in 1888. They are referred to as 'the gentlemen's club' and the arch rivals (in Rotterdam) of Feyenoord.

jdc · 13 September 2008, 07:27 AM

Pool could also be Hartlepool, has anyone worked out what is on the floor behind the boys underneath the window?

jdc · 13 September 2008, 08:42 AM

Mopsey guessed the image on the right of the window was Crystal Palace or could be Oxford (gleaming spire)
