What a return to sheep this is.

 

[Murphy]

Tie between these two former high-street heavyweights in Q8.

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

I'm guessing 38 is bad. Perhaps I should have answered Pie & Mash for every question.

 

[Murphy]

BUT NOT THE WAY YOU CHUMPS THOUGHT! (lol)

Question 8: 8) A retailer to have gone out of business.

ACES:

Blockbusters - TrinidadsNumberOne
JJB Sports - Posh Hammer

Posh Hammer sinks faster than TomPNE94's street cred after he answered Starbucks in that truly classic Sheep season.

 

[Shrimpurh]

hahahaha COOOMMEEE ON HERE COMES SHRIMPY ON THE RETURN!

Q9 is interesting as four people instantly think 2 rather than 1, which is odd.

Question 9: 9) A radio station.

Clear winner here as JFK takes the spoils. What New York were doing naming an airport after Joe 'fucking' Kinnear, I'll never know.

Question 10: 10) An airport named after someone.

Q9 is interesting as four people instantly think 2 rather than 1, which is odd.

I don't listen to the radio so none came to mind (well Radio Norfolk but I knew no-one else was going to say that!) and I tried to cheat. According to this - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_...ms#Current_top_stations_in_the_United_Kingdom - Radio 2 is the most popular so went for that.

 

[Murphy]

We continue with normal sheep, your performance here will likely determine how well you're seeded for the Cup draws. Last season's final standings will be used to determine a separate European competition based on the knockout system used by the old European cup (although it won't be two legged as we only enough rounds).

NORMAL SHEEP!
1) A Blue Peter presenter.
2) A flop under Sir Alex Ferguson.
3) A member of the England Ashes squad 2015.
4) A Norman Wisdom film.
5) A Premier League shirt sponsor for the 2015/2016 season.
6) A Caribbean T20 team.
7) A British Eurovision act.
8) A shoe brand.
9) A coin.
10) An act that performed at Glastonbury 2015.

Deadline is 3pm Monday afternoon.

If you are going to to for a Norfolk based radio station then surely the only choice is North Norfolk Digital. The best radio station in Norfolk North Norfolk.

*bonus points for people who said University of Manchester*

Especially as Oxford and Cambridge are wrong* answers.

*Yes, I am aware that's irrelevant in this game.

 

[Aberstone]

Tough set of questions there Murphy. I like it.

 

[The Hand of Dom]

Whoops. I meant to enter this. Don't worry, Dom is back to be average.

 

[Magic]

Haven't really persisted with the forum in the last few days given its performance but looks like I should have been more proactive 'cos I'd have got a full house there I think! D'oh!

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

Especially as Oxford and Cambridge are wrong* answers.

*Yes, I am aware that's irrelevant in this game.

Why were they wrong? The question was a university, not a college, wasn't it?

 

[Veggie Legs]

But they enter as colleges, not as the university.

 

[hodge]

But the colleges make up the university and the question was which university, so any oxford college would count as oxford still.

[Stevencc]

Sheep 101 Murph, don't give them excuses or they will use them.

 

[hodge]

Screw them if they don't send answers

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

Murphy I'm not sure if anyone else has had this issue but I didn't receive a notification, even though you tagged me in that post.

 

[Ciderhead]

Sheep 101 Murph, don't give them excuses or they will use them.

Yup, from personal experience, they're all a bunch of fuckers. Don't give them a inch

Think this is a general problem when people are tagged in anything, annoyingly.
