Dafuge had a really solid week, cementing his place in the top half and keeping in distance of the top spot but he's got the likes of SnakeXe to catch up with who put in an equally solid round after a howler last week.

And HotChocolate is off the bottom!

I've sent Ri some answers, it's up to him whether he wants to count them. Looking at the spoilers after, my girlfriend and I got four right, and also knew the tallest building was in Dubai, but didn't know what it was called.

Thanks for checking my marking, as we both came up with that I assume it's right :)

Very close with your guess for 8 daf, you're thinking along the right lines but the player you guessed won his first in the same final that the player I'm looking for won his second :thup:

That's a really interesting one, after trying to figure out who the first club might have been, then thought of who might have played for a second CL winning side, the guy I was thinking of guessing surely wouldn't have been the only non-national, so real brain-worker that one.

Sent. At first glance there seemed at least half I'd probably get, and while I knew a few easily, I reckon there were also some 'close but no cigar' moments involved. Had a stab at 8 even though I knew it probably can't be, but spent a lot of time thinking about the other possibilities.

Interested to see your question, Nobby! And surprised so few people have got my one on that subject correct.

DBurns has actually come close to the answer for 10 - I didn't give him the point though, especially as I already gave him the benefit of the doubt on a couple of others.

I checked it out as soon as I sent in my answers, couldn't believe I got so close to it!

Surely worth a point! :p

I just want to make sure everyone knows, I'm not cheating. I really am this bad. SnakXe dropped quite a few places after being the QC. Next week though, it's Nobby's turn (hands up if you're excited)
