The Ciderspace Grand Christmas Quiz - General Knowledge Questions


Welcome to the Ciderspace Grand Christmas Quiz! The Quiz is open for anyone to enter, whether you are a Yeovil Town fan or not. There are 50 multiple-choice questions to answer, 25 questions on general football knowledge and 25 questions on the Mighty Glovers. You are free to submit entries to either section of the Quiz, or both; so it's possible we eventually end up with three winners: The General Knowledge section winner, the YTFC section winner; and the Overall winner.

No prizes (unless some kind person donates something), the only reasons for entering are to show off your footballing knowledge and, well, because it's Christmas! This is the kind of thing people do at Christmas, so get on with it. Entries will be accepted up until 6pm 30th December and results announced as soon as possible in the New Year. Good luck and may the best person win.
