Some of these have been on the site before but following Legion's advice I am bringing them to Heroes Discussion in the hope of gaining a wider audience.
Stick any Villa or non-Villa trivia quizzes in here. Sporcle.com is a good place to find/create them, we can also include Sky's 'Missing Men' in here rather than starting a new thread each time.
The latest Villa Missing Men is here... Liverpool 0 Villa 1, 1999 (http://www.skysports.com/fun_games/missingmen/0,20922,13024_6556416,00.html)
Here are some quizzes I have made...
Villa players of the 2000's (http://www.sporcle.com/games/cdvillafan/villaplayers2000s)
Villa players of the 1990's (http://www.sporcle.com/games/cdvillafan/villaplayers90s)
All-time Football League clubs (http://www.sporcle.com/games/cdvillafan/footballleagueclubs)
John Burridge's clubs (http://www.sporcle.com/games/cdvillafan/budgie)
Here is one Rich6by7 has made...
Bottom of the league clubs (http://www.sporcle.com/games/rich6by7/RockBottom).
It is best to do Rich's one before my Football League one or it will give all the answers away.
Legion, fancy stickying this?

Thanks, Alan.

Ouch ... 35 on the player's of 2000 quiz. I should of done much better than that ... granted I've only followed the team for about 4 years ... but still there were about 19 guys I've at least heard of, but couldn't get.
In my defense though ... I spent 15 mintues trying to spell Agbonglahor and Delfouneso alone. Actually had Djembe-Djembe right, but forgot the dash ... and when I missed it, I gave up trying to spell it. I had Carson, McCann and Maloney on the tip of the tounge, but couldn't remember the last name.

On that I got into the seventies but forgot one current player. The current player whose name I have on my shirt.
:doh:

Villa 5 - 1 Birmingham (http://www.football365.com/fun/games/missingmen/0,21276,13272,00.html)
Made a little bit harder due to them getting one of the players completely wrong.
Edit: They've now changed it and taken Albrighton out of the team.
-
I got it in 1:38, I forgot Zat bloody Knight didn't I, bah!
-
I got it in 1:38, I forgot ***********, bah!
Oi! No bloody spoilers!
1 minute 28.
-
1min 30.
Would have been much, much quicker had it not struggled to accept my attempts to put in the 9 lettered midfield player.
-
Finally! One I could actually do! 2:30 ... but most of that was struggling with spelling. :P
-
1.12
Would've been about 45secs if I hadn't had a brain fart on the left back!
-
4:36 due to the fact that the bloody thing kept breaking and not accepting my answers.
oh and I forgot our bloody centre right midfielder. You know, the one who's picture you took with your son in Bulgaria that year. Ye gods i'm developing Altzheimers!

Found this really good one... Link. (http://www.sporcle.com/games/Cestrian/fjortoft_twice_as_good_as_henry)
You have to name the top three top-flight scorers for every club to have played in the top division. I manager 74/192 including, thankfully, all three Villa ones.

Blimey, that's a tricky one.
Well done to anyone getting the three Glossop players.
-
I got 65, including one of the Glossop players.
However about 30 of them were just me typing in random surnames!

My latest one, name every team to have made the last eight of the European Cup.

Great game!
I got 106 of 128.
Armenia has one representative?!?! I guess that must be ages ago.
-
I got 106 too.
I got the Armenian team but forgot Real Madrid - D'oh!

They would've been part of the USSR when the relevant team qualified.

The Armenian team were Soviet champions 1973 - I am sad enough to know that off the top of my head but I did check it before posting on here!

Another Villa Missing Men...
Link (http://www.skysports.com/fun_games/missingmen/0,20922,13024_6987077,00.html).
The 2-2 fuck up against Small Heath. Eventually got them all in 2 minutes 50. Would've been quicker but my internet connection was slow.
-
That one was trickier than I thought. Four minutes 33 seconds for me.
