Not sure where this should go but this seems as good a place as any:

Well you'd imagine McGinn being 5th, and if we have a really, really good run he could be 3rd....

Just walking through the old town is a joy to be honest. Cross the river by the bear enclosure and have a pint in the old tram depot. You can get tram tickets from the machines at the stops, you can’t buy once you’re on the tram. There’s also a viewing point behind the parliament building which you can’t miss and has great views https://altestramdepot.ch/en/Info/Restaurant

77%. I could have sworn I answered the Young Boys one right and it said it was wrong.

Worked for me when I chose the correct country, it was more the question like how many games did Sturm Graz win last season that I was getting the wrong answers on.

I picked the wrong country first but had changed it to the correct one before I clicked on choose. Oh well, a win tonight and all this will be a distant memory

I was just about to post that, it would have been here as well!

It's a good read.
