7:

Middlesborough
Scunthorpe
West Ham

West Ham are therefore called The Hammers because of the Thames Ironworks not geographical location. I was at college at what is now The University of East London and lived in college flats at Memorial Avenue near West Ham Station, site of the West Ham Stadium before The Boleyn. Used to get loads of away fans wandering round looking for the ground!! Sorry mate, closed in 1900, you want Upton Park station! :lol:

 

[Southampton Hake]

15. Borussis Monchengladbach possibly, I seem to recall they played in green shirts v Liverpool in the European Champions Final some years back. Saw them on the screen recently and white was their colours.

 

[sverigegreen]

All correct just the Exeter question to go.
I cannot believe people don't know this.
Perhaps you just think the affairs of that lot up the road just aren't important enough to make the effort.
If that is so I commend you.

Clue if requested
