Morning all
With sincere apologies for my absence over the summer thus far, it's time to get back to some quizzing in advance of our first season back in the National League.
And, what better way to do that, than have a quiz featuring our league opponents for the next nine months.
Yes, over the next five weeks of summer, I'll be taking you on a mystery trip around the country, visiting five clubs from the National League along the way. I'm expecting some big points scores here, as you only have 23 teams to choose from as it is!
We'll be starting our trip at EP, and I'll give you a clue each day as to Friday's destination. The usual points rules apply. Then at the start of each new week, we'll be heading off from the ground we visited the week before.
As ever, the five clubs should lead you to some bonus points, but I'm not saying any more than that, as the quiz is easy enough already, but let's just say it's typically Sandy-esque! Again, the usual bonus points apply.
Simples. Let's get started.

Time's up.
Our first stop is Barrow.
No one scored fewer than 3 points in our opening week, so it's still all to play for. That said, full credit to Maccy and Downy for a correct guess on the first day:
1= Downy 5 Maccy 5 3= BBLW 4 Eppers 4 Gazz 4 6= Archie 3 Ceefer 3 Market Harborough 3
See you Monday for Week 2.
