Nil Satis is Everton.  Arte Et Labore is Blackburn.  Audere, is that Spurs?  I have a feeling it is...  Dunno the other one.

1:  Wigan and Oldham for certain.  After that, it's a bit hazy.  I'd say Wolves, Derby and Coventry?

3:  Everton, Spurs, Blackburn, ???

1) 5 teams

4) 8 players

Unlikely Hart played in an FA Cup final between 2000 and 2010 mate.

1) Nope.

What do you mean, nope?  None of them??

Thinking about it, Oldham were in Division 1 for a season before the Prem started and were relegated the season after, so that's not right.  But surely Wigan never finished in the top half?

Unlikely, Bluey.  I'm going to keep plugging away at the first one.  So ruling out the ones we've already had...

Crystal Palace
Bolton Wanderers
Hull City
Sheffield United

And I'm sticking with Wolves, I'm sure they haven't.
