How to play

Pub Football Trivia is nine football quiz games in one free web app — no download, no sign-up, built for one phone at a pub table. Every game runs on real football data: over 27,000 players and 160,000+ season stat lines across the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, the Bundesliga, European cups and more, so every answer is checkable and every argument settleable.

Each game takes seconds to learn: pick a competition and an era, then name players, fill boards and settle scores. Wrong guesses are free in most games, a small daily pool of hints keeps the stubborn answers honest, and every game works solo or with a table full of mates — one person hosts from their phone and the table competes. Pick a game below for the full rules and tips.

Which one should you start with?

Top 10 is the front door. Everyone understands a ranked list, everyone has an opinion about who’s on it, and wrong guesses cost nothing — so a table can talk its way through a board without anyone feeling examined. Career Path is the one that gets the biggest reaction in a group, because a career unrolling club by club turns into a race between whoever recognises the shape of it first. Name the League is the one to pick if you want the room loud: it’s on a clock, and the last three clubs in any season are agony.

Head to Head and 501 are the two that work best one-on-one — both are built around a back-and-forth rather than a shared board. Stat XI, Starting 11 and Played for All reward the person at the table who reads squad lists for fun. On Target is the oddity: a band to land in rather than a name to get right, so being roughly correct is a skill in itself.

Things that apply to every game

You pick a competition and an era before you start, so a game is only ever as obscure as you asked for. Typing is forgiving — the search box copes with misspellings, common nicknames and the accents no phone keyboard offers. Hints come from a small daily pool, shared across the table in multiplayer, and buy you a clue rather than the answer: you still type the name. Finishing anything counts towards your streak, whatever you scored.
