Name the League

Name every club against the clock.

Name the League is the sprint of the nine games: a league and a season are shown, and the clock is already running. Name every club that played in that division that year — that's it, that's the game. The first dozen come out in a rush; the last three are a special kind of agony (there's always one promoted side that's vanished from your memory entirely).

Wrong guesses are free and the clock is the only pressure, so the skill is method: work the table top to bottom, then the relegated sides, then the ghosts. A hint reveals a club's first letter if you'd rather burn a resource than seconds.

Old seasons are the real test — the further back you go, the more the bottom half of the table turns to fog. Anyone can do last season; the 1998–99 First Division sorts the room out.

How to play

  1. A league and season are shown — name every club that played in it that year.
  2. Correct clubs lock in; wrong guesses are free.
  3. Name them all before the clock runs out.
From the coach

Clock's ticking — rattle off every club in the division before time's up. Wrong guesses are free.

Good to know

It’s you if you think you can still recite the 2003–04 Premier League from memory.
