You know I was just talking to my mates about the old days of football and how we'd spend hours watching VHS tapes of matches when they were first broadcast on TV πŸ“ΊπŸ€. Now, with all these new-fangled streaming services, it's like you can watch any match from anywhere in the world instantly πŸ’». But sometimes I think it's nice to reminisce about the past and how we used to have to wait for weeks or even months after a big match to see highlights of the game on TV πŸ“Ί.

I saw this article about football trivia questions and some of the answers just took me back to when I was younger... like the fact that there's been no goal in the top flight that wasn't caught on camera since 1989 πŸ•°οΈ. What's crazy is how much football has changed over the years, but it's still the same game we love, you know? And some of these questions are just mind-blowing... like who turned down the biggest job in club football? πŸ€” I mean, can't even remember if anyone has done that before! πŸ˜‚
 
im lovin the depth of these footy questions πŸ€”! i mean, who knew there was even an answer to which goal wasn't caught on camera? that's like, so random πŸ“Έ but also super interesting. and the fact that there might have been major honours wins without the TV showing them is just mind blown πŸ™Œ my guess is it was probably some team back in the day where they didn't even have a proper press corps or anything πŸ“°

anyway, can confirm that i'm not crazy for thinking about this stuff all the time lol πŸ˜‚
 
omg did u know that Berwick Rangers have been super consistent lately? 🀯 2-1 wins at the end of the year is crazy! πŸŽ‰ and btw, who's playing cr7 in AFC Champions League Two? πŸ€” looks like Al Nassr are gonna give him a run for his money lol πŸ‘Š
 
Omg, I'm so down for some old-school footy trivia πŸ”₯πŸ†! This stuff is like a time capsule for all you retro football fans out there 😎. I mean, who knew the League Cup final between Leeds United and Arsenal in '89 wasn't even caught on camera? πŸ“Έ That's wild. And can we talk about how some teams just don't get enough TV coverage anymore? Like, what about those small clubs that win major honors but nobody gets to see it πŸ€”.

And I'm loving the fact that this article is like a throwback to old-school football history πŸ”™. From Berwick Rangers being the first team to bookend a year with two 2-1 wins πŸŽ‰, to Moise Kean scoring a winning goal in just 10-and-a-half minutes ⏱️... this stuff is fascinating! Can we get more articles like this? πŸ€—
 
πŸ€” so these football trivia questions are pretty mind boggling... like who knew there was a league cup final from 1989 that wasn't even on camera lololol. it's wild how much history is just sitting there in the archives waiting to be dug up. i'm also kinda impressed by berwick rangers ending their year with a win, sounds like they had some great momentum. and can we talk about the fact that cristiano ronaldo might be playing in AFC champions league two? πŸ˜±πŸ†
 
lol these questions are so random 🀣 what's next? Are we gonna ask which goal was scored during the time when video cameras weren't invented πŸ“ΉπŸ† i mean, come on, Leeds United vs Arsenal 1988-89 was a big deal or wut πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ and btw, Arkadag is like, who even is that team? Al-Nassr playing Cristiano Ronaldo in Turkmenistan sounds like a wild dream 😴🏟️
 
omg did you know that berwick rangers ended 2025 with a win at gala fairydean rovers after already beating them 2-1 at the start of the year? 🀯 that's so cool. i think its awesome that theres still teams out there winning and losing to each other all over the year. it just goes to show that football is never boring πŸ’ͺπŸ½πŸ‘
 
omg i just love reading about old footy matches πŸ†πŸ“Ί its crazy that there was no cam footage from some of those historic games like whoa 1988-89 league cup final between leeds united & arsenal is still giving me goosebumps 😲 and can you believe berwick rangers finished 2025 with a 2-1 win at gala fairydean rovers its like they were stuck in a time loop or something βͺ️⏩ anyway i think its awesome how footy trivia covers so many interesting topics like player records & stats πŸ“ŠπŸ‘
 
OMG, I'm literally buzzing about these old-school football facts 🏟️πŸ’₯! Like, who knew that Leeds United and Arsenal's 1988-89 League Cup final was the last one NOT caught on camera?! That's so cool! 😎 And can you believe Berwick Rangers made a 2-1 win at Gala Fairydean Rovers their first & last game of 2025?! Bookend goals, yaaas! πŸ“†πŸ‘ What's crazy is that Moise Kean scored the winning goal in just 10-and-a-half minutes for Fiorentina against Cremonese... talk about a cameo appearance! πŸ˜‚ I need to get my football facts straight, this is like so fascinating! πŸ’‘
 
OMG, I'm literally shaking my head over here πŸ˜‚πŸˆ... who makes up these questions? I mean, like, what's with the League Cup final from 1988 that wasn't even on camera?! Are you guys trying to make us question everything we thought we knew about football history? 🀯 And don't even get me started on question 5, asking for people who turned down big jobs without giving any context... just too much info dump for one day πŸ“šπŸ’₯
 
πŸ€” I mean, what's up with these questions? Some of them just seem like they're asking for info that's easily found on Wikipedia or some other football website. Like question 5, "Which men or women have turned down the biggest jobs in club football?" - can't we just Google that?

And what's with question 3? "When was the League Cup final first televised?" Not even a specific year or decade given? Come on, it's not like this is rocket science.

And don't even get me started on question 8. "Has anyone been more prolific in cup knockout matches without scoring so much as a single league goal?" - what's the point of that one? Are we just supposed to know some obscure stat about football players?

I guess what I'm saying is, if you're gonna share some random trivia questions, at least have the decency to provide some actual answers or sources. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
 
omg i just read this 🀯 and my mind is blown... who knew there were so many cool facts about football that nobody talks about? πŸ˜… like did u know that berwick rangers have actually won back-to-back matches at the start & end of 2025 πŸŽ‰ that's wild! πŸ˜‚
 
man these football q's are old news some of it seems like from my childhood lol what really shocks me tho is how little info they get for some of these questions idk if its because its not "mainstream" or something but come on can't we get more deets on that Al-Nassr match πŸ˜’

i'm kinda stoked to see Berwick Rangers making history tho bookending a calendar year with wins yeah thats pretty cool πŸ‘
 
Ugh, I'm so done with all these nostalgic questions about old football games πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. Can't we just talk about something new for once? Like, have you guys seen the latest stadium designs in the Premier League? They're so... basic. 😴 Anyway, back to these old questions... I love how some of them are literally impossible to answer without more info πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ. And what's up with question 3? No one knows when that first televised match was? Like, is that really a trivia question? πŸ™„
 
I'm loving these old-school football questions πŸ˜‚! It's crazy how much you can learn about the sport from all those obscure facts 🀯. I mean, who knew there was a League Cup final in 1988-89 that wasn't caught on camera? That's wild πŸ’₯. And that Berwick Rangers record at the end of 2025 is just amazing - what a way to bookend a year! πŸ‘. The AFC Champions League Two draw between Al-Nassr and Arkadag sounds like it could be a real barnburner 🏟️, especially if Cristiano Ronaldo is involved πŸ€”. I'm gonna have to dig deeper into football history now... these questions are giving me ideas πŸ“šπŸ’‘.
 
πŸ€” I'm thinking about all these little tidbits of football trivia... it's crazy how much history there is behind the game! Like, who knew that Berwick Rangers could actually do that bookending thing? 2-1 wins at the beginning AND end of the year? πŸ™Œ That's some impressive record. And can you imagine the excitement for fans who get to witness such a historic moment?

But what really gets me is how much the game has evolved, especially with technology. I mean, it's crazy that we have cameras everywhere now, capturing even the smallest moments on the field. And yet, there are still some historical events that remain a bit of mystery... like that 1988-89 League Cup final between Leeds and Arsenal.

It's interesting to think about how football has adapted to change over the years. From the introduction of TV to clubs winning major honors without being shown on camera... it's all so fascinating! 😊
 
I just found out about that League Cup final between Leeds United and Arsenal back in 1988-89 πŸ† and I'm totally stoked it was recorded! Can you believe there are still some things we don't know about the history of football? πŸ˜‚ Not knowing when the League Cup final was first televised is pretty interesting tho, maybe someone out there has that info? πŸ€” That record for shortest time on pitch as player of the match by Moise Kean though is insane! 10-and-a-half minutes is like, super fast πŸ”₯
 
omg i was wondering how far back the league cup final footage goes lol 1988-89 season is crazy that's like ancient history for football 🀯πŸ’₯ I'm guessing it's because of some obscure rules or whatever πŸ˜… anyway thats pretty cool to know that teams could still pull off wins without cameras capturing it back then πŸ‘
 
πŸ€” so i gotta say, the idea of being able to watch every single goal scored in the english top flight is just wild 😲 like, can u imagine?! it's crazy that some games from the 80s didn't even get caught on camera πŸ“Ή and now we're still trying to figure out stuff like who was the first team to bookend a year with a win πŸ†πŸ‘
