On the day after Princess Diana died I was on my way to watch Kilmarnock v Motherwell at Rugby Park.

I was stopped in the street by an old guy who said " the games no oan son coz eh that daft wee lassie getting killed, ken". I said my name's Max not Ken.

We went home to continue mourning the passing of the people's princess. Of course we didn't know she was the people's princess until Tony and the Daily Express put us right on that a few days later.

5/10 I knew some and some were obvious and I should have got another one right.Plus the odd guess here and there.

I got 6. But I'm sure the answer to Q8 is wrong. I thought that a footy match couldn't continue if one side was reduced to 7 men (not 6 as is inferred in the answer). Unless 2 left the park at the same time.

7/10

I prefer the game that was abandoned because of fog, without the keeper realising. He stayed in goal for a further 10 minutes :D
