The TV programme. Last night a category was clubs who have been in PL. Grounds were stated - where in the UK?
Fratton Park - Portsmouth - 68% people
St Mary's - 27% people
I rest my case

Isn't the point of the show; The lower the score, the better the answer? I rest my case too.

The actual scores shown in each category are those recorded from 100 people. Whilst appreciating that the object of the contestants is to pick a question to answer which the fewest people record an answer for, this does not invalidate the claim that when those 100 people were asked, MORE people knew about FP & Pompey than St Fairies & Scumpton.
The other day one of my children actually asked why their ground is called St Mary's, and I had the pleasure of advising him that originally the football club was that of a youth club attached to a local St Mary's church (not the one in the middle of Portsmouth that you can see from the top of the hill), whereas Pompey as a club has connections with the oldest regiment in the British Army.
Am I right in remembering that Stains have only appeared in an FA Cup Final once in all their History? What is their ratio of Championships (Premier, 1st) and Cup final appearances to the number of years they have been in the First tier of english football?

Absolute b*ll*cks. I watched that show and the 1st post on this thread is absolutely right. many, many more people knew Pompey's ground than knew scums ground.
