    Today's football trivia

    Without recourse to google, can you name the only local derby to have taken place in every one of the top 4 football tiers, where a local derby is defined as two teams in the same city - eg not Derby vs snottingham

    For further clarity cripple palace is deemed as being in Croydon and not London

    Divisions 3 north and south both count as tier 3

    Note correct naming of the club incorrectly called Bradford Park Avenue most of the time.

    What were Crystal Palace’s (three) shirt colours for many years before they went red blue and white in the 70’s and what was the name of the defender who scored an own goal in a Derby home 1-0 win the year they changed. As a bonus which Derby player won an FA cup match for Palace in the same manner the year before
