Wednesday, February 25, 2015. 24th February - Home to the Bate Taverners. The Lemmings were facing the Bate in the second leg of the League games – at the last battle the Lemmings scraped through by a very narrow margin so they knew it would not be an easy game. The Bate are old friends through their various manifestations from the Cricket Club and however close it was going to be a fun-filled night. The bible quote rather obscure (certainly not as well known as Pete Seeger’s version! But the Lemmings r...

Chester Road Tavern provided two great 'free' specialist rounds - A colourful life and Trigger Points - a good little tribute round to the great Roger Lloyd-Pack. We have decided not to mention that it was the opposition wot got the question What great American Folk Singer died recently? Thursday, February 20, 2014. 18th Feb Away to the Knot ‘Arf.

Thursday, April 23, 2015. The Cup Final (the important one). After a glorious day (almost 20 degrees! As the blue skies slipped. Towards a calm warm twilight The Weaver became the arena for a local battle of the titans: the Waters Green Rams were defending their title as cup holders in the League’s knockout competition against The Weaver who have held the cup on several previous occasions. It was also to be the first presentation of the highly coveted Nine-Banded Armadillo trophy. The winner was chosen ...

Wednesday, January 28, 2015. 27th January–Away To The Robin Hood. 8220;History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce” – thus has Karl Marx been misquoted … and yet! We had played the Robin Hood at home last October and suffered a bruising defeat by 30 points. 30 points! We couldn’t let that happen again. Nick was again determined to improve his recent shabby for. Had been set by the Wharf and the Harrington B and John from the Wharf officiated as question master. Let the games begin! Individu...

Nick's Quiz site: 10th March–Away to the Plough Horntails
http://nicksquiz.blogspot.com/2015/03/10th-marchaway-to-plough-horntails.html
Wednesday, March 11, 2015. 10th March–Away to the Plough Horntails. Sadly the Wharf have advised that they will not be able to get a team. To play in the last two games of the season – we very much hope that their problems are resolved by the start of the next season. The Wharf were due to play the Robin Hood this week and the Lemmings next week – coincidentally both teams striving for top place although both guaranteed of promotion. This then was t. Final score 148 to 119 to the Horntails. Individual sc...

Wednesday, April 30, 2014. 30th April–And Now The Final Curtain. Yes, the curtain falls on the Cup Final, the last gasp of the 2013-14 Macclesfield Pub Quiz League, a season that saw several ups. And downs and was in all probability completed thanks to the National Health Service to which several of us owe a big debt of gratitude. The finalists this year were the Dolphin Dragons, proudly sporting their TV star Liz, old. Stalwarts of the A League and a serious (if friendly) force to be reckoned with.

Thursday, October 30, 2014. 28th October First round of the Cup/Plate. Two important knock-out competitions on the night – the first round of the Cup and Plate and Macclesfield’s replay against Wrexham in the fourth qualifying round of the Cup. Were set with a sense of humour, very few were unanswered and we were lucky to have Paul from the Ox-Fford as question-master who kept the laughs rolling along. There will be no. Nominations for the Armadillo trophy this week! But we were not alone – Macc To...

Nick's Quiz site: 17th March–The Final Countdown
http://nicksquiz.blogspot.com/2015/03/17th-marchthe-final-countdown.html
Thursday, March 19, 2015. 17th March–The Final Countdown. The last week of the season was a little disappointing for the Lemmings as they had been due to play The Wharf who were still unable to get a team together. However, being creatures of habit the Lemmings gathered in the. Waters Green Tavern as they have done every Tuesday throughout the season and over a glass or two of the wonderful real ales and cider looked back on a season that all agreed was most enjoyable – perhaps the best. Finally the Lemm...
