Q: Name five Premiership or Football League teams that have an
"x" in their name.
A: Crewe Alexandra, Exeter City, Halifax Town, Oxford United,
Wrexham
The only problem with this question is that it predates automatic relegation to the Football Conference, and arose in the days when the 92 clubs didn't often change. Both Halifax Town and Exeter City are no longer Football League clubs.
There is a relatively easy way to remember the answers to this one. Given that no club's name starts with an "X" and there are hardly any English words with a consonant immediately in front of an "x", then you know that the letter in front of the "x" should be "a", "e", "i", "o" or "u"). By saying "ax", "ex", "ix", "ox" and "ux" to yourself it's pretty easy to get all the answers except for Crewe.
