Just watching todays Pointless, and the first question was to name any team that's played in the SPL since inception. In the survey, 25 answered Hibs, but 29 mentioned u-know-who. Wonder if they'll obtain a DVD of the show, and maybe that would be an earner for them ? Best quiz show ever BTW. :aok:

With the way that show works though, it means that Hibs are actually a better answer than Hearts. :thumbsup:

We would have been the wrong answer as we haven't played in the SPL since inception? Sure we missed the first year?

I thought that as well with the wording in the OP but the question on the show was actually just asking people to name any club that has played in the SPL during any season since its inception in 98/99.

I saw a pointless though which was name SPL sides in the 10/11 season and the wee team (us) were the fourth most popular!

It went:

Celtic
Rangers
Aberdeen
Hibs
Motherwell
Hearts
Dundee Utd
Kilmarnock

etc etc :agree:

Who is this "wee team" we are referring to?

We shouldn't even be humouring the Saviles.

There's an obvious explanation for that. English people who aren't interested in football (after possibly muttering Rantic) would guess names of big places in Scotland, which obviously includes Aberdeen. Whereas someone would actually need to know Hibs, Hearts, St. Mirren and St. Johnstone to offer them as answers.

They've done that question twice - last year we had 31 and Hearts 26.

We win on aggregate.

Must be a repeat. This pointless thread appeared donkeys ago! Love that outcome though. Hertz being, ultimately and clearly, more pointless than us.
