    Trivia Question

    What is the only club in the Scottish or English league spelt entirely of letters that can't be coloured in? For example, you can colour in the 'b' in Hibs.

    Just read this in a book, apparently there is only one answer. Can anyone get it?

    That, surely, is cheating. Something that Celtc (capital letters or otherwise) would know all about.

    as far as I know that's the only one but haven't been through all the divisions. You and Pretty Boy got it much quicker than I did.

    From the same book: what is the only London tube station that doesn't contain any letters in the word mackerel?

    I don't know any more of these.

    My guess is Hull City, although I'm not 100% sure.

    Incidentally, both of these are taken from a book called 'The best a man can get'. Quite funny and a decent read if you like easy reading.
