Common Ground

Here's a little brain-teaser thread to start the week.
The person who gets the correct answer is welcome to pose the next one.

The theme (question) is:

What do they have in common?

If no-one gets it then more teams/players/facts/figures etc can be added, so long as they share the common ground.


Clues to the current quiz are at post 211

 

Portsmouth
St Johnstone
Athletico Madrid

 

Because they all have a bitter rivalry with superior neighbours?

 

[in Roy Walker voice]

That's a very good answer - but it's not the right one!

 

All football teams?

 

Basingstoke

 

Is it related to how or when they were formed?

 

No, nothing like that

 

Sunderland

 

Morecambe
Fiorentina

 

Accrington Stanley.

 

I think you've got the wrong end of the stick. The (your) task is to come up with what all the teams I've listed have in common

 

It's definately Chilco's Superior neighbour theory

 

Held a trophy during the war and then spend the next 50 years bleeting on about being cup holders for 7 years?

 

Got it...Common Ground you cheeky blighter...they all play or played at a "Park"? (possibly completely wrong)

 

I don't think Basingstoke play at a "park", Think it's "Camrose" or something similar.

 

No it's not a "Park"

 

Guimaraes
Clachnacuddin
Bayer Leverkausen

 

They all play or have played in blue?

 

still no.
