Welcome to our non-professional football quiz (if you are saying to yourself “isn’t everything you do ‘non-professional?” then you’ve lost a point straight away)
It’s a short quiz on the origins of various professional footballers and other celebrities who played the beautiful game at ‘proper’ football grounds before they went off and made their millions in the Premier League and whatnot
It’s just for fun, and of course there are a couple of ‘work’ related questions in there, but if you like it feel free to forward it on to a friend or colleague (maybe if you don’t like it then send it to someone you don’t like that much)
You’ve got 15 seconds for each question from the moment you click the button below:
