Complete bacon joint- Fulham
Keep the fire burning- Stoke
Organ of a small lake- Hartlepool OR Liverpool
Car in front of holiday home- Aston Villa
A prison clock- Celtic

Horserace could equally be Lincoln

[Joe]

Ok. Let's string this out a bit. I'm going to post another cryptic team name, and you have to try and guess it. Once someone does, they can make up and post a different one. Try not to use ones that have gone already though.

Which river crossing?

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

Fresh sterilisation fluid required as substance reaches urban area

[Simon]

:confused:

I'll take a wild guess and say Bath City...

[Joe]

:confused:

I'll take a wild guess and say Bath City...

I think you're wrong as that makes no sense!

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

Try again

[Neil]

New Milton and Lymington Town?

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

No

[Neil]

It was a good guess wasn't it?!!

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

No

[Joe]

Ok. I'd never heard of Milton steralising fluid 'til I looked it up, but there is no better answer than the one Neil just gave.

Me and 7 mates have been racking our brains and the pub all night but to no avail.

Steralising fluids we came up with were: Dettol, bleach, TCP, HD141(!), Quadet.

It should start with 'New', and end in eiother 'town' or 'city'. Don't know about the object.

Seriously though' Neil's is right isn't it?!

[Simon]

With that description how about Newtown of the Welsh Premier League ;)

But seriously I do not have any idea whatsoever!

[Joe]

New Milton and Lymington Town?

They're actually called Lymington and New Milton FC.

Now if that is the right answer, I'd like to think must normal people would have accepted your attempt Neil. Must shandy isn't most normal people.

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

Spot on Joe, on all counts.

I think its fair to get the teams in the right order, how would southcoast fans like to be called Hove Albion and Brighton.

Sloppy work Neil.:rolleyes:

[Neil]

Sloppy work Neil.:rolleyes:I only called them that because thats how you structured the question!!!

[SHANDY LOVE MACHINE]

I take it you don't do any crosswords then?

Me, I can nail the News of the World magazine crossword in an hour. Can anyone beat that.
