    Boring quiz for those wanting to pass some time

    Taking into account all league and cup fixtures within the English football pyramid while Cardiff City have been a league team, and counting opponents as the same club if there's been a name change (like Swansea Town to Peg Sellers FC but not including Wimbledon's move to Milton Keynes), work out or have a guess at (thinking 2+4!):

    1) Which 5 teams have Cardiff City played most often?

    2) How many different teams have Cardiff City played in the league, FA cup, League cup and Football Trophy?

    3) Including AFC Wimbledon, name the 8 teams currently in the Football League that Cardiff City have yet to face in a league match?

    4) What are the 3 most common scorelines in Cardiff City matches (ie 4-0 win, 6-6 draw, 3-1 defeat etc)

    1) Swansea, Ipswich, Sheff Utd, Wolves, Wrexham

    2) 133

    3) Yeovil, Accrington Stanley, Crawley, Forest Green, Morcambe, Stevenage and Oxford (AFC Wimbledon too)

    4) 1-1 draw, 2-1 loss, 1-0 win

    All complete guesses apart from 3 which I'm half confident about.

    Re: Boring quiz for those wanting to pass some time

    Here's the correct answers so far:

    1) Preston, Bristol City, Bolton. Interesting that 2 have suggested Wrexham - they're 60th in that list. QPR 6th, Sheff Utd 8th, Huddersfield 9th, Swansea 18th, Ipswich and Barnsley joint 41st.

    2) 126! Spot on!

    3) We've got all of these - Accrington, Crawley, Fleetwood, Forest Green, Morecambe, Stevenage and Yeovil. I've taken Newport as a continuation of Newport County, but it could also be argued they're a different club. We've played Oxford 25 times in league and cup, Newport County 23 times. We have played Accrington and Yeovil in cup competitions.

    4) 1-1 draw (518 times), 1-0 City win (388 times), 2-1 City win (350 times). Next were 0-0 (348), 1-0 defeat (332) and 2-1 defeat (324).
