  1. Dundee lost 1-7 to West Brom in Vancouver on this day in 1959. The West Brom team group includes at least one Scottish born player, Jimmy Dudley (back row 3rd from right). Born in Gartcosh, his family moved to England when he was 8. He played in West Brom’s FA Cup winning side in 1954 and played once for Scotland B in a 1-1 draw with England B at Sunderland a few months earlier. He might not have been on the North American tour as he moved to Walsall for the 1959/60 season helping them win the Fourth Division that season.

    Q: Vestri is in the Icelandic League top division for the very first time. They are the northernmost side in the division coming from Isafjörður (about 30 nautical miles south of the Arctic Circle). What is the capacity of their home ground, Torfnesvöllur?

    A: 1,596 

    @JamesP_81 is promoted and @Duszek relegated with everyone else staying where they were.
     

    Tie break what is the distance by road from Isafjörður and Reykjavik? Not required but the answer is 413.9 kms (257.19 miles) @peasy23 was closest with 167 miles.
