Not even going to attempt them, but the answers will be interesting.

Scooter, you are correct that Shrewsbury Town is one of the answers to question 1.

5. two must be Wembley and the Millenium stadium. Clive Mendonca is the answer to number 4 Correct, 3rd ground is tricky, clue is it's been used for ground shares and at least one neutral play-off game before Wembley was used.
