Solutions

1:C - Fowler scored 128 in 266 league games., 2:A - Carragher, Heskey and Lampard made more appearances in the league., 3:B - Rosberg and was born in Germany to a Finnish father and German mother. He now lives in Monaco., 4:D - Schumacher won a record seven titles: in 1994 and 1995 plus the five in a row from 2000 to 2004., 5:C - Ross ran the line in the match between Sporting Lisbon and Real Madrid in Portugal. It was a big game but his fellow MSP Ben Macpherson was unimpressed: 'The arrogance and blatant disrespect of "three jobs" Tory Douglas Ross is simply staggering. Last time the whistle was blown on one of his refereeing junkets the Tories claimed it was just a "one off". But he's at it again - and this time it should be a straight red card.', 6:C - Raonic is yet to win a grand slam., 7:D - O’Sullivan added: 'I have conversations with God and he said to me, ‘Jack snooker in mate, you’re better off as a pundit’ and I was like, "Hold on, we will have to have a proper conversation about that".', 8:B - Law also scored 30 goals for Manchester City., 9:D - A club spokesman said: 'We realise people will go to any lengths to watch a game at Old Trafford but these people went too far.', 10:B - Australia thumped them 33-13 in the World Cup but, if England can beat Argentina and Australia in the next two weeks, they will have achieved a 100% record in 2016.
