I was just about to ask that!

Jarrod

I've asked a buddy who's a bit of a Football League buff and he reckons he's got it, seeing as I didn't get it myself I won't give away the answer, it is a tricky one though.

losthorizon

Beasty who said Accrington is right. Missed his post the first time. One to go

Red Kev wrote: »

no

Red Kev

Ok, I googled the answer as I'm heading out, I thought it was something defunct and I was right. Interesting club all the same, they still hold a few records, some of which are unique.

Good question either way losthorizon.

losthorizon

Im going offline but this is a question I got from reading around on the internet and the last club I had never heard of tbh. think its something you know or dont. Ive never even heard of the Town they are from (clue 1) and Clue 2 They share a name with a famous biologist.

Beasty

losthorizon

Don't tell the guys from Nurenberg that they are Bavarians though

Most of them claim to be Franconians

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franconia

Red Kev

Greuther Furth as well.

SSV Ulm were in it a few years ago, technically the club is formes from clubs that were based in both Ulm (Baden Wurttenburg) and Neu-Ulm (Bavaria). Though if pushed I'd give it to Baden Wurtternburg.
