Runners-Up but Never Champions of England
Eight teams have finished second in the top flight without ever winning the title. A couple of them have also been runners-up in the FA Cup final without ever winning the trophy.
There are three minutes to try and get them all if anybody would like to have a go. The seasons in which the eight clubs were runners-up are given, with all of them achieving a second-place finish on just one occasion. Do let me know if you think this is too much (or not enough) time.

Again, thank you very much for having a look.

Good (but difficult) quiz, got the four most recent ones but none of the first four.
Clue: no team from Norfolk has finished runner-up in either the league or the FA Cup, let alone win it |  |

4/8 - quite pleased with that but no doubt some smart arse will be along in a minute with 8/8 in 21seconds!
Got 83/84 first go, and 75/76 third go, not because I knew the answers but just because I knew that sort of clubs that were doing OK about that time. Got 1906/07 in the same way as a fluke. Then 55/56, but surprised they didn't win it.
Surprised the 'team of the 80s' weren't there, and surprised the massive Irons are no better than the little ol' budgies in terms of the league, ha-ha-ha! (although of course they have won a few FA Cups and Cup Winners Cups) |  |

6/8, missed the oldest two. Technically I didn't know any of them, was just rolling through teams. |  |

Does clubs give players caps to captains who lift cups won by clubs whose teams players are winners of the Cup Winners Cup?

8/8 in 1m 46s, but that was after having got none right at the first attempt despite entering Coventry 5 times in the hope that the program would have some sympathy and change its mind.
Good quiz as always, but probably an hour and 3 minutes would be a better time allowance for me. |  | | |

I tried Coventry too, but just the once. If my memory had been good enough I would have tried Corinthians...I did try Wycombe as a nod to the ancient club called Wanderers...sigh... | |

No, but they have participated in both competitions. | |
