Greetings..
Im just trying to speed up the boring pre season with a trivia game. I'll start, and whoever gets it right the sets the next trivia question.. May the fun never end!
Anyway..
There are TWO teams in the English leagues, premier through to the 3rd, that when they play AWAY they are perfectly entitled to wear their HOME kit, thus forcing the home team to change their colours.
Who are these two teams and WHY?
I can offer two clues, the first of which will be printed on monday!
**EDIT** Sod it.. heres the first clue.. one team was given the right, the other team had to earn the right.

!! CORRECT !! Readings nickname is "The Royals" as they play in the royal county of Berkshire. They got given the right because of that fact.......

My guess is AC3 due to the short name and single-digit number.

Might be a bit easy this one. What's the connection between these teams:
Huddersfield Town, Sheffield United, Liverpool, Manchester United, Sheffield Wednesday, Newcastle United, Chelsea, Southampton.

CORRECT!! The clue was that we are in the Arsenal forum! I thought I'd keep it a bit topical.
