Yes, Hamilton Academical (singular) was also a pointless answer. One would hope that West Bromwich A(L) bion was also pointless since we gave them a good pummelling.

"Nooit opgeven altijd doorzetten, Aangenaam door vermaak en nuttig door ontspanning"
Rather bizarre name for a football team tho
"Never give up, always persevere, Pleasant through entertainment and useful through relaxation"
I`m guessing `NAC` fits better into a chant...
