25-second pick · +85

Barnsley Deep Cut

8 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 51 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Barnsley: Deep Cut, +85, 8 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, or Manchester City — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Swindon Town (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Swindon Town +100

Skip Arsenal · Chelsea · Liverpool · Manchester City
