Cec, you're probably just too tired to concentrate at the moment, so in the morning click the 'wikipedia' link.
The '2006 World cup results etc' link,is just that, the latest stats on the World cup.

Luna, the name has been mentioned.

Go to Underquark's first imaged - click on quote - you'll see a web address - part of that address, at the very end, is a name - then look at any one of the anagrams.

Interestingly, if you drop all the punctuation from this address, there are 13 consecutive letters that form an "anagram" of the 13-letter answer...

You might have heard of the Planet of Muscle - Jupiter that is...

[lunababy_moonchild]

So, is it Jules Rimet Cup?

Is that supposed to be a name?

Yes, and since it's actually officially called the "Jules Rimet Trophy" I tried to deliberately search out an image with the word "cup" in it somewhere in order to include the anagram.

Ah! "Gotcha". So it was Jules Rimet Cup . Yes.. now I remember.. I had one of those years ago and the back wheels fell off At least I don't feel as embarrassed now knowing the answer. And to think MCC said "An easy one whilst the football is on"

Oops! I forgot to thank all the above who were giving clues to help me solve this riddle rather than simply telling me the answer.

This BBC link can't seem to make up it's mind whether to call it trophy or cup.

And to think MCC said "An easy one whilst the football is on"

I thought that once people caught on that I was posting anagrams the riddle would be solved. I did say it was topical.

Anyway, well done to all

My apologies MCC...with a clearer head I can see my above comment should have been worded better. It was intended to be jovial with the emoticon on the end and meant to reflect on my own shortcomings in not being able to solve this riddle which most others were able to do after you posted the anagrams.

I can see a funny side to all this .. After my lucky early guess that the riddle related to the World Cup I thought I had a chance to solve it quickly.... little did I know what was ahead of me

I wasn't having a go at you Cec so no apologies needed
