Got this obscure interactive DVD game today. Final Answer: Southampton FC. "The game you play with your remote control." This was one of many DVD trivia games released by Smoking Gun in 2005.

They made a business out of doing licensed football games for professional clubs (not even just top-tier ones, either) in England, Scotland, and sometimes across Europe. They never did regular action stuff (Codemasters had that market cornered), but they also did loads of club management sims from around 2003-5. I have a QPR one in my office.
DVD case front cover. "Interactive DVD game. Final Answer: Southampton FC. The game you play with your remote control." DVD case back cover. "Southampton fans - you think you know the score?" It then has screenshots of questions involving Matt Le Tissier and an unnamed player's famous tackle, before adding that all you need to play is your DVD remote. It also lists four features: over 1000 questions, animated match sequences, single or multiplayer, and a different experience every time you play. It retailed for 22 GBP in 2005. DVD case inside cover. Features basic instructions on how to play using the directional buttons on your DVD remote.
