"Fergie and Burlington House squad take point and go first to soccer club"

Fergie ... = ALEX (FERGUSON)
and Burlington House... = AND RA*
squad... = (CREW)
take point... = (E - point of the compass)
and go first.... = swap both words
to soccer club... = CREWE ALEXANDRA

*Burlington House is better known as the Royal Academy

Hope this helps.

Capt.Pugwash's shipmates and the BBC's old HQ might lead you to Gresty Road.
I did'nt want to the cryptic clue to be too difficult or obscure given that the quiz teams had 14 previous questions whose initials formed the anagram and they only had about 30 secs to answer.
