Another good find. So which two future TUFC players opposed each other in a 1984 B international, which two in 1990 and which two in 1991? Jamie Ward is another under-21 and very nearly a full Northern Ireland international. |

Good one, Jon, we overlapped. I'll investigate that site.
Bloody hell, I'd missed Mickey Evans, another one cap wonder.
Would never have got Colin Walker but - as soon as you mentioned it - yes he did, didn't he? And, of course, we last encountered him as manager of York City.
Amir Hashemi - I seem to remember him being billed as an Iranian Olympic international?
Narada Bernard - one sub appearance for TUFC; one sub appearance for Jamaica. Not sure who he was registered with at the time - seems like he was enjoying a period of inactivity between Plainmoor and Welling. Given the game was at The Valley perhaps he was just passing?
I think that's sorted it! Well done all.
Did some of your Germans possess Deb'n accents?

Didn't Ivan Golac bring a German player of some reasonable reputation in his brief spell at the club (Scholl?) and when he arrived he assumed that Plainmoor was the training ground - or is that just an apochryphal tale?!
Wasn't Gareth Law from Germany?
I recall that we had an Iranian or an Iraqi international line-up against Swansea in an Associate Members Cup game around 1990 - I guess that was Amir Hashemi?

Are we still missing another England international in Gordon Astall or was he mentioned elsewhere?
And Justin Newell is another one of the Germans.

Steve McCall and Colin Walker no less! There's a Kevin Birch in the NZ team - but I don't think it's the one I knew at school because I'm pretty sure he became a PE teacher in Cullompton. Jo Kuffour apparently once made the Ghana squad but didn't play. I suspect your Jermyn-sounding German might have a Dorset accent Jamie Ward looks a pretty definite addition to the full international list fairly soon. As for another Northern Irish U21 international? And a Scots one who featured in a memorable incident during a memorable game? |

Anthony Thirlby - West or East Berlin?

Here's one I stumbled across in Wikipedia (it must be true) - which former Torquay loanee has turned out for England's Learning Disability team?

Good call on Scholl - I'd forgotten all about him, but he doesn't count in my 4 because he hever played a first team game. Can you remember if he ever played in the Reserves? Gareth Law's from Newton Abbot - but you're not far away thinking young strikers - one a year or two either side of him. Hashemi is the same player - although he also had another surname too long to even attempt to spell. |

Good stuff - three out of four Germans found.
Could be a photo finish as to who tracks down the last one.

But nobody in opposition to Jason Rees at the Vetch in Feb 1991 (although he did have Sean McCarthy for company which sounds like a future Exeter pub crawl). |
