Twins

[tierney2002#1]

Hey all,

Am hoping for a bit of help.

Derek and Kenneth Shevlin (twins) made their debut for Drogheda United on Valentine's Night 1998 in Ballybofey against Finn Harps.

Does anyone know if any other twins have made their debut in the same match in the League of Ireland (or even in top-flight world football)?.

Rgds,

I wonder if there have been any twins in the LOI at all? Can't think of any. Brothers certainly but not twins.

I remember reading somewhere about the Shevlin twins, think they played for Drogs.

Martin Keown and his twin brother both made their Brighton debuts on the same day back in 1985, I remember that getting a load of coverage at the time.

Have the Utd twins palyed the same game yet? If so has the referee lost the plot in trying to book either of them!

Yeah that actually happened in a Carling Cup game this season. The wrong twin got booked and they had to appeal it to the FA to get it switched to the other twin.
