Who has an all ireland medal for gaelic football and a world cup medal for soccer?
Underage or senior?

More like a sports question than a trivia one imo :)

[tetsujin1979]

Well Gary Breen's grandfather won an All Ireland with Kerry, so there's a decent chance he has inheirited it, and every player who played in Japan/South Korea got a medal to prove it, so he definately has a World Cup medal, just not a winner's medal

And Socrates won the World Cup when exactly? :rolleyes:

[Countyman]

I only heard the question this morning and I was just told now the answer was socrates. He won a sigerson alright.

But as aldini says above he never won a world cup winners medal.

What a waste a time . Apologies :mad:

I remember reading an intrerview with him and he said he had never been to Ireland.

[shedite]

Unfortunately think it's an urban legend. He studied in the Royal College of Surgeons alright but never played football (or soccer for that matter) with them.

[Aberdonian Stu]

That's right. Other urban myths include him playing for UCD and playing in the Collingwood for RCSI.

[Aldini98]

A friend of mine described him as "the closest thing to Jesus that ever played football"

Gustavo is quite correct. Look at the question:
Ok, 5 English football teams whose names both start and end with the same letter?
Coventry and City both start with a C and end with a Y.

If the question was Ok, 5 English football teams whose name both starts and ends with the same letter? then Aston Villa etc... would be the correct answers

[Poor Student]

Shamrock Rovers, Sligo Rovers and Drogheda United.
