dont think Bucko got a cap while in spain
Couple more North America ones: Steve Heighway won his last cap whilst with Minnesota Kicks. I think Fran O'Brien won all his caps during his time with Philadelphia Fury.Originally Posted by wws
Was Alan Campbell capped whilst playing in Belgium?
campbell played in spain
bucko played in spain and belgium
mick byrne played in (holland i think)
David Connolly - Feyenoord
Cork City: Making 'Dream Team' seem realistic since 2007.
Right you are, just checked the sadly defunct kickinmagazine.ie. Campbell was with Santander when he won his first cap.
Did Alan Mahon win a cap whilst wasting away at Sporting Lisbon?
Doh, of course! And Excelsior Rotterdam if we're counting loan spells.
Great .sig btw
Phil Babb Lisbon
Jackie McDonagh - did he play for ireland while at nimes?
What about Pat Byrne when he played in the NASL
Mick Byrne played for Den Haag
Buko played for Waregem while in Belgium
Nah, won all his caps at Rovers. I believe he's settled down in France and still lives there.
Ditto for Byrne, won all his caps at Rovers (despite playing for Philadelphia Fury, Leicester and Hearts - can't imagine that happening today!)What about Pat Byrne when he played in the NASL
Byrne never got capped though
Bucko got 2 caps one at Rovers and one elsewhere. Guessed it was Santander not Waregem

Right about one with Rovers, but the other was with Waregem - versus Mexico in 1984.
One more - Jimmy Holmes' last cap was with Vancouver.
Together with all our hearts.
Ever anyone capped for us while playing in the Irish League (i.e. up North)?
The only way is up!
Fran O’brien Capped Against England While Playing For Philadelphia Fury
Always look on the bright side of life
Could be wrong but didn't Paul 'Ski' Mc Gee play for some team between QPR and his return to LOI?
Yeah he did. Was it Heerenveen or some other dutch club?Could be wrong but didn't Paul 'Ski' Mc Gee play for some team between QPR and his return to LOI?
