    Is (3) not Alan Cork? I know he was the first player to score in all four divisions (coming up through the leagues with Wimbledon).

    Dunno. He was a fairly prolific striker in the lower leagues; may have notched on in the First Division (as it would have been then). May well be Earnshaw though.

    Robert Earnshaw all right. See question 58:

    http://www.tijou.co.uk/trivia/footy.html

    Some very interesting other questions there as well.

    I think Alan Cork played in the first season of the Premiership with Sheffield Utd. I remember his Cup semi goal for the Blades from the previous year very well, they were a goal down to Wednesday via a Waddle free kick and Cork scored from the right side of the box placing it past the onrushing keeper while appearing so red and out of breath that he looked like he was going to collapse. Sadly Wednesday won that one in extra time.

    Oi!!!

    Earnie scored a hattrick against Charlton in the 4-1 win last season. Oh, and the Baggies will stay up no problem this season. Bye bye Mick McCarthy.

    The wonder goal from a Waddle free kick and the extra time winner from Mark Bright. Happy days. Sheridan pulling the strings in midfield.

    took this from Everton website

    Everton 2-1 Liverpool, December 1992:
    Peter Beardsley joins the exclusive list of players to have scored for both sides in a Merseyside derby when he nets the winning goal at Goodison.


    This would lead me to believe that more than one man has done this-any other suggestions.

    Some more to keep ye going

    Question: Which player (apparently there is only one) played for teams managed by Jack and Bobby Charlton?

    Question: Which players have played for five or more Premiership teams?

    Question: What was used in the 1973 Cup Final but has never been used since?

    Question: Name the three footballers that have played, and scored, in the Manchester, Merseyside and Glasgow derby games?
