    1.Name an Irish player, English player, Welsh player and Scot who have all played for clubs in three different countries, and these three clubs have all won the European cup at some stage, i.e the player might not have been with the club at the time the club won it but the club has won it at some stage.
    Irish: Tony Cascarino

    Scot: Steve Archibald


    2. Who is the only man to play in the Glasgow, merseyside and manchester derbies??
    Andrei Kanchelskis


    3.There is a footballer who has played in the top flight league in england, spain, france, germany and holland. name him
    Tomas Brolin


    4.Sunderland done it in 1978, Villa done it in 1981.....Can you all tell me who done it in 1980 , and what is they all done?
    Brooking, but i won't ruin it for everyone by saying what it is they all done

    I'm pretty sure that Brolin never played in France... or Holland either for that matter. Didn't he go from Swedish club(s) to Parma to Leeds to Crystal Palace to retirement?

    Hate to be picky

    but I think question 3 is wrong:

    3.There is a footballer who has played in the top flight league in england, spain, france, germany and holland. name him

    I guessed Raduciou at first which you gave as the right answer but Florian played in England, Spain, France, Germany, Italy and Romania - never in Holland. Dunno if you got the question wrong or if there's another answer but I'm pretty sure as it stands Raduciou isn't the correct answer.

    Ok

    Maybe so, he also played in Italy (Milan & Brescia) though, how cool does that make him then. That's a truly great career, getting to play and live all over Western Europe.

    Florian had a spell with Monaco in France. Not a huge success there either.
