Buchan is the obvious one, used to think Dave Mackay as well but I don't think he captained Hearts in 1956.

186479 Clash,

These have played in all 4 divisions
Boaz Myhill,
Andy Dawson,
Ian Ashbee,
Michael Turner,
And maybe Dean Marney (Could be wrong there)
Steve Finnan (Not playing in the premier league at the moment though)


Ryan France of Hull can be added to this list.

Also like Steve Finnan, Stephen Kelly, Tony Cottee and Rob Earnshaw have done it but arent currently in the Premiership)

The rest are probably youth players who have gone on load a couple of times.

Patrique - the Irish Independent for the 22nd February 1909 actually gives the score as a slighty more respectable Dublin 4-12 Cavan 1-3, Dublin were 3-7 to 0-2 up at half-time having played against the breeze. The Indo report says that:
"It was the first occasion on which Cavan had represented the Northern province, and it was expected that they would give a better display than any of their predecessors had done, but, we must say, they disappointed."
Seems like the media never learn.
