LeungKen Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 ' Steve Mcmahon - was actually born in Preston, England, but chose to play for Ireland because of his ancestry.

LeungKen Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I found this at Wikipedia - now I'm confused The 1986 FA Cup Final was a Merseyside derby between Liverpool. and Everton. at Wembley. The match was played seven days after Liverpool had secured the league title, with Everton finishing as runners-up. Liverpool went on to win this match 3–1, with two goals from Ian Rush, and one from Craig Johnston after Gary Lineker had put Everton ahead in the first half. This match is notable in that it was the first FA Cup Final to feature a team without any English footballers in the starting lineup. Even the Cardiff FA Cup sides of 1925 and 1927 had an English player, Billy Hardy. However, Liverpool did name an English player as substitute, Steve McMahon, and did start with an Englishman (born in Preston) but who chose to play for Ireland due to his ancestry (Mark Lawrenson). Perhaps StevieH will enlighten us....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Johnston? correct. craig skippy johnston, born in south africa to australian parents, played for england. then later went on to invent the predator boot for adidas, a new kind of surfboard and also the measuring technology which knows what you've had from the hotel minibar and tells reception what to add to your bill.
