Tiger Internationals

[King Tubby]

Didn't Peter Taylor pull some strings (or get some dodgy payment in a brown envelope) to include Billy Paynter in an Under 21 match at the KC? Not sure whether it was a fully-fledged international match or not, but maybe John Welsh and/or Scott Wiseman were called up as well.

Wonder what happened to those 3.....with such early promise they must have gone on to forge top-flight careers for themselves somewhere surely?!

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Forgetting how about Keith Andrews and the Republic of Ireland? Or was that after when he joined Blackburn.

 

[Sabretooth]

Alan Jarvis played for Wales in the 60's.

Paynter's one appearance was in a Football League U21 England side(no Premier League players) and it wasn't a good team.

Wiseman played in a one-off U20's tournament in France.

Welsh played several times for the U21's and until his leg break, he looked like he deserved to be there.

I believe that City are the only League Two club ever to have a game postponed due to having four players away on international duty.

the two jamaicans in whitmore and goodison, didnt we have a striker who played for st. kitts and nevis? despite the fact they had never been to that country, was it jamie wood? who was the other olm?

wasnt that Clint Marcelle ? and the fourth one something Johannson the lad from the Faroe Islands

 

[originallambrettaman]

Three of them were Goodison, Whitmore and Johnsson, I'm not sure about the forth, possibly Van Blerk the Aussie?

 

[Jimmy Graham's bald head]

I'm pretty sure it was Michael Price for Wales U21.

Jamie Wood was the Cayman Islands.

I think Marcelle was Trinidad and Tobago, and Julian J from the Faroes.

I think Johnnie Stephens played for Wales too ... and, much earlier, how about Stan Alexander ... and, but not whilst playing for the Tigers, how about Mannion / Mortenson / Franklin .. and Mangers who played at international level would include Don Revie and Cliff Britton.

Joe Corrigan...World Cup squad 1982

Ray Parlour 10 England Caps
Jay Jay Okocha 75 Nigeria Caps 14 goals
Mark Hately 32 England Caps 9 goals

Billy Bremner 54 Scotland Caps 5 goals
David Rocastle (loan) 14 England Caps

You've missed loads off here! Danny Mills, Nick Barmby! Henrik Pederson, Geovanni, Steve Mclaren and Peter Taylor to name a few. Also isn't cairney an U21 international for scotland?

richard sneekes holland ?

then they realised what a divine talent he had and told him to sling his hook.

Jamie Wood was the Cayman Islands.

Interesting I've been reading "From Boom to Bust" and it seems that Whitmore & Goodison played for Jamaica against Jamie Wood who was selected for the Cayman Islands... 3 City players thousands of miles away facing each other..

and to confirm it was the same season (B Little was boss) that he signed the Faroes player Johannson. Jason van Blerk's last cap for Oz was the season before he joined City.

I wasn't at all sure about the van Blerk one, it was really just a guess as I couldn't remember the forth player, looks like it was Wood then and it must have been 2001.

Paynter is at Leeds, Welsh is playing for Tranmere near to his native Liverpool and Scott Wiseman the last i heard was playing for Rochdale alongside Will Atkinson.
