Name the players

[Claire]

Don't knowif anyone watched the Championship this morning but here's a poser for you.

A Swansea fan stated that if they win and go up and then Trundle goes to the Prem, he willhave played in all four divisions.

Can you name the two players who have already achieved this?

You may be right, but so am I. It said so, on the Championship 8)

 

[Joe_TRFC]

Yes it did say on the Championship that it was Nixon and Cottee... but you may be right about those two as well and the Championship just haven't realised.

Stephen Kelly of Spurs did it last season.

 

[Birkenhead Born and Bred]

I knew that Rob Earnshaw has played in all four divisions but I thought Aldo has well I think

 

[DixieDean]

I thought Aldo has well I think

Aldo has only played in the top 3 divisions (not the 4th).

 

[bolton_hater]

[Matthew The Rover]

Division 4 I think (I should know, I did read his autobiography!)

 

[bolton_hater]

i thoughthat so thats al four divisons then isnt it?

 

[DixieDean]

sorry, yes he was at Newport from 1979-1984 and they got promoted from Division 4 in 1979/80. So he did indeed spend 1 season in div 4.
