correct.

Off to bed, so an easy one - oldest player to appear in the premiership?

[MHiggi]

John Burridge!

Edit: Just checked and wiki tells me that Budgie played for 29 clubs (including 15 league clubs) which is another record he holds. I think I was at the game where he set the oldest prem player record although its tough to remember as I was 9.

[symiblue]

Yes!!! - can get off to bed now :-) Your turn

Who has played in The Premiership, Divisions 1, 2 & 3, The Conference, The Champions League and the UEFA cup?

[Scatman]

Who has played in The Premiership, Divisions 1, 2 & 3, The Conference, The Champions League and the UEFA cup?

York

I think they missed the UEFA when Sweden beat us in the fair play league. I think the correct answer is Nigel Martyn

If it's a player rather than a team Steve Finnan might be a good shout.

Or Dion Dublin.

He's played lower leagues, Welling was it?

I knew he's come right up through the leagues but I've a feeling that he might have missed one of the top four divisions when he moved to Pompey (either L1 or the Championship). I think Dion Dublin might be a good shout. Conference and League 2 with Cambridge (or was it Oxford?); Prem with Scummers, Coventry, Villa; Champions League and Uefa Cup with Celtic; Championship and League 1 with Norwich (?)

Maybe not, but he's one of those players who shot up through the league and then went slowly back down through them as he got older.

[Robert]

Alioune DVToure is spot on with Finnan he played for Welling Utd, Birmingham City, Notts County and Liverpool

[Robert]

Steve Harper is a common answer for this - Gateshead, Stockport, Huddersfield, Hartlepool, Bradford and Newcastle, but he never actually played for Stockport while he was on loan to them

Good coz I was ready to have another guess with Colin Kazim-Richards. He must've come close, right? I think he'll have done them all except for maybe the Conference and the Champs League. Anyway.....

Name all [edit : EIGHT]towns or cities in THE FOUR PROFESSIONAL ENGLISH DIVISIONS that could feasibly host a SAME-CITY derby.
