Football trivia question

[moon]

Is it the guy who played for Cardiff and Wales and then moved to a Prem club (or came up with Cardiff last time)?

Thinking of Celtic players who played in England

Try Scott Sinclair

No, but I will say that the Welsh FA once investigated this player’s heritage to determine if he would be eligible for international call-up.

As it seems it is needed, I’ll give the other clue:

This player was consider for international call-up by England, Scotland, and Wales, but never played a minute for any international team (to date, anyway).

Friend of mine is a Norwich season ticket holder and asked this when he (the answer) joined Norwich 4 or 5 years ago.

Then you should button up (and not in our new shirt), you’ve said too much already! ;-)

Ok. I’ll bow out of this one now.

But you get a half point for knowing the answer (I’m running things QI style).

Which player has scored in every professional league and cup competition in England and Scotland, as well as the Europa and Champions Leagues?

(Do not google it you lazy so-and-sos! I have an additional hint at the ready, should it be needed.)

I'd have gone for Kenny Miller, as I think he played in all of the Scottish leagues, but probably only played in two divisions in England. Does this question turn on the word 'professional'? Has the player played in all 4 top divisions in both countries?

Fair enough. Thought you might have asked this question yesterday!

He’s played in six leagues in England and two in Scotland. It does not really turn on it—it was just a way of making the question a bit less specific and obvious.

Two leagues in Scotland? Curious.

It’ll be a case “of course!” once someone gets it.
