Title: Need a Bag Carrier?
Post by: rorysgrandad on January 25, 2022, 11:57:07 AM
Matt Gould called up by New Zealand. In New York Friday then Abu Dhabi on Tuesday. In Nantwich goalkeeping usually.

If you are carrying his bags, don't go to New York as the Jordan game on Friday is actually at the New York University Stadium in Abu Dhabi! The Uzbekistan game on Tuesday is then in Dubai. Good luck to Matty Gould in his adventure.


I can't think of a player having a full international callup while at the club. Lee Ramoon seems a strong possibility, but I can't recall him playing for the Cayman Islands while he was on our books, although he was loaned out most of the time.

I am sure Marc Joseph played for Antigua and Barbuda during his time with us.

I had second thoughts thankfully. Could have been an expensive mistake! 😱

Phew! Good to hear.

Meanwhile, I am sure Andrew is right that  Marc Joseph did play for Antigua and Barbuda while he was with us. I did have a nagging feeling that somebody had played for a Caribbean nation but had forgotten about him.

If he had stayed on our books for longer than a fortnight,  Danny Higginbotham would have played for Gibraltar while an Altrincham player, I am sure.

Ramoon actually scored for us didn't he? Presumably that would be the only time a full international has scored for us?

He did, but so did Marc Joseph.

I can’t believe Marc Joseph played international football for anyone, small island nation or not. He was atrocious for us. Being charitable, that may have been because he was simply past his best at the age he joined us.

James Lawrie had 3 full Northern Ireland caps before joining us, so there’s him as well.

In fact, I’d venture he’d be the international with most goals in Alty shirt.
