    Absolutely no chance I would say, Eire.

    Shame as we could have followed Gnonto.

    Wouldn't rule them out Shacks.

    I think the Danes will go well, semi's possibly.

    I'd have said Radebe at the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea

    I think the last player to have captained a team in the world cup who had at one time or another played for us, would be Viduka in the 2006 world cup, but Radebe was both captain for South Africa in 1998 and 2002, whilst still playing for us

    Before that I would say we have to got all the way back to 1974 when Billy captained Scotland.

    Just checked as I thought maybe John Charles might have captained Wales in 58, but he didn't, so Adams will become the 3rd player to captain his country whilst playing for Leeds

    Still blame Shilton for not taking his Gringo’s head of the soft cnut
