The Cardiff City Atlas

Joel Bagan Ireland now
 
Martin John - Canada, England, Switzerland, Columbia, Gambia

This is exactly the kind of thing we're looking for :hehe:

Colombia and Gambia are both vacant at the moment. Will stick him down for Gambia as he's half Gambian and only a quarter Colombian :thumbup:
 
Steve Mokone

From Wiki:

In 1964 Mokone moved to the United States. There he was convicted and imprisoned for separate felony assaults committed in 1977 against his then wife, Joyce Maaga Mokone, and the 34-year-old female attorney who was representing Joyce Mokone in divorce and custody proceedings at the time. On 31 October 1978, Mokone pleaded guilty in Superior Court of Middlesex County New Jersey to the crime of atrocious assault for having personally attacked his wife with lye on 20 November 1977. He was subsequently sentenced to serve between 8 and 12 years in New Jersey State Prison.[8] In 1980 Mokone stood trial in New York County, New York, accused of having orchestrated an attack on his wife's lawyer, Ann Boylan Rogers, in which sulfuric acid was thrown in her face outside her home in Manhattan on 8 October 1977.[9] Rogers was left seriously disfigured and blind in one eye. Mokone was found guilty of Assault in the First Degree in May 1980 and later sentenced to serve 5 to 15 years in New York State Prison after having completed his New Jersey sentence. He was released from custody in August 1990.

In 1996, he founded the Kalamazoo South African Foundation. Dutch sports journalist Tom Egbers wrote a novel based on Mokone,[10] which was made into a movie in 2000; both novel and movie are called The Black Meteor

I think the strategy is just going to have to be to trawl through all the players with funny-sounding names to see which (if any) obscure countries there grannies etc are from.

In other news, just remembered that Perry Ng qualifies for the Singaporean national side, so that's another on the list :hehe:

Our latest re-signed player, Chanka Zimba is dual nationality UK and Zambia. So we have a reserve for Earnie
