I'd say there is a good chance for North Koreans their Dear Leader Kim Jong Il probably hold the record. I'd guess he has 10,000 caps.

After all he shot a 38 under par round his first time ever on a golf course. That round included 11 holes in one.

You thinking Robin Turner? Don't think he was manager with an FAI Youth Cup with Erris United - that was Martin McIntyre. Didn't know he won a UEFA Cup either. Or that he was in Escape to Victory! But I know he played with Ipswich so there can't be anyone else, can there?
