Glentoran's finest Terry Moore is indeed the correct answer. He was in the Canadian squad in 1986.

Still only 20, but judging by the way clubs can't offload him quickly enough, it looks like he might never be better than shite. Too much Nike backed hype, too young.

Still nobody has got my trivia question.

Who is the only Irish League based player to have been a playing member in a World Cup Finals squad in the past 24 years?

Terry Moore was a member of the Canadian squad but did not play any games during 1986...

I know he didnt play but I used the word 'playing' to make it clear that the Irish League player wasn't part of a management setup/backup team.

Squad member would probably have been clearer...I took this to mean someone who had actually played...

Big blow for Ghana (potential 2nd round opponents for England)

From the BBC:

Ghana's Michael Essien has been ruled out of the World Cup, according to the country's football association (GFA).  The Chelsea midfielder has been struggling with injury and has been told he will not fully recover until the end of July.   The GFA said that the decision was taken after a joint evaluation of his fitness by the national side and his club.

Hope this hasn't already been asked...

IF this player plays in the world cup this summer, he will have played in three world cup finals, for three DIFFERENT countries. Who is it?

[ross4life]

In the same group as Serbia & Germany i don't think Ghana had much of a chance with or without Essien

Vidic v Rooney should be a interesting 2nd round tie

Different or re-named? I suspect its a serbian of some sort.

Sorry for not looking through the whole thread but are we setting up a fantasy WC competition like 4 years ago, throughly enjoyed it then and also the predictions one as well.

A guess would be Savo Milosevic (or some Serb) for Yugoslavia, Serbia and Montenegro, and Serbia
