    Know the Englishman, but cheated slightly to get the answer (was confirming another incorrect name when I saw his name and put 2+2 together)

    Some Italians without names ending in vowels. Don't leap to the tip of the tongue, though :D
    Umberto Caligaris and Mario Varglien both WC winners 1934
    Pietro Ferraris WC winner 1938
    Pietro Vierchowod and Ivano Bordon both WC winners 1982

    Vierchowod, played for Milan & Juventus during the mid 90's & I'm pretty sure he played for Italy during the the early 90's

    The names are
    David and Pierce O'Leary
    - thats and old pub quiz one alright. Actually - I would have answered sooner but I thought the question was looking for two sets of brothers - I was racking my brains to figure out who had been on the same team since...

    More Pats and Shels players: B.Prenderville, C.Hawkins, T.Molloy, T.Morgan, and pretty sure T.O'Dowd fits in as well.

    That's 16?
