Glad Rich picked an easy one.

Was he an international?

Well he was in Escape to Victory, does that count?

[Rich]

It was John Wark.

[MDK]

Egg and Chippo

Too slow, TCO!

[Colly]

For some reason I was utterly convinced that John Wark briefly went to Norwich in the mid 90s, Wikipedia has finally shown I was going mental.

[Lineker]

Myke got in there first. It was Chippo. Smashing name!

[The Lusophone]

Laurie Cunningham, first black England player iirc?

[MDK]

No.

He wasn't the first black English player.

But apart from that you are correct.

Viv Anderson was the first black England international wasn't he?

No idea who that player is though.

[lanky316]

Presumably a survivor of the Munich disaster but I don't know enough about any of them.

[MDK]

Wiki says Ben Odeje was the first black player (to play at any international level, England schoolboys >_>)
