Well-Known Names and International Stars

Ireland started playing for the side during preseason this summer through good mate and current team teammate Blake Norton, and the ex- Republic of Ireland midfielder then asked additional ex-pros, who all play in a midweek nine-a-side game, to participate.

Former Senegal forward Oumar Niasse, who netted 12 goals in sixty-five Premier League matches for the Toffees and even now attends their home games, also had his first appearance against the opposition - who are based in Liverpool and wear an Blue training kit as their strip.

"A friend Stephen Ireland said 'join and have a game, it's a laugh'," commented the striker.

"After that he told me we were playing a side from the city and the surprise I had when I noticed them wearing Blue kits - I thought this is strange for me!

"When you still enjoy football and you know you can still do it, anywhere you can play, what are you going to choose?

"The spectators who come and watch are pleased and to make someone's day if they see us playing there and to pose us questions - it's more like the pleasure of us having a place we can enjoy football, with organisation of course."

So great is the squad depth at Wythenshawe, he made his debut at defender.

"That's a little different but then, I enjoy running and just move forward - I'm not defending that much," he said.

"I tell my defender 'I'm not staying' and that I'm just going to continue attacking.

"The movement is what I'm looking for. It's enjoyable."

Dreamlike' Feeling

In addition to Cisse's six goals on his first game, Ireland has scored 8 in three games for Wythenshawe, while Boyd scored 5 on his first appearance and Lescott, a defender by position, notched a triple in one game up front.

The team are leading of the Premier Tier with 3 victories from three and a goal difference of +19.

One opponent, 38, who plays on the flank for the opposition, faced ex- Wigan full-back Figueroa on Sunday - and had to tell his nine-year-old son who Emile Heskey was.

He has appeared at 2 global tournaments for his country, in as well as playing in over 200 top-flight matches.

"The news was spreading like a rumor they had all these former top-flight stars," remarked Barrow.

"I felt I was a bit awestruck facing him to be honest.

"Even Emile [Heskey] got on and he's has over 60 England caps.

"We competed well for a solid 20 mins but then we had a player dismissed and it was tough.

"Our group literally have not ceased chatting about it - I was phoning my mum and sibling on the way home.

"The opponents were all friendly, shaking our hands after the match - it was like facing a bunch of regular fellas.

"Now we are eager for the return fixture."

'We'll Still Win the League'
