I wondered if Alan Gordon :not worth might have done it before Ferguson, but wasn't sure if the arabs would have been in Europe then (don't think they were).

He also played for Motherwell at a time when they were in Europe. I think.

Only say this as I don't believe Dundee played in Europe when he was with them.

3 clubs not 3 teams. That's why we are called Hibernian Football Club and not Hibernian Football Team. :agree:

Counted Hearts twice as it was 2 different Hearts teams. :wink:

Are we giving the currant bun the brains for meaning teams rather than clubs? I guess we'll find out tomorrow when he gives us the answer.

Probably not as it's an hour since he said he was logging off and it would appear that he's still trying to work out how to log off. :greengrin

I'm sure teams and clubs are one of the same and therefore rules out my answer. :agree:

C'mon bluenoseisthecolour. Has anyone answered the question correctly.

One suspects LapsedHibee has cleared up our Pet Huns lack of clarity re: "club" vs "team" debate in the above post.

Darren Jackson is a decent shout - did he get to play in Yoorop with HoMFC??

Have a sneaky feeling that it's a bit too recent to be classed as the first player to play for 4 Scottish teams in Europe as I cannot see there being many if any done it after Pressley. Just a thought of course.

You should see all the weegies faces when they hear Gordon Smith given as the answer to that particular question. They can't quite believe anyone achieved such a feat not playing for one of them.

:agree: Agree, though Kenny Miller will probably feature in the European Cup this year, giving him appearances during three different stints with Scottish clubs, albeit encompassing two spells at Rangers.

Who knows - cheeky wee move for him to one of the third-place contenders in a season or two, bit of a surge by one of them to split the OF, lucky draw and he could be in the record books alongside the legend that is Gordon Smith :greengrin

Still not quite the same as winning the league with three non-OF teams though.

Yup, Hibs, Hearts and Dundee. And he reached the semi finals with two out of the three.

I would say definitely Hibs in Athens, Dundee Utd and Dunfermlline (probably as they were competing in Europe when he was at the clubs) but don't know about Aberdeen. Quite possibly but maybe someone before him is the answer.

I'm guessing he has maybe scored for four different Scottish teams in Europe too.

I'm going out on a limb and say it will be some who's managed to find their way between Dunfermline, Livi, Raith, Motherwell, Dundee etc in the mid-to-late nineties to the mid noughties. Even someone like Jason Dair would probably have three out of four.
