Mrs McGinn's Boys

[hibbyfraelibby]

Is she the only footballers mother to raise three sons who have all scored goals for the same different teams?

[The Count]

Have three brothers scored for Hibs before in our history??

[Magpie]

Is there another son we don’t know about? 😅

[lord bunberry]

I don’t know if they all scored for St Mirren, but if they did I doubt that 3 brothers have all scored for 2 different teams never mind 1.

nope, but John does have a twin sister

[Magpie]

Women’s team looking for any new players? 😁

[Irish_Steve]

Yeah, all the McGinn brothers have scored for St. Mirren too. Surely that is so sort of record

[lord bunberry]

stephen has 4 and paul 3
I’m sure sjm has a few as well. That’s quite unbelievable that they’ve all scored for 2 different teams.

Well, there's a challenge! If I had the energy I'd set about researching that but I don't have. Maybe Google can supply?

That is some goal tally for Villa already.

The Wallace brothers (Danny, Ray and Rod) all played in the Southampton team at the same time which is pretty impressive in itself. However, only Rod and Danny scored for Southampton, leaving the McGinn's way out in front, as far as I can see - still working on it tho

Edit:

Did a bit of digging around (ie Wiki!) and it did have two good lists of footballing brother/sons/cousins etc Here's the links as they are quite interesting though - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Scottish_football_families and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English_association_football_families

From that list though, I see that it three brothers have scored for one team before - Frank. Alex and George Walker for Queens Park

Allan Clarke (he of Leeds United fame and scorer of the winning goal in the 1972 FA cup), had four other brothers who played football. At various points, Allan, Derek, Kelvin and Wayne Clarke played for Walsall with three of them scoring for the club

And three Milburn brothers also scored for Leeds United - George, Jim and Jack (cousin of the more famous Jackie Milburn)

However, as yet I can't find three brothers who have score for two different teams

Any other nerds out there lol

[danhibees1875]

Not sure if they all ever scored but Livi played 4 brothers, all in the same game.

Not a challenger for this particular crown but the Worthington brothers did pretty well. Frank and Dave scored for Halifax but their brother Bob played for them but without scoring.

Impressive tally of League appearances between them though - getting on for around 1,600 between them. Nephew, Gary Worthington weighed in with approximately another 200 League appearances too.
