    Mrs McGinn's Boys

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

    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.

    United we stand here....

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

    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?

    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_o...tball_families and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...tball_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

    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.

    We should pump non stop Barry White into their house so we can get a whole team of McGinns.

    Pump in some Justin Bieber doesn't have quite the same ring to it. Stick with the Barry.
