He made his debut for the team in their last home-field game against defending champions their rivals and scored all six scores in a 6-2 victory - featuring a 32-minute opening period triple.

Collectively, the ex- top-flight footballers have claimed 15 big trophies and transferred for combined transfer fees of around £123 million.

Well-Known Figures and International Stars

Ireland began turning out for the side in preseason this season through good mate and present team player Blake Norton, and the former Irish midfielder then asked other ex-pros, who all play in a weekly nine-a-side game, to participate.

Ex- Senegalese forward Oumar Niasse, who netted 12 scores in 65 top-flight games for Everton and still attends their matches at Goodison Park, also made his debut against Collegiate OB - who are located in Liverpool and wear an Blue warm-up gear as their uniform.

"My friend Stephen Ireland said 'come and play, it's good fun'," commented the striker.

"Then he told me we were playing a side from Liverpool and the shock I had when I noticed them wearing Everton shirts - I say this is wrong for me!

"If you still enjoy football and you feel you can still do it, anywhere you can kick a ball, what are you going to choose?

"The people who turn up and watch are pleased and to give a day if they see us competing there and to ask us queries - it's really about the joy of us getting a place we can play, with structure of course."

Such is the strength in depth at Wythenshawe, Niasse made his debut at defender.

"That's a bit different but then, I love running and just go forward - I'm not defending that much," he said.

"I warn my centre-back 'I'm not staying' and that I'm just going to continue attacking.

"That movement is what I'm after. It's good fun."

'Surreal Feeling

Along with the forward's 6 goals on his first game, Stephen Ireland has scored 8 in three games for the side, while Boyd hit 5 on his first appearance and Lescott, a centre-half by trade, scored a hat-trick in one game as a striker.

Wythenshawe are top of the Premier Tier with three victories from three and a GD of +19.

Paul Barrow, 38, who features on the flank for the opposition, faced ex- Wigan defender Maynor Figueroa on the weekend - and had to tell his nine-year-old boy who Emile Heskey was.

Figueroa has appeared at two World Cups for Honduras, in addition to playing in over two hundred top-flight games.

"It was going round like a rumor they had these ex-Premier League players," said the player.

"I think I was a little starstruck facing Figueroa to be honest.

"Even Emile [Heskey] came on and he's got 60-odd English appearances.

"We competed well for a good 20 mins but then we had a man sent off and it was hard.

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

"They were all friendly, shaking our hands after the game - it was like playing a group of regular fellas.

"Now we can't wait for the return match."

We Will Still Win the League'
