NOT many clubs can boast having two full international goalkeepers in the ranks, but York City can after Wales legend Neville Southall was named as substitute yesterday.

While number one Alan Fettis, a Northern Ireland international, kept a clean sheet against Barnet, the 41-year-old former Everton great kept the bench warm in place of youngster Russ Howarth - who was himself away on international duty training with the England Under-18s squad before their coming clash with Israel.

Southall, who won 92 caps and many medals during a glorious 17 years with the Merseyside club, has been a goalkeeping coach at Bootham Crescent since the back end of last season.

And he was eligible to come on for the Minstermen after signing non-contract forms to give City cover during Howarth's absence.

Had he come on, it would have been his first competitive match since last season, when he played in the Premiership for Bradford City in a 2-1 home defeat against Leeds United during an injury crisis at Valley Parade.
