I never heard of either of them.
The 41 year old would have made good money from football. not enough apparently.
It didn't say they were brothers just that the younger one is 31 and an ex footballer...what you're suggesting is that the elder(41) is his brother and an ex professional international footballer.
I could have swore I read the 31 year old and 41 year old were brothers.
Irish names... could've changed to them?
