Biography:
A former England Under-21 goalkeeper, Lee Camp declared his interest in playing for Northern Ireland in September 2010 having become frustrated at his failure to break into the England senior squad. Eligible for Northern Ireland through his Belfast-born grandfather, the required FIFA clearance for changing countries was received the following February and he was called into the Northern Ireland squad for the first time for a Euro 2012 double-header against Serbia and Slovenia the following month. After much discussion as to whether he would go straight into the starting eleven, Nigel Worthington's decision was made easier as Maik Taylor withdrew from the squad due to an injury and Camp started in Belgrade.

Northern Ireland's regular number one through the last year of Nigel Worthington's management, Camp's position came under pressure when Roy Carroll returned to the squad. In September 2012, after finding himself relegated to the bench, he withdrew from the international squad for "personal reasons" and he has not returned since. His club career likewise suffered and in January 2013 he was released by new Forest manager Alex McLeish, moving on to Norwich City on a short-term deal.

Camp provided goalkeeping cover for the Canaries for the remainder of the 2012/13 season, making his Premier League debut as a substitute in a 1-1 draw at Sunderland following the sending-off of Mark Bunn. When Bunn returned from suspension and regular number one John Ruddy returned to fitness Camp found himself as third choice and his contract was not renewed at the end of the campaign.

Early in the following season he was given the opportunity to remain in the Premier League, again on a short-term contract, with West Brom who were suffering a goalkeeper shortage. He never made it beyond the bench at the Hawthorns and when the club's more established custodians returned to fitness Camp was allowed to go on loan to Bournemouth. After good form with the Cherries his deal was made permanent in the January 2014 transfer window. He played 13 time as Bournemouth claimed promotion to the Premier League for the first time, but having been displaced by Artur Boruc he was released early in that historic campaign and subsequently joined Rotherham.

Biography:
Daryl Fordyce established himself as an 18 year-old in Portsmouth's reserve team, his attacking midfield play earning comparisons with Trevor Brooking. He was sent on loan to Bournemouth in February 2006 to earn some senior experience and made his debut in a home game against Oldham.

A star for Northern Ireland at underage level, an early highlight was his four goal haul in a 4-1 European Under-19 Championship qualifier against Serbia & Montenegro in May 2006. Thereafter he was a regular in the Under-21 squad, scoring on his debut to give Northern Ireland an early lead in Germany before the home side came back to win 2-1.

Unable to progress to the Portsmouth firstteam, Fordyce was released in 2007 and signed for Glentoran. He was initially used in an unfavoured right-wing role by the Glens and was then over-shadowed by the signing of Keith Gillespie. Transfer-listed in a cost-cutting move during the summer of 2010, he opened the 2010/11 season with five goals in a 6-1 win over Lisburn Distillery and earned the Carling Player of the Month award for August as he was at last deployed in a central attacking role.

Fordyce made a shock move across Belfast in the summer of 2011 to join Linfield. In his first season with the Blues he claimed Irish League and Cup winner's medals. Mid-way through the 2012/13 season it was announced that he would be moving to Canada. He signed for FC Edmonton where he was joined by ex-Linfield teammates, Albert Watson and Robbie Garrett. Aside from a brief spell with Cincinnati, Fordyce remained with Edmonton until they folded in November 2017, at which point he was the franchise's record goalscorer.

Biography:
Josh McQuoid's most impressive performance in a green shirt to date was a two goal salvo in an Under-21 international against Scotland.

A hattrick for Bournemouth against Tranmere in the FA Cup saw McQuoid called into the Northern Ireland squad as a late inclusion for a November 2010 friendly against Morocco. A week later he scored another hattrick as Bournemouth defeated Walsall 3-0. He then made his international debut as a half-time substitute against the Africans, and it was a foul on him that earned Northern Ireland a late penalty from which they equalised.

On 25th November 2010 McQuoid joined Millwall on an initial loan which became a permanent move valued at around £600,000 when the transfer window opened the following January.
 He failed to impress at the New Den and joined Burnley mid-way through the following season as striking cover. He was then allowed to return to Bournemouth on a three year deal in exchange for Scott Malone.


McQuoid made a rapid return to the Championship as Bournemouth were promoted as League One runners-up. Having struggled to make the Cherries side at the higher level, mainly due to injury, McQuoid joined Peterborough on loan and scored the opener as the Posh defeated Chesterfield in the 2014 Johnstone's Paint Trophy final at Wembley.

Prior to the start of the 2014/15 season McQuoid joined Coventry on a loan deal through to January.

Biography:
Neil Masters was an incredibly gifted player, who had it not been for a succession of injuries would surely have won senior international recognition. As it was he had to make do with a Youth cap and brief inclusion in the Northern Ireland squad under Bryan Hamilton in August 1995.

A left-back, possessing a fierce shot and superb crossing ability, Masters was one of a number of talented youngsters who emerged at Bournemouth under Harry Redknapp. Described as "true class" and "the best left-back the club ever had", his name was linked with moves to Blackburn, Spurs and Arsenal, but it was Wolves that claimed his signature in December 1993, in a deal that could have netted the Cherries over £600,000 had things gone differently. As it was he was quickly beset by leg and back injuries, limiting him to just nine games in his first season and a half at Molineux. When ex-England boss Graham Taylor arrived at the club in 1994 he quickly grew tired of the perennially injured youngster, accused him of malingering and placed him on the transfer-list at the end of the 1994/95 season.

Masters' reaction, to what many regarded as a crass and insensitive action by Taylor, was to work hard at regaining full fitness through the summer of 1995. So impressed was Taylor by Masters' pre-season displays that he started Wolves' opening three matches of the 1995/96 season. It was at this point that Bryan Hamilton saw fit to award Masters his first call-up to the senior squad for the European Championship Qualifier against Portugal. In a much changed panel from the previous 2-1 defeat by Latvia, it was previous squad regular Steve Morrow who made way. Masters however picked-up an injury against Sunderland on 26 August 1995 (which turned out to be his final appearance in Wolves colours) that cost him the opportunity of international recognition. Hamilton was forced to recall Morrow, who started in a 1-1 draw in Lisbon.

In March 1997, as Masters began to return to fitness, he made a cut-price move to Gillingham. He had to wait until 9 August to make his Gills debut, in a 0-0 draw with Preston, but was soon struck down by injuries once again. The eleven appearances he made for the club, at left-back or left-wing-back, gave Gillingham's fans scant opportunity to see Masters at his best, and in March 1999, having not played in ten months, his contract was cancelled.

Still Masters battled on. He sought medical treatment from specialists and spiritual healers from all over the world and actually returned to Gillingham on trial in October 2000. There was also talk of him moving to Glenavon, but eventually he moved to Norway with Moss FK where he played two seasons.

Biography:
A footballing half-back, Joe Miller was famed for his reading of the game, his ability to intercept a pass and feed his forward line. He served a long apprenticeship in Scottish Junior football and lower down the Scottish League. He established himself with Aberdare Athletic, then playing in Division Three (South) of the Football League. Despite the Welsh club finishing bottom of the league and failing to gain re-election at the end of the 1926/27 season, Miller had done enough to convince Middlesbrough manager Herbert Bamlett of his worth.

Miller stepped into a Boro team ready to challenge for promotion to Division One and, although he put in some early unsteady performances, by the end of his first campaign at Ayresome Park he had missed just one game and claimed a Division Two championship medal. He retained his place throughout what was a disappointing campaign back in the top-flight as Boro finished bottom to suffer an immediate relegation. He showed great resilience to bounce back and was regarded as the lynchpin of the Middlesbrough side which claimed a second Division Two title in three seasons.

Finally, just short of his thirtieth birthday, Miller was awarded long overdue international recognition. He made his debut in a satisfactory 2-2 draw against Wales in February 1929, adding a second cap three weeks later. This time things were much more uncomfortable as the Irish half-back line was heavily criticised for its “weakness” in the face of a highly skilled Scottish forward-line, the Scots running out 7-3 winners at Windsor Park. Still Miller held onto his place for the next season’s opening international fixture, a 3-0 defeat by England, again at Windsor, in which Boro teammate George Camsell scored twice.

Back in Division One, Miller’s place was starting to come under pressure. He played just twenty times as mid-table security was achieved. By November 1930, having not featured in the first eleven all season, Miller was returned to Scotland to join Hibernian. Still he was far from finished. After suffering relegation with Hibs he joined Division Three (South) Bournemouth & Boscombe, where he played on until his mid-thirties. Miller then returned to Ireland where he offered his experience to the “new” Ballymena United.

Miller's career may also have taken in spells with Port Glasgow Athletic (prior to joining Morton) and Ards (prior to joining Bournemouth) though further corroboration is required.
