There's a claret and blue theme to today's football quiz in the Guardian, no questions relating directly to the club that started it all though.

Which international player scored ten goals in his native country before being signed by a top Premiership side but only netted once after his arrival?  He was then sold on to another European side where he failed to score at all (although he did get one for his country during his spell at this club) before being purchased by a different Premiership side where he only managed to find the net once.  He was then off-loaded to his third English team, where he failed to score at all. Who is he?

Brett Ormorod scoring for Blackpool last night means he is now the first player to score for the same team in all 4 divisions in the Football League.

Who is the only player to have scored a hatrick in each division?

buck-toothed, machine-gun celebrating Albion cast off.

He's also the only professional footballer who can eat an apple through a letterbox

Apparently Dean Windass did that for Hull and Ross Jenkins did it for Watford as well.

correct

For the record,
 Schmeichel started his career in Denmark as a striker which is why he managed to score some goals there.
Not too surprisingly he failed to keep up this record whilst playing as a goalkeeper for Manchester United, Sporting Lisbon, Aston Villa and Manchester City.
However he did score three more goals as follows:
(a) a header from a late corner for Manchester United against Rotor Volgrograd,
(b) a penalty for Denmark in a friendly game against Belgium (whilst he was with Sporting Lisbon), and
(c) a volley for Aston Villa against Everton, after coming forward for a late corner.
