Think there was a fair few in that side that made it - got a feeling Stephen Gerrard played. Might have to go in the loft and try to find the programme

Wes brown :)

Taken from wiki:
Less than a month later on 12 February, the Drill Field hosted an England Under 16s match against Israel, featuring future Premier League players such as Wes Brown, Paul Robinson, Paul Konchesky and Yossi Benayoun.[7]

On 1 July 1999, the England Under 16s returned to the Drill Field for a match against France with future Premier League players such as Jermaine Pennant, Michael Chopra and Jeremie Aliadiere making appearances.[8]
