Notes

Warner was born in Liverpool, England, but also qualified to represent Trinidad and Tobago internationally and would make his international debut for Trinidad and Tobago in February 2006.
Cahill was born in Sydney, Australia, but also qualified to represent Samoa internationally through his mother, England through his father, and the Republic of Ireland through his grandparents. Cahill represented Samoa (then called Western Samoa) at U-20 level, but during the 2001–02 season he unsuccessfully attempted to overturn a FIFA ruling that prevented him from representing the Republic of Ireland. FIFA changed its eligibility rules in 2004 and Cahill would make his international debut for Australia in March 2004.
Ifill was born in Brighton, England, but also qualified to represent Barbados internationally through his parents and would make his international debut for Barbados in 2004.
Reid was born in Kingston upon Thames, England, and represented them at U-16 level, but also qualified to represent the Republic of Ireland internationally through his grandfather and made his international debut for the Republic of Ireland in 2001.
Bircham was born in Brent, England, but also qualified to represent Canada internationally through his grandfather and made his international debut for Canada in April 1999.
McPhail was born in Westminster, England, but also qualified to represent the Republic of Ireland internationally and made his international debut for the Republic of Ireland in May 2000.
