Seriously, I reckon that if this keeps up we could well become the 'stepping stone' to the Big 6. (As long as SD and his crew are here).

I've had a very brief look online but can find no relevant answer. Something like this has to be the right question on Google and I'm at work so don't have the time to try it.

Anyone know?
We had Tom Heaton and Paul Robinson, both England keepers, just last season

I suppose that is technically correct (I'd actually forgotten about Robinson - oh dear) but I meant CURRENT goalkeepers, as in currently in the England squad at the time (Robinson was a tad past his sell-by date with regard to England). Take your point though.
