... that, despite a history as a reserve Gaelic football goalkeeper, Paul Callaghan played in association football matches against English clubs Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United?

Source 1: "…Paul kept his options open by continuing to play soccer at a decent level… playing with Omagh and was first choice goalkeeper when the club was thrown into the media spotlight following the Omagh bombing in August '98. He played for Omagh in high-profile fundraising games the following year against Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool".
Source 2: "2 - Paul Callaghan The reserve goalkeeper, who was Gary Walsh's understudy, hailed from Burt and took until 1997 to make his championship debut".
Source 3: "Burt's Paul Callaghan - Donegal's reserve keeper in 1992 - was first choice in 1997, playing twice, and started the 1998 season… only to suffer a groin injury and lose his place to Blake".
