I read this in a book the other day, but not the answer.

15 people have played for England since the second world war who have surnames containing "tt". I suspect there are more now (I can think of Lescott and Walcott), but can anyone get the 15? (or any new ones)

Edit to keep up to date:
Walcott (Post 95)
Lescott (Post 95)
Matthews
Blissett
Mabbutt
Butt (post 95)
Platt
Sutton
Batty
Beattie (Post 95)
Bonetti
Barrett
Ricketts (post 95)
Cottee
McDermott
Little
Springett
Scott
Froggatt R
Froggatt J

ta daaaaaaaaaaaaa

In my 1991 edition of the Guinness Football Encyclopedia, it spells Blisset with one 't'. Sorry.
