Countries from Northern Ireland to New Zealand and Scotland to St Kitts and Nevis have been represented by ex-Halifax players, including some at previous World Cups.
How many of these players do you recognise turning out for The Shaymen over the years?
1. Jamie Vardy
Probably the most famous of all. Vardy was sensational during his season-and-a-bit at Town, going on to enjoy a magnificent career, winning the Premier League with Leicester and being capped 26 times for England, scoring seven goals and playing at the World Cup. Photo: Iconic Media
