I've verified this - but an amazing statistic
There are 3 players, who between them have started a league game in every season from 1931/32 until this season 2019/20 (minus the war years where no official games)
Name them.... |  |

When you say ‘league’ are you talking about the 92? |  |

Mostly top 2 tiers for first 2 players, 3rd player the same but in a different major European league | |

Well there's that Japenese chap who's still playing in his fifties so he's probably in the team. |  |

Buffon 95-Now
So we just need the 65-95 chap.
Any old goalkeepers? John Burridge or someone? Shilton even? |  | | |

Peter Shilton was 66-97 so I'm assuming he is the second one. [Post edited 29 Jun 2020 21:54]

Yep, amazingly their careers only overlap by Shilton playing 9 games in 96/97 after missing the 95/96 season where Buffon made his debut | |

If Peter Shilton had played a game in 95/96 that would work but he didn't for whatever reason that year | |

Off topic but I read yesterday that Matthews was still playing, and effectively, for a Post Office team in Malta when he was sixty four. |  |
