The current breed certainly would not appear to blend in at a MENSA convention. 

During a footballing career including Limerick FC, Galway Utd, Waterford Utd and Limerick 37 Derek was studying at University Limerick and placement to Blackburn Rovers Fc where he continued his Applied Science Bachelors at University of Cumbria.  He hung on in England, stayed with Blackburn before moving as Head of Sports Science to Preston North End where he completed his BA from Univ of Cumbria.
