Alan Cork ?

The first player to score in all five was Jimmy Willis, ex-Leicester city. (left 1997)
Met him a few months ago, got injured and retired, just before the big money started in football.
Now a black cab driver in Liverpool ( a scruffy cab at that-a TX1)

The Steve Finnan answer is wrong for all those pub quiz folk !

Well done.

I'm guessing Portsmouth, who won it in 1939, as there were no finals during the war.
