    There is some dispute as to the bona fides of that story actually.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socrates_(football_player)
    Contrary to a popular rumour, Sócrates never played University College Dublin F.C. while a student in Ireland.

    Also here :
    Amazingly enough Colman, you're right. "Socrates did play for UCD, but it was way, way back, sometime in the 70s." says Brendan McKenna of the Football Association of Ireland. "He was an attraction at the time, but it was before he played for the Brazilian team. He wouldn't have played much more than a season." That's confirmed by Gerry Callan of the Irish Star, who says he thinks Socrates did play for UCD, but only for the reserves on Saturday's as the first team played on Sunday, and he didn't want to play then. Did anyone see the great man in action for UCD? If so then let us know at the usual address.

    And follow up here :
    More information about Socrates playing for UCD reserves in the 1970s. According to Paul McDonnell, Scorates only played a couple of games because the coach and manager at the time, Dr Terry O'Neill, insisted that he quit smoking. Socrates refused and instead quit the team.

    Hmm. Does reserve team count?

    If it means I'm right, then it does :D

    I think it's a percussion instrument that can be used instead of a drum stick for a more chilled out sound. Either that or the question is flawed
