Malcolm Butler, Full-back post-war, won one Irish cap in 1939 while with Blackpool.
John McCandless, a left-winger with Stanley in 1923, won five Irish caps between 1912 and 1921.
Pat Nelis, striker, was transferred to Nottingham Forest for a record fee in 1922, and won an Irish cap later that year.

Despite all the Scottish connections, I cannot think of a single Scottish full cap, but Ian Gibson, who played with Stanley in 1959, won Scotland U-23 honours in the 60s.
