Club career

Quashie began his career in London with Queens Park Rangers, making his League debut against Manchester United at Old Trafford in December 1995, impressing despite his club's 2-1 defeat.

International career

After several impressive performances for QPR, Quashie was awarded England Under-21 and 'B' honours. Despite being a former England U21 player, he was also eligible for Scotland or Ghana. When Scotland manager Berti Vogts gave him the opportunity to play international football, Quashie switched his allegiance to the Scots and made his debut against Estonia. He scored a goal in his second game - a 4-1 win over Trinidad and Tobago, which cemented his place as a first team regular for his adoptive country.

This article has been tagged since June 2007.

Quashie currently shares the record for the most relegated player in the history of the English Premier League - a record he shares with Hermann Hreiðarsson, Nathan Blake and Ashley Ward. He has been relegated a total of four times- Queens Park Rangers 1995-96; Nottingham Forest 1998-99; Southampton 2004-05 and West Bromwich Albion 2005-06. His current side West Ham, however, miraculously survived relegation in the 2006-07 season on the final day after signing him in the January transfer window and perhaps, finally, his curse has been lifted and he can be relieved of his nickname - Nigel 'The Relegator' Quashie. The FA Premier League (often referred to as the Barclays English Premier League for sponsorship reasons) comprises the top 20 football clubs in the league system of English football. ... Hermann Hreiðarsson (born July 11, 1974 in Reykjavík) is an Icelandic football player. ... This article belongs in one or more categories. ... Ashley Ward (born November 24, 1970 in Manchester) was a professional footballer in England. ...


Notwithstanding that, Quashie was a member of the Portsmouth side that gained promotion to the Premier League in 2003, but survived in 2004-05 after he left for Southampton.
