First-class or any player?[edit]

Is the inclusion criteria for this list simply first-class players or are we looking for anyone who turned out in any match for any side related to MCC? There are a lot of sides apparently linked to MCC that didn't play under just the name MCC for example - and it's easy to find chaps with articles who didn't actually play first-class cricket.

I've taken out the ones who played no first-class cricket at all, but I don't have either the time or inclination to work through the entire train-wreck and take out the ones who didn't play for MCC at FC level (or at all in some cases). 20+ PRODed as never playing first-class and, in most cases, us not knowing anything about them either.
