New season, a few more random questions with certain biases

1. He went on to be a famous cricketer, but in the summer of 1958, having attracted the interest of LUFC scouts, played alongside Billy Bremner for the club's under 18's. Who was he?

2. I) There is one African country that severed its diplomatic ties with North Korea in 2014. Name it.
ii) There are two NATO members that do not have diplomatic relations with North Korea. Name them
iii) One South American country has the status of 'global partner' with NATO, so on the same basis as, for example, Australia and NZ. Which is it?

3. On January 2nd 2016 a football league fixture will take place between the two teams farthest apart, who are.....

4. Which is the well known London area that has six consecutive consonants in its name?

I'm pleased to note that a number of new members have joined up recently, so you should know that there is no point in googling, Wiki etc the answers for this bit of fun.
Might have to take an interest in the Premier League now....
