[quote user="Splendid Rush"]Very impressive Shuck![/quote]

Two interesting ones-Gonsalez changed his name to Frank Peed during his career in England (19 apps for us, 6 goals) whilst Laxton''s family were resident in Brazil as his Father was an engineer there.Might have already been mentioned of course-Kevin Keelan was born in India.

Perfectly calm here Morty, you must have read my reply the wrong way, genuinely thought you might wanna find out more.

Leroy fer could count as Curacao as well under the Jackie Charlton ROI act 2015. Had the option to play with them.

[quote user="Crabbycanary3"]Am I missing something here, but isn''t nationality and born in, considered the same thing?[/quote]In the case of children born to British forces while serving abroad, regardless of what country they are born in, the child is a British Citizen and passport holder. They have no right to any kind of dual nationality.If British forces children born in Germany, for example, weren''t given British citizenship, then they would be required to carry out national service in the German military.

Cheers Morty, I was thinking it was a general question as opposed to a military one. Could the (military) child decide later in life to take up the nationality of their birth?
