Yah, I think I''d have Earnshaw as striker, not whomever that name is the originator had up.

Technically Earnshaw is from Zambia... hes just one of those situations where either one of his parents is Welsh, or he ''attributed his footballing development'' to Wales

er... Andy Townsend is more English that the queen! Efan ekoku was born and raised in that far off country of Liverpool!

The real question raised in this thread is why didn''t we sign Jaaskelainen?

My sources say Britain is Scotland and England.  I was not aware Wales was part of either in that sense. The originator of those sources will be drawn and quartered at dawn.

[shaunieboy77 73]

Wales makes up part of the UK... which is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and N Ireland.

 

[shaunieboy77 73]

Agreed.....Townsend is of course English, yet wins caps for Eire. The same with Ekoku for Nigeria. 

Which brings me to the question of should you only be allowed to represent the country you were born in?    Owen Hargreaves , born and raised in Canada then played in Germany..

[/quote]Well at least it''s better than the likes of Marcos Senna and Mariano Pernia. They have no Spanish ancestry, went over to play there in their mid-twenties, and ended up playing for them in the last World Cup.

Britain (or actually the United Kingdom of Great Britain) is Scotland and England - but Wales is solely "owned" by England - it''s a Principality within it. Britain is the island, and includes Wales - Great Britain is the union and only represents England and Scotland.This comes with the stipulation that I''m drunk, stupid and not sure of what I''m saying...

Not that you are really interested in the answer of course, but anything to deflect attention away from your foolish original post......

So Welsh is British, is that what you''re telling me?  If so, I apologize for getting it wrong re: Earnshaw. 

[Robert N. LiM 4,501]

England+Scotland+Wales = "Great Britain"England+Scotland+Wales+Northern Ireland= "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"England+Scotland+Wales+Northern Ireland+the Republic of Ireland = "the British Isles" (a geographical term, not a political one)

[Houston Canary 0]

So Welsh people consider themselves Brits just as people of England and Scotland do?  Or is this something they do begrudgingly? In a soccer riot between English and Croat fans, if some Welsh came along, would they jump in to help their British bretheren, the English, or would they stand by and laugh or even contribute to the Croat effort?
