    Subject: olympic 2012 British team !!

    should we create an allbritish team for the olympic? the thought of missing out on the football carnival are surely depressing, but certain issues might prevent us from having a team of our own at the coming game. should the british team have a team? if not, why?

     Damn right we should have a GB football team!

     

    Britain is the home of football, its quite stupid why we don't have one.

     

    Have 5 players from each country, which makes a 20 man squad.

    But you would want to be picking the best team, no offence to anyone from N.ireland they would be lucky to get 3 players who desreved to be in the squad. If we had five from each it would put pressure on the manager to make sure there is a player for all nations. In my opinion we shouldn't.

    Need to remember aswell, its still 4 years down the line. Along time away.

     

    We could have a representative from each country and they could nominate 5 players from each country.

     

    Its better to have one that not, I'm just as proud British as I am Scottish.
