UK Football Team
With the Olympics coming up, plus some comments by the boys at FIFA there's this talk of a United Kingdom football team.
I have to say, I don't think this should be the case. Our international teams are as old as the sport so they should all be kept separate.
However, I do think we should play a British Isles team once a year or every other year. get the best of England, Scotland, Wales, Ulster & Eire to play against another mixed team. Maybe the best of the Iberian Peninsular or Scandinavia. North America (that includes Mexico) can play South America and western Asia can play against eastern Asia. maybe even a fun tournament where they play each other once. And if people are saying that players are playing too many games and are getting burnt out, then limit it to Under 23 year olds like the Olympics.
Anyway, I'm off to work.
I'm never drinking again (I am a liar)
