You have a place of birth.
You have one or more nationalities.
You also have a footballing nationality.

Shorey, Le Fondre, Morrison, Guthrie, McCarthy, Bignall, Cummings, Obita, S Taylor and Samuel are our current English players, for that is there football nationality. Players who were born in England but have represented a different nation are not classed as English on the football pitch.

:roll: Yawn.

--------------------------Federici(AUS)---------------------------
---Kelly(ROI)-Pearce(ROI)-Mariappa(JAM)-Shorey(ENG)---
Kebe(MLI)-Leigertwood(ANT)-Carrico(POR)-McAnuff(JAM)
---------------Pogrebnyak(RUS)---Hunt(ROI)------------------

Gunter(WAL), Gorkss(LAT), Harte(ROI), McCleary(JAM), Robson-Kanu(WAL), Roberts(GRN), Church(WAL)

We could actually field a decent 18-man squad of full internationals, with no sub keeper though. Special mention also to Gunnarsson(ICE) and Karacan(TUR subs).

He'll decide he's from somewhere like São Tomé and Príncipe, The Seychelles or Papua New Guinea soon so he can get a game too...
