Yes he is... :lol:


No he's not. Just because you play for a country doesn't make you that nationality.

Clinton morrison played for Ireland despite never having set foot there before being called up :lol:

Tabb is a londoner, have you never heard him speak?

Just because he's not Irish-born, doesn't mean he's not Irish. He could have Irish parents and his family could have a strong Irish heritage. If this was the case, I'm sure he'd consider himself more Irish than English. This is pure speculation, of course...

Feds isn't that big, so not him.

I hear Kebe is a Black Belt in Origami. So not him.

I would say Long or Griffin. Griffin being the more.......agressive of the two.

If Georgia is anything like Uzbekistan (to be fair all foreign countries are the same), he's probably grown up fighting on the streets and would be no match for the ponces here...

Tabbers has a next to his name on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading_fc, but it also says "Flags indicate national team as has been defined under FIFA eligibility rules. Players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality." So everybody's right.

Christ, you're whatever Nationality that you FEEL you are. End of. Whether anyone else agrees is by-the-by.

But back to the point yes Tabb would win, naturally.

My parents are foreign-born. I take my nationality as half my dad's, half my mum's (neither of which are English). I am a British citizen though. I just don't see my own nationality as English.

Lawrie Sanchez was born in reading of an English mother and an Ecuadorean father, so that clearly made him Irish !

Having British passport but 4 national sides confuses the whole nationality thing for us, you can play for one home nation despite having next to no real link to that specific country. Matt Le T could have played for any of the 4 despite being 100% Channel Islander.

Having said that once you have represented one of the home nations any sensible definition would make you of that nation - so Tabb is clealry Irish as he has represented them. Quirky FIFA rules of course eman he could now change his mind and become English...

As for the fight, I'd reckon Shane Long would be a contender....
