What is everyones thoughts on this? Obviously I'm against this but can at least see the reasoning, given every other sport at the Olympics is represented under the british flag, rather than induvidual nations.
Question is....who would manage the team?
Obviously like any other sport, the best players should be picked...even if unfortunately it would mean 11 englishman. As much as I think England are generally an overated football team, I can't think of many Scottish/Welsh/Irish players who could get a game.
@Angus, can you think of any Scot, who you'd consider an automatic starter in the 11? I was thinking Mcgregor / Gordon since England have a poor goalie, but then both have had poor seasons so far as well. I genuinely feel Boyd would be a serious threat given the chance, but then again he may be found wanting against bigger teams (debatable+we'd argue this to death I'm sure)
Would maybe have Stephen Ireland in the squad to..........but then 2 of the players I'd have, both refuse to play for their country....so where that would leave them for Team GB I don't know. :S
.....then again Olympic Football
