    Hmmm ... well apart from the fact that if they were English they wouldn't be able to come on and play for Senegal .... apart from that minor obstacle, a sound perception without a hint of racism ... as per ... way to go, Si ... <laugh>

    A Nigerian born from 2 Nigerian parents can play for England and classed as English,but an English player with 2 English parents born in Senegal wouldn't be allowed to play for Senegal or classed as Senegalese .


    And here we have the ******ation of the lefty spastics

    Please identify the particular Senegalese born player in question, your concern for him / her / whatever they identify as, is admirable ... <cheers>

    Iain has 2 Scottish parents (I presume) and was born in Hong Kong .

    He now lives in Spain but he's not a Chinaman.

    If he was born in Hong Kong to 2 Spanish parents the people in Malaga wouldn't pretend he's Chinese to spare his feelings.

    <laugh>


    Tipy toeing around the issue

    I know someone born in Kenya, that has a Kenyan birth certificate, has never been naturalised to another Country, but they're still not Kenyan, and have a British passport.

    But Hong Kong was British up to 1997, is he under 25?

    I remember those cheap crappy toys, from Hong Kong, where the N was printed round the wrong way.

    Boris doesn't need any help, he's been destroying his career pretty well, by himself.

    If Iain spent his entire life in China and and was good at football .
    He could play for Scotland and the rest of the team wouldn't call him Chinese.

    If China wanted to call him up the conversation from the China FA would go something like .

    "Let's call Iain"

    " Who the Scottish guy with the square head ?"

    "Yes him "


    Or the England FA


    "We should call Saka "

    "Who the Nigerian boy that plays for Arsenal ?"


    "Yes"

    Tierry Henry's mum is from Martinique and his father from Guadeloupe so he's French.

    If that helps

    England has been diverse for a long time.

    There was a huge empire, which had a lot to do with that.

    It's just the way things happen, not much you can do about it now.
