If he got a cap, would it devestate Ipswich fans? They seem vey touchy on the subject...

if he played for england i'm pretty sure it wouldn't affect me or my family so i'm not that bothered to be honest. as for holt ever actually getting a start in an england shirt , maybe he will but it would have to be specially made for his ample boosom and have built in elbow pads for his frequent dives. in my opinion.

Would have no problem with it at all. Think he does his job very well and if we had someone with his passion, workrate and commitment then we wouldnt be in the position which we have been in for the last few years.
He may have annoyed Town fans for going down easily in the Delaney incident but if Delaney had judged it right he would of cleared it first time. He tried to be clever got caught out and Holt made him pay for it. I dont think you will find any modern player that does anything different when it comes to taking advantage of a situation.
 
Cue the debate on which club in East Anglia has supplied the most England Footballers!

Mick Mills, Terry Butcher, Eric Gates, Paul Mariner, Ray Crawford, David Johnson, Kevin Beattie.....oh and Sir Alf & Sir Bobby.

... and they reckon we will be devastated if Grunt Holt gets an England Cap! <laugh>

Exactly! <ok>

I would be slightly amused to see Holt playing for England, and if it happened I'd wish him well (sort of)...

What would be really amusing would be the on-line multiple orgasmic reaction of the Budgies on here if ever it happened!

<ok>

it really is amazing that such a small team can supply such a list! Could even make you proud to be a blue
 
I know Tractorbhoy and it doesn't tell the whole story!

The 1980/81 side contained 10 full international capped players, the only one that wasn't capped was Paul Cooper!

Unfortunately that last stat doesnt quite work with caps handed out for nothing these days. The team that lost at blackpool without a shot on target this season had 10 internationally capped players in it (somehow)
