He spent four years qualifying to play for England, who else would you propose? Andrew Strauss!!!!

From the title of your post , I thought it must be a Muslim - and that Parliamant would have to be recalled.

Phew !!!!

I think he has an English Mum, so half foriegn, well who cares anyway we are terminally sh1te at the moment so maybe he can do somthing.

its a bl**dy disgrace,a scottish prime minister and now this what next?..lol

[echokilo]

why does it matter where he was born? can he do a good job, that's the question surely!!??

Well two of the last three managers of the England football team have been foreign.

And the one in between who was British was CRAP.

And who was the last ENGLISH manager to win the Premier League - none actually.

They have been Ferguson (Scottish), Wenger (French), Mourinho (Portugeese), Dagliesh (Scottish)

And we cannot even win the Eurovision song contest any more either.

Can we do anything ?

[BillySugger]

Sarcasm my dear chap. I may as well asked 'What next ? women playing ? '

[Ethel]

Don't forget Nasser Hussain, an Indian born Muslim.

Hmmm and we're rather quick to claim our 'non-english' sportsmen and women when they win....

I hope we get a foreigner Tennis player who could at least get to the final of Wimbledon if not winning it.
