A referendum is being held on Thursday, 23 June to decide whether Britain should leave or remain in the European union.

Well question i wanted to know is how will this affect footy??

If we leave EU......

Will it be hard for teams to buy European players easily?

I've heard France and Germany will try to ban England from Euros.

Also I've wondered if England are banned from Euros in the future will this affect our domestic clubs fron Europe aswel??..

What a load of bow-locks.

I really do wonder where you come up with the this kind of naive cr@p.

Vote out.   :buttrock

FIFA and UEFA are great examples of how consolidating power into single organisations works to everyones detriment.

I guess with players from EU will have to get work permits but maybe the requirements won't be as strict.

Yes noticed the date but the discussion still stands. It all depends on what happens in June.

What about Switzerland, Russia etc mate.

I'm an Aussie so this is just a stab in the dark but I don't think they are in the EU either. Though doesn't seem to affect the fact they are still part of Europe competition

Think there is an application form at the end as well  :laugh:

Israel Can't play in asia and joined uefa so that is what makes them eligible. I guess the rest must be members of uefa also.

Kazakstan which has a long, long border with China is a member of UEFA.  But for some reason folks question whether the UK would be.

Go figure... British insecurity at it's best. Let's all apologise.  Grow a pair guys.
