As most are aware we have a chance to put together a GB football team for the 2012 Olympics.The Scotland FA have just said they dont want to do it.....................
Is this because they know it would probably be the England team with maybe about 4 or 5 others and they have very little chance of anyone being considered.

But the olympcis is an under-23 tournament gerrardisgod with only 3 over age players or so per squad. So most of those players woudln't be involved.

No sh!t Columbus?

All them players will be over aged for the 2012 olympics, and lets face it, Giggs is the only decent welsh footie player they're likely to ever produce. so no, it'll be a sh!t team.

i thank u

Are you THICK? ???  Get your facts straight before posting please, and even if it wasnt a 'under 23' tournament, do you really think Giggs is still gonna be playing in twelve b.loody years....FFS!!!!

Republic Of Ireland is its OWN COUNTRY and not part of Great Britain!!!
