GB united for Olympic football

"All four associations have received a written assurance from the secretary general of the Federation Internationale de Football Association (Fifa), the international federation for football, that participation in the 2012 Olympic football tournament will in no way compromise their autonomy and independence for other Fifa-sanctioned tournaments, nor will it have any impact on their positions of leadership within the Fifa governance structure."

no wonder the welsh, scots and n. irish are worried with fifa 'guarantees' like that.

i can already hear blatter sharpening his revenge-axe.

TEAM-G-B!

No they are not.

Scotland, Ireland and wales dont want to.

And I agree. This british nonsense is just that. Scotland, England, Ireland and Wales. We are individuals, we play as individual countries. We are individual countries.

You dont see people like france and switzeland going together because they are close to each other.

Or argentina and brazil teaming up. they go seperately.

In the Olympics, there is only Britain.

All 4 FA's know, and have said, they can't stop players playing in it.

FIFA have given their word, for what it's worth, that it won't affect the 4 FA's.

Britain won't win it anyway, and no one cares, do they?

d have said, they can't stop players playing in it.
============================

Yes they can, all they have to do is have a quiet word in the dressing room and say if they do play in the GB team they will never be selected to play for thei country again.
