One thing is for sure, team GB won't win the gold medal now.

I'm sure we will do a good job of snatching defeat from the jaws of success

Really dissapointed.

Realise that it will be mostly English players and rightly so, but thought a Scottish coach would be better. Or failing that at least a decent English coach.

Gk, probably out of Hart/McGreggor/Gordon/Hennesey
Walker/Jones/(Smalling/Evans)/Gibbs
(Walcott/Chamberlain)Ramsey/Wilshere/Bale
Wellbeck/Sturridge/Carroll

Likes of Henderson, Naughton, Evans, Barkley, Frimpong, D.Wilson, Goodwillie etc making up the squad.

Possibly Beckham as well as the other older player.

Walter Smith would have been a good choice.

The miserable Scots don't want their players selected (quote Craig Brown) The Welsh say it is demeaning their existance as an independant nation and the Irish are not too keen either.

If the players are called up it will be their decision.

and Beckham wants to play but Stuart says he will only pick fit players and hasn't seen him play recently because he has been concentrating on watching under 21's

In other words Beckham...No thanks, your past it now

I know that! ...it's not what I was saying. The Scots don't want their players attending a GB team. It is well documented

And for the record, it would be nice to see a mixed bunch of players before you accuse me of anything

Glad to see you are not homophobic Webbo

Renegade .............. I thought that Mackail-Smith worked hard against Spain the other night. I would also consider taking Fletcher as well.

I don't like the idea of Beckham going. He will use it to promote himself rather than add quality to the team

Scots don't wear kilts for reasons you might think

It's only Under 23's though so Mackail-Smith and Fletcher would be too old, or need to be one of the 2/3 older guys that are allowed which is unlikely.

i bow to your greater knowledge sir

The whole thing is daft anyway. political correctness will ensure the best team doesn't get picked.
Wait a minute SP is picking the team, he won't know what PC means

Team GB:
Lee Camp

Chris Gunter Ashley Williams Chris Smalling Ryan Bertrand

Tom Cleverly Aaron Ramsey David Beckham Ryan Giggs Gareth Bale

Danny Wellbeck


I'm not sure if England players at Euro's will be selected, so I've omitted the players likely to make that squad.

I would like to see separate nations from UK, not just for football, but for the whole games. Just like the Commonwealth Games is. Scotland, Wales & N.Ireland want their independence, why not??
