Now you are being racist Ben!!
I was referring to Ifil's decision to play for **insert Carribean island's name here** last season. Surely this means he can't be referred to as a "Brit" for such purposes as Mex's original post.

Wikipedia says Kanyuka was born in (The DR of)Congo. And so does soccerbase.

Like it STA, good pedantic work. Interestingly, my grandad was born in Prague in Austria-Hungary, my Mum in Prague in Czechoslovakia, and a cousin in Prague in the Czech Republic. My dad's family is from L'viv in Ukraine, which has been called Lemberg (by the Germans when they ran it) and Lvov by the Russians and Poles. Stalingrad was orignially Tsaritsyn, and is now Volgograd. Leningrad was St Petersberg, Petrograd for a few years and now St Petersberg again. All these changes in the 20th Century...by far my favourite century from a European History point of view. I may have had a point when I started...but I may not have. Oh, I reckon Brezovan's first name is Petr, rather than Peter... |
