Not a bad effort. It would have been better if it was a pissed off Englishman who put it up rather than a bitter sweaty.

PM Tony Blair wants unified Britain soccer team for 2012 Olympics
LONDON (AP) - Tony Blair wants a unified Britain playing soccer at the 2012 London Olympics. The Prime Minister said it's time for the home countries to play under one flag for the first time since the 1956 Olympics in Melbourne, Australia.
"I think it would be a good idea," Blair told the Times of London on Wednesday. "When you are hosting the Olympics and you have lots of countries who send their teams, it would be a shame if we didn't have one of our own."
London 2012 Chairman Sebastian Coe agreed with the prime minister.
"I want a Britain team, we will have a Britain team," Coe said. "But I also want to maintain the independence of the domestic federations to compete in European cups and World Cups."
The International Olympic Committee doesn't recognize separate teams from Britain's home countries - England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.

Each country's soccer association qualifies for and plays separately at the World Cup and European Championship.
After the four countries met last November to discuss a unified team, only England and Northern Ireland agreed in principle to the idea. Scotland and Wales fear joining a combined team would dilute their authority in world governing body FIFA.
Alex Salmond, leader of the Scottish National Party, demanded a statement from Mr. Blair over his remarks.

"Is it the Prime Minister's wish for this just for the Olympics or does he wish like previous Labour ministers to abolish the Scottish soccer team altogether?" Salmond asked.
"Why should he be attempting to bully the Scottish soccer association and the Welsh authorities into doing something that they believe would jeopardize their position in international football?"
The Football Association of Wales secretary general David Collins said last December there was no possibility of a change of mind.
"All of the people in Wales and the media, press and television, are in agreement in that decision," Collins said. "No way would the spectators based in Wales like to see Wales stop playing as a national team."
The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff and Glasgow's Hampden Park are both listed as venues for Olympic soccer competition in 2012. Both could be taken off the list.
Britain, an Olympic soccer gold medallist in 1900, 1908 and 1912, would have a men's team for the first time since the 1956 Olympics and a women's team for the first time.

Why do sprinters and I guess other athletes compete under Great Britain at the olympics but not as England? This just crossed my mind....anyone could help me out?
-
Ithink its just to be as " one " like u guys are trinidad and tobago together not just trinidad.
Whereas in football Scotland etc like to feel independent in the main sport.
-
the reason is England is not a country
Great Britain is the country, england is part of it.
Plenty things at stake if they split up
You have that whole NRA thing
Brent North Sea Oil etc
The play seperate in football because over the years that was a way they used to compete against each other
So Fifa just adopt each team as seperate.
But to be different countries, Scotland England Northern Ireland would all have different Govt.
Right now they are one Govt.
Them english not giving that up no way no how.
This is tha last great empire.
This goes way back
all the way back to Brave Heart "mel Gibson" days if you see that movie you can see the History as to why is one country!

What a most confusing statement this is!!! Have you ever heard the adage that 'a little knowledge is dangerous'? Well this statement certainly is, and to suggest that England is not a country is complete tosh!! Under devolution both the Scottish and the Welsh have their own parliaments so the statement that the English won't give up the British thing as its an Empire thing couldn't be further from the truth. And finally, you don't get accurate history watching a useless film with an Australian leading actor rambling on about freedom! What rubbish!! Go back to your history books before making ridiculous claims like this!!!

I thought I was the only who thought he was talking nonesense. lol But ah didn want tuh play fass n say something. And Ocky, in the West indies, we only study European/Britsh history so much as it applies to the Caribbean, so you can't tell him to go back to his History books if he doesn't know about the contemporary political aspects of Great Britain.

I heard that Britain is fielding a team for London 2012.
There was always the fear that an Olymoic team would be the first step towards a British team in FIFA but with the autonomous leagues of the home Nations this is unlikely.

as the author of Braveheart said "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story" ;D
why would we not give up Britain? loose all the work shy scots and their welfare cheques and that covers off the lost revenue from the Brent oil fields. As for Wales and Northern Ireland, apart from good training grounds for our troops, they don't really offer a great deal do they.
I don't think anyone would deny there is lots of positives of putting forward a British football team for the 2012 olympics, but it just won;t happen. The different Football Associations are just a bunch of set in their ways old men who would all want to run it.
anyway, Ryan Giggs will be too old so there is no point having a British team as far as I can see, we may well just call it England :rotfl:
