Guest firetotheworks Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 This whole use of the term 'identifying' is undermining the people who aren't liars and/or attention-seekers. Examples Some lass on tumblr identifying as a fish finger - Nar, you're an attention-seeker A player that's not good enough to play for their home country identifying as someone from a tenuously linked country - Nar, you're a liar. Meanwhile, there are men identifying as women and visa versa, or players who've grown up in Germany but have Polish parents (for example) looking down on these chancers in the same way that we are.

SEMTEX Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Nut's pretty solid like. San Marino could do with someone Nutlike at the back. They've never been the same since Simone Bacciocchi retired from International duty. [/poncealias] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I find it pretty strange that Col Kazim Richards is being used as the example of this. I'm sure there are many examples of people playing for a country they have little relation to, but in addition to CKR having a Turkish parent, he moved to Turkey when he was 21 and has spent much of his career there. It's hardly the most typical path for an English player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
