thewellander Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I would be upset if Newcastle didn't have English players, and I'm Canadian! Obviously, you're happy when your club players do well, but you have to cheer for your home country. In the case of Canadians, we tend to cheer for the country of our descent, and we're still very loyal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest toonbaz Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 i was very much on the verge of supporting andorra tonight simply because i despise the fact we employed mclaren as england manager. would have found it so amusing had we drew 0-0 tonight, i find supporting enlgand almost as frustrating as supporting the toon. back to the question in hand though, in my opinion it would depend on the situation, if it were in a world cup then i'd be behind england without a doubt. i find it so hard to get enthusiastic about england these days apart from wc or euros.

What about if Newcastle signed 5 Northern Irish players??? As I stood, sang, shouted and watched another proud night in Windsor Park last night, I could see what it means to all those players to play for their country. The Northern Ireland team always gives 100% commitment to the team, as England found to their peril, even if as individuals the players are only seen in the lower leagues. The commitment is something that Newcastle could learn from and I think we could do worse than signing a few NI players, rather than high paid former stars!!
