Well my suggest was that its kinda pointless to call the team UK & Ireland when only English players will play for it :/ I'd rather we got full credit when we win the BWC :P

orrrr treat each other with some class and maybe Irish players wouldn't make such a big deal about the situation.

although mhz can be a douche i don't think it's fair to put history on the british members shoulders, there's fuck all they can do about it.

yeah I agree, but when you talk down Irish people why the fudge would they want to play with you? It's like if we talked down to Quebec players and expect them to play for Canada.

[Jeenyuss]

it's different in the fact that the few irish people around don't want to play for them already, so why have them in the title? whereas most of our quebec players don't really give a shit that they're playing for their masters.

mhz talks down everyone its hardly personal..... I'm happy to play with anyone in the UK & Ireland team. I think most of the English people in the team are happy to play with anyone from UK & Ireland. So prehaps you could get past our boneheaded captain and consider playing with some of your neighbours, alot of people in the UK & Ireland team would like to see people from all the nations playing. Then again if the other nations don't want to play with the English we think the team should be renamed, its only right we get full credit if we win :P

If we all play together we can field a much stronger team and have a better chance of winning. Split up I don't think we will do as well. We are all in the EU now so prehaps we can put some historical differences aside... I wasn't even born when any of this shit happened.

I think Mhz shouldn't captain esepcially if he has a bias towards Irish players, Pressure Drop is good enough to play and Mhz might just bench him for the point of benching him. I think there needs to be more effort into deciding who should captain and who shouldn't.

Doc only one or two players have openly said they won't play for UK and you want to remove them from the title? How does this encourage Irish people who might not opt out of playing for you to keep playing with you? I'd seriously be on the fence until you guys did that and pretty much never come back after that point.

[Kolar]

Maybe just using 'The United Kingdom' would be better next time. The UK refers to Scotland, England, Ireland and Whales anyways.

[Galleleo]

UK doesn't refer to Ireland, it refers to Northern Ireland.

[DankNuggets]

call it "Brittish Isles"

I had the impression it was more than just one or two. If it is just one or two players then there's not really an issue.

The way it was reading to me, from the posts by people in this thread was NONE of the irish or scotish players will play for the UK & Ireland team.

If as you say the situation is different, i see no reason to change the team name :wub:
