depends luke.you could be born in wales off english parents.depending how you were brought up you may feel british.if that,s the case i would imagine it would be a case of which country offered you a chance to represent them.if turner and showcross feel english then they are correct in not playing for you.tbh i,d be interested to see know how english they felt if gary speed was still around and you were looking a real contender to qualify for brazil.michael magic johnson was nottingham born and defo a black geezer who was english.after jamaica qualified for the world cup he and a few others were asked to play.it,s a lot easier to find your roots when the team have just called to ask if your interested in playing in a w.c final. :lol: in all honesty i cannot see shawcross or turner playing for england.maybe shawcross may get a call up for a friendly max

Good on them, I say! If they do not consider themselves to be Welsh it would be wrong to play for us. Did Giggs consider himself English?

The irony of the Welsh FA and Welsh nazis on here being against Team GB yet ask two Englishmen to play for Wales along with countless other Englishmen and Zambians.

Laughable, truly laughable.

If I was good enough to play for England I'd be there in a shot.


If I was a decent player only likely to get a cameo role or squad player at best then I'd stick to Wales.

Call me selfish but we aren't going to qualify for a tournament so it's almost pointless being in the team.


Fair enough but not how I think at all.

I'd rather lose every game playing for Wales than win 1 playing for England.
