I honestly don't understand the fuss, as I understand it the various FA's are dead against it because they fear they would lose their national identity with eventually all National teams merging into one British team. Which would never happen and you can use the British Lions Rugby team as an example.
It's a stupid argument and just seems to prove that there is definitely an inferiority/superiority complex between all the FA's.

I don't see why we get to have separate teams anyway. This should have been removed a long time ago.

To be fair as far as I remember it is only the Scottish FA that is against it. To be fair to them there was talk of having asked Blatter to confirm that entering a GB team would not result in a loss of the individual association teams and he didn't comment - so the fear has some sensible basis.
I would agree however that there is no sensible reason why FIFA shouldn't just say it's all cool and everyone can just get on with it.

I think it's a foul, and if the ref gives it. He got to give a penalty. I know it's outside the box, but you see them given that close to the area. So if the ref gives it he's got to give the penalty as it so close to the area. But I think it's a penalty. Robbie Savage 8/11/06
