FIFA: Team GB will be Team England

May 31st, 2009 | By: Ian Rose | 2 Comments »

The disastrously bad idea that was Team GB for the London Olympics is finally dead today, as FIFA agreed to allow England to represent Great Britain at the games. I can’t say I’m 100% thrilled, as I loved the idea of a tournament playoff and thus the possibility of a Scotland team at the Olympics, but this is the next best thing. England will host the games, England will play at the games, and that’s entirely fine by me. I won’t promise to root them on or anything, but I’m glad it’s worked out.

Apologies for the long wait between posts. I’ll attempt to do a better job as we head into the summer World Cup qualifiers. Mon the Scots.
