I'm bothered about football, obvs as the kids say, but think I would've struggled to be arsed to want to play for England and would've declared for Ireland as it always looked more fun.

I qualify for both Irelands and Scotland. I'm 46, a stone overweight and have a penchant for substance abuse. Why couldn't I be fucking Welsh?!

You would be right at home in the Ireland squad, get the passport

[Brazilian Villain]

I would be eligible for England, Ireland, Northern Ireland and a small Central American country.

British Honduras?

[pablo_picasso]

I would be eligible for England, Ireland, Scotland & Italy.

But because I was born in England, I could only ever choose England.

British Honduras?

Yes 😮

I've never met anyone with roots to that country from Birmingham outside of family.

Was it just a lucky guess?

The St George Cross debate highlighted why I hate international football. Too much jingoistic right-wing bandwagon jumping twattery. Hopefully more players will follow White's example and the whole nonsense will fizzle away...

Why does this have any connection with right wing?Thats nonsense. It’s our national flag, which I’m proud of,  so why should it be changed to suit some sportswear company. No way they’d do it to the Stars and Stripes.

A very feisty response but it's been done before (England kit in 2011 and 12 and Union Jack was colour manipulated for Athletes tops in 2012 Olympics) by sports wear companies. And they won't do it to to S&S because Yanks are narrow minded imbeciles.

The last England shirt that had the flag on it was 2002. What exactly has been changed?

How can you be proud of a flag?

Pass your driving test -  proud, your grandchild scores a goal - proud.

But someone draws a red cross on a white background? I’m struggling to muster ambivalence.

[AlexAlexCropley]

I like to think I would have been the centre of a tug of war between England and ROI and I would have declared for England only to jump ship at the last minute to piss them off.

The crest debate gets people going

[Risso]

I’d qualify for Wales through both maternal grandparents, and was nearly Welsh myself. Thankfully, my mum got me over the border into the finest English county there is just in time.

If I were cynical, I'd wonder whether their marketing team have worked out a way of getting people to talk about their brand.
