I can't see it - He is on a long contract, financially they are stable and they lose him they are less likely to go up which has to be a realistic objective for them and not doing so would have massive financial implications. Maybe they are bidding for Scannel to strengthen, rather than replace.
although i don't agree with it, it's where you go to school that can qualify your national team.
bit like Zaha at Palace and i believe Victor Moses aswell, refered to as young english players but were born in africa.
I don't think that's right - Ryan Giggs played for England Schools but was/is never qualified to play for England, as he was born in Wales to Welsh parents. You qualify by your country of birth, plus parents'/grandparents' & can also qualify via long-term residency (hence Arteta could play for England I think).
Didn't Giggs say that he couldn't play for England in an interview, as his parents were Welsh and he was born in Wales. He played for England Schoolboys as he was a schoolboy in England and a Japonese player could have been eligible to play for England schoolboys if he was at school here. Having said that, surely if he wanted to play for England he could have done it on residency, which being Welsh, you can understand him not wanting to do.
Presumably, it is easier to play for England if you come from a country like Africa if you have a British passport ass Zaha and Moses probably have. I think you can chose which of the home countries you represent in that case.
Didn't John Robinson represent Wales because he was born in Zimabwe and thus his British passport had no link to any particular home country giving him the choice?
Just watched Sky News sports and they were just talking about Rhodes.. they said everyone in Huddersfiedl are saying Rhodes is going nowhere and only club alledged to come in for him is Norwich according to sky bet but the guy on there said himself they would be mad to sell him and think they would hold on to him. If not then it will then Sheff Utd and Weds will be able to fight it out to go up with Charlton....
interesting that Huddersfield have put in a bid for scannell from palace and now hagve signed murray wallace? Have they had a bid accepted by Norwich after all but asked them to keep it quiet......

Good place for him to end up aswell to be honest. Lambert has brought in some very decent players.

Just pray that we keep playing the way we have been, then he can be any kind of machine he likes.
Not true, I remember my mate a school having pictures of giggs in a England kit playing at school boy level
EDIT: sorry, didnt see your link to the image.
So if he played for the school boys, how comes he couldnt play for the full team ?
