Just a hypothetical but... an Afghan refugee comes over at age two... surely they'd be more British if they feel it (and why wouldn't they when Britain would be the only thing they'd know), than Afghan and feeling an affinity with the Taliban and IS!
Coming over here, with their exceptional sporting talent, wanting to represent the country.
And Cliff Richard is Indian and John McEnroe is German.His logic means Sir Mo Farha isn't British
That girl is special - Henman Hill, Murray Mound - soon to become Raducanu Ridge?
Hope she can keep it together until the final.
Not least cause it would be a sensational matchA Raducanu Vs Fernandez final would be amazing.
Don’t profess to be a follower of tennis outside of Wimbledon but some achievement for the young lady to make the final. Well done that woman
It’s amazing well called!!A Raducanu Vs Fernandez final would be amazing.
Overseas SPOTY?Ditto - early days, but would think she's probably odds on for Sports personality of the year already! (Edit: apparently was 9/1 yesterday, now down to evens !!))

No. Even if she wins multiple slams. You can keep baiting like the poundshop Grendel you've become, but still no and having watched her and enjoying Tennis I probably have more invested in her than some cheap IRA supporting troll.Still no British Rob?
Don't think it really matters if it is, if she wins it. Not like we've been flushed with success.but is this a 'LCFC winning the Prem' type moment - in as much as all of the 'big hitters' failed to show?
Don't want to put the dampeners on this - and I think living here since 2 yrs old qualifies her as 'British', so no issues there but is this a 'LCFC winning the Prem' type moment - in as much as all of the 'big hitters' failed to show?
Serena Williams all but retired, Naomi Osaka with her continuing mental health issues and Sabalenka falling one short.
She is clearly an immense talent and I hope she goes on to win the title but is this one of those brief (probably never to be repeated) window of opportunity moments?
If she moved here when she was 2 and has British citizenship, she's British.Don't want to put the dampeners on this - and I think living here since 2 yrs old qualifies her as 'British', so no issues there but is this a 'LCFC winning the Prem' type moment - in as much as all of the 'big hitters' failed to show?

Yeah it's slightly different if you move purely for a sporting passport - a number of Norwegian long distance runners who'd been Kenyan until a few years previous spring readily to mind.I don’t disagree I do baulk at the notion Kevin Pieterson is though
