Well he was born in England for starters. His brother Tyler has represented both I believe, but I guess if you’re highly talented you want to go for the better footballing nation. If it looks like he’s not going to become full international for England, he can always go back to playing for Scotland.

Now, If you’re really born in the eighties, that’s a bit men vs boys, innit?
Toughen them up a bit!“Whatmuff” or “spike Brits”?
Cracking goal!
Cracking goals, awful celebrations!
I’ve never been able to find out for sure I Ole injured his knees with that celebration. Lots of rumours that he did.
He didn´t get his big injury from that.
Yep, I’ve read the exact same thing
Did he get an injury though?
He had a minor injury from it that caused him to miss a couple of summer internationals for Norway. He got injured against Panathinaikos in 2003, and that’s the one that ultimately caused him to retire in 2007. He was out for over a year with it after having a setback on his initial return. Was never the same after.
Christ I must be out because I winced at that jumping knee slide.
Haha I know. The first one was a poor attempt, but excuses can be made for it being such a lovely strike.
But the second one? Just a strange jump leading into the slide. It had to hurt.
I was going to add that same point to my post, that surely his dad would warn him about Ole and the dangers of a knee slide celebration, but I wasn't exactly sure and I thought that someone would jump on it and "well, actually" me that he has never confirmed it etc etc.
I feel more old about watching his father's debut at Man Utd
Same. My cousin who’s about 10 years older than me was with us watching it and she went “phwor who’s that?” when he came on and everyone thought she was joking. Turned out she wasn’t and she married this big ugly fella who doesn’t look dissimilar to Fletch. To be fair to Fletch, he matured into a better looking guy than my cousin’s partner did.
Fantastic player. Hope to see him make his first team debut this season or next!
Hopefully He, Collyear and Gore will be ETH projects this season
Hope at least one of them makes it in first XI
On the bench against Brentford. Well done, Jack!
Christ that makes me feel old
