    good news for the caribbean. However, one correction. By no stretch of the imagination can you call him 'Jamaica's John Barnes".
    That's like saying England's Shaka Hislop...

    However, if you were to say Jamaican John Barnes and Englishman Shaka Hislop you could probably get away with it.
    yeah i know i'm nitpicking but its just that kind of day :D

    glad to see Roberts doing well. seems he is tied for top scorer on team with 4 goals...which isn't impressive but Sparta are not too good right now. But i am very glad to hear he is doing well.

    That followed up a goal 3 days before, and another a week before that.

    Stern has a tendency to go on these tears :
    4 goals in 4 games in October, 5 goals in 5 games in late November/early December, 4 goals in 3 games in February


    Jason Scotland scored his 20th season goal for Swansea on Monday 25th against MK Dons in the JPT semifinal.

    Nathan Ellington is hoping to earn a shock call-up to the Bosnia and Herzegovina squad.



    The Watford striker is married to a Bosnian and has now revealed that he plans to discover if he can become eligible to represent the Balkan nation.

    Ellington already qualifies to play for England, Dominican Republic and Jamaica.

    He has so-far resisted overtures to play for either of the Caribbean nations but the Bradford-born forward claims he would be happy to turn out for Bosnia and is planning talks to find out if his dream can become a reality.

    Speaking to Bosnian state television, Ellington said: "I love Bosnia and Herzegovina.

    "I went there last summer with my wife, we visited Sarajevo and several other places. I was fascinated by the beauty of the country.

    "My wife proposed the idea of me playing for their national team and I really liked the idea and I hope to make the contact with the officials soon.

    "I would just like to help them."

    I don't think marriage qualifies you to play for a country. You'd have sham marriages all over the place. Now if he has nationality it could be a different story. The fact that he is well past 21 should be the nail in the coffin though...I'm not sure, these Statutes are a hard read :eek:

    According to Wikipedia, Regis was naturalized

    I wasn't suggesting that he gained eligibility uniquely because of marriage. As far as I'm aware his naturalization was a direct consequence of his being married to an American. I assume Ellington's idea is no different.

    I think naturalization laws depend on each country individually.
