    Those guys can be anything from Cameroonians to Colombians. However, if they're good, I want them Haitians:)

    PST: Pinau, Erichot, Gagnon do not sound like Haitian last-names at all. Those are lastnames you would probably find in Martinique, Guadeloupe, and maybe Quebec (specially, Gagnon).

    sorry but those guys cannot be Africans as their names do not even come close to sounding or being african.

    Wow, are you serious??

    Your saying that just from the fact that these players have none african names means they are not african??

    If that's the case, how do you explain a guy with the surname Dick, representing your national team?? Dick isn't a african name is it?? Or am i mistaken??

    Oh really. I could have sworn that that name had english/french/german origins. But i guess i was wrong. Weird thing is, that while researching it, i found that every name site that had a definition of Herbert, is also mistaken because they all say its a European name. Oh well, guess they must all be wrong and you must be right :rolleyes:

    Oh and what's your take on Joseph-Antoine Bell?? Not a very african name, yet he is one of that continents greatest ever goalkeepers. Or maybe Jean-Claude Pagal, or maybe Albert Roger Miller, Richard Kingson, Thomas Hammond??? You know i could go on and on as the examples are endless, but i hope that by now you get the point. That being that even though you don't have an african name, you could still be african.

    True, Bana. Zim may not know that because he's from the 'english world', a commonwealth country. Haiti in fact sent thousands of teachers to the french-speaking african countries in the 1960's to help those countries as they were gaining their independence from European powers. Congo, Guinea, Ivory Coast and many other countries have people of Haitian descent. One of my colleagues at work actually told me that in his secondary school, there were just three teachers: they were all Haitians!

    If his name was Drogla (the drug), I would say yessss:D:D:D

    No Zim, I am not saying that ALL west-africans are Haitians. I only said that some Haitians were sent to West-Africa in the 60's therefore a west-african may have bantou last-name and he's still Haitian. So, it's a merry-go-around.
