That's not in the rules. Technically, you could have uncapped players, the only stipulation is one per nation.

 

Oh getting spicy

Think Babbs is right here

Not unless he played for them after 1960 you’re not. But I could put Sammer down as East Germany and pick someone from West/unified Germany, right? Right? 

 

Don't see why not

Since he wasn’t Colombian and didn’t play in any fifa recognised games for Colombia then I wouldn’t say so

Take it up with Stig. His rules don't state where a player is from, or anything to do with FIFA. He only says if they've "played" for more than one nation you have to nominate. Fredo played for Colombia.

 

If I'm wrong, it's Stig's fault, so he should be punished, not me.

You are wrong but I’m always happy to blame Stig tbh.

Never forget when someone - might have been Lee - included Socrates in a draft of people who’d played in England because he played one game for Garforth Town in 2004. Caused murder. 

 

Wait until people realise Platini played a game for Kuwait!

What's the score then with people playing for multiple countries? I'm thinking of putting Sammer down as East Germany and picking a West German but if everyone else is playing it straight then I'll leave it. I don't want to do the honourable thing, however, and then someone else *coughs Col* does something like try and put Platini down as Kuwait.

I'm not sure it's even that big an advantage, there are loads of Stoichkov, Kuskas and Modric types available anyway.

I checked with Stig and he said if it was on wiki I could have it. 
 

But I’m prepared to play cricket if everyone is going to.
