Mo Farah

[turienzo's lovechild]

Take our Harper from Real Mardrid. Moved their as a boy and Spain wanted him to represent Spain, he declined as he's Scottish and wants to play for his Motherland and rightly so as well.

what's that got to do with african born footballers and the FA?!

(harper was born in spain as well)

Can i buy your cousin a pint ?

Get a pint in for Mo too while you are at it, what's more British than celebrating sporting success down the pub with your mates.

We will both have a bag of pork scratching too while you're at the jumps......what's more British than that eh?

Lovely.......no wait where's Mo?

So, no practicing Muslim or Jew can be British? That's a pretty narrow minded attitude

Are you saying Tony Bloom isn't British? What a nasty attitude.

This is how they feel in Rio

He probably training.

 

[ManOfSussex]

He probably training.

He might be watching fellow British gold medallist and teetotaller Andy Murray play tennis though.

I think you'll find that the Scot, Murray LOST yesterday.

That's true. It's was a very good win by the Briton over Del Potro a week earlier though.

 

[el punal]

oh well

Great song by Fleetwood Mac (the Peter Green one) from 1969/70 era.

Or any teetotaller, or vegetarian......

I'd say that is unlikely, not sure if the rules have changed but you can lose your citizenship if you do that for more than four years plus it's harder when you have ties like property in the UK. I'd say he probably gets tax breaks on the 90 day rule which anyone would do if they worked and trained like he does for nine months a year in Oregon.

Under what rule do you lose your citizenship if you are a non-resident for tax purposes? I am not aware of any.

Got to have someone to blame, eh?

 

[Icy Gull]

Based on those comments he is early more British than both of you. Anyone who thinks he is not is clearly lacking a few brain cells.

Yes clearly he is more British than me, my father is Irish and my mother English.

Do you have anger management issues or are you just a confrontational dick? I have already stated that I didn't realise Mo Farrah came here at 8 years old and have rescinded my original comments.

Let it go eh?

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Mo Farah has never beaten a World record or even come close to it

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

I can trace back my paternal line to the 1500s, not only in England, but in Sussex.

Mo is as British as me.

Yeah but are you Cornish??

They have the purest British DNA (with the Welsh). They are the native Britons.

In which case the next Olympics is a walkover for Africa
