sheffield

that was correct information , the player was born in england , therefore i put an english falg next to his name.... why dont u double check next time before you jump to any conclusions —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shantigk69 (talkcontribs) 22:15, May 2, 2007.

You're quite right that the player concerned was born in England. Probably what you didn't know, is that the flag is meant to show a player's footballing nationality rather than his country of birth. I should perhaps have explained that first, rather than giving the warning. Sorry!

well i dont see greek flags next to greek americans footballers? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shantigk69 (talkcontribs) 01:34, May 3, 2007.
Colin Kazim-Richards was born in England but plays football for Turkey, so in a football article, the Turkey flag is appropriate. If you know of a player born in the States (or anywhere else) who plays football for Greece, then in a football article, the Greece flag would be appropriate.
I don't know enough about Greek international football to know if there are any such players, but if there are, then it would be right to put a Greece flag. Hope that clears this up! 08:48, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

if you dont know much about football why ru editing football articles? you gave me a warning for no reasoN —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shantigk69 (talkcontribs) 14:18, May 3, 2007.

Warning

A - you're a geek B - amend it rather than reprimand us, though you can't C - Birmingham City are in fact known as the Bluesers (by Aston Villa fans) and therefore it is valid, not vandalism. If you did actually know about football and Birmingham you would realise this before being a geek and acting like you have authority. D - Paud McGrath is a footballer living and working in Birmingham and is in fact on the Birmingham City Roster, he lives near St Chad's Cathedral in Birmingham City Centre. E - Matthew Kelly has been rumoured as the new goalkeeper for Birmingham City, so i apologise that i didn't put this as a rumour rather than an amendmnet F - Lenny Henry is in fact a West Brom fan though is rumoured to be the successor of Steve Bruce from 2007 - —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.152.234.206 (talk)

To be fair, I wasn't entirely convinced by Steve Irwin RIP at no.15, either. But seriously, this is supposed to be an encyclopedia; if you want to improve the articles then you're more than welcome. Try having a look at the welcome page. Or if not, there's plenty of messageboards around the internet where you can exchange views with the Blosers if you'd rather do that.
