postal postie Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 now dont laugh at me because i think this is a fair question! but should a player who was trained and played their whole career in scotland, who then moves to an english club, be classed as home grown in england? because i thought that scotland/england/wales would all be classed as home grown in the UK. yet in FM thats not the case and my scottish player isn't home grown. so anyone witha definitive answer then?

cris182 Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 no because its 2 different countries, you can't play for scotland and england at international level so how can you be home grown in both countries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashOverride Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 But by the same token you dont get an english passport but a british one. Plus its a UK flag that shows in game not the individual countries. But both good points! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus its a UK flag that shows in game not the individual countries.But both good points! my thoughts exactly. i dont know what it is in real life though. but considering it took SI quite a few years to get over the fact that a player doesn't gain 'english' nationality but 'british' nationality i thought that this may be considered an issue in the same light. but if its not the case in real life then thats fine!

cris182 Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 i suppose ultimately, the spl and epl are different countries who get into europe seperately not as a top GB team so they can't be home grown in both this is example for european comp registrations i know Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
4457 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Pretty sure as far as UEFA are concerned, the term isn't "country" but "association". Hence Scotland and England are different. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
