Question

if so how're they doing on soccer?

Answer 1

england is in uk n uk is takin part in d olympics as gr8 britain. dey're not takin part in olympic soccer. but i dono wats d reason.  

Answer 2

england are not in the 2008 olympics - they are a part of great britain, and there is no such thing as a great britain soccer team because it is made up of more than 1 country. England do have a soccer team but cannot participate because they do not have a separate National Olympic Committee.

Answer 3

The reason why England are not in the FOOTBALL is because we are part of Great Britain.

England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland make up GB but the four nations all have independent football teams. There is also a big rivalry between England and Scotland, so merging the fans isn't clever.

The Scottish and the Welsh FA don't want a GB football team but we will push ahead with one in 2012 whether the Welsh or Scots like it or not.

They wouldn't have any players in the starting 11 anyway!

Answer 4

Answer 5

They are competing in the olympics, under the code of Great Britain. As they compete with Scotland, Wales & part of Ireland.

As far as I know, they are not competing in soccer.
