why no gb olmpic footy team?

Surely Mr. Brown should go the whole hog and enter us up for USA's B Team ...

I think it all goes back to the fact that the English FA have decided that they are above playing games like the Home Internationals etc. and that unfortunately has came back to bite them on the bum with Northern Ireland and Scotland saying hang on a minute we can be awkward as well - so no thanks big fella.
