Two other neat facts ...
1) The top country ... by a long shot ... is not even in
Europe. 53 Brazilians! Wow (and just think how many more must
be playing in Europe in teams that didn't quality for CL)
2) Ivory Coast can put a whole team out with 11 (probably
would have a dodgy keeper, but you know what I mean).
Also, I suppose if we look further down the table, we might
see New Zealand ... 1. Well done Chris Killen (can't
recall if he played the previous week, though). Any idea
how many Aussies?

We should also note that the latest round of Champions League saw
players from Gabon, Guinea and Burkina Faso grace the field.
If subs count, then Aussie get one player with Macdonald coming on for Celtic.
we dont count subs. otherwise the count wood be higher.
We all know that Scotland is better than England but this tops
it off.
And also a few Serbs and Romainians, wasnt expecting
that.

everyone.
Everyone? How does that work? I don't believe that Scotland is
better than England. As I understand it everyone means every person; everybody. So where do I fit
in? What is you know that I don't? Am I Bobo in
disguise....?
(Strangely: In Guinea bobo means boy. Now I know that in the case of Monsieur Balde, Bobo is the short form of his name Dianbobo. That said it always surprised me that he maintained the use of Bobo... any of that make sense?)

Accept your Scottishness - you know you want to!
