    How is Froch Polish?? He has an equal, if not greater amount of non-Polish blood. Witters mother is white english, so as much english as jamaican, same with Haye. When it boils down to it most of us are mongrels

    Seeing as we all descended from Africa, they are all African.


    What a silly thread, it's time some very bitter folk from some of the home nations grew up to be honest.

    I was born by accident of birth in Scotland (why the **** my parents couldn't have gone to Carlisle for the day I'll never know) but I consider myself English. I've grown up and lived here. My parents are English also. I have a very distant german bloodline. Home is where the heart is. I could claim my Scottish rights as I was born there but choose not to.
    What's annoying is people jumping on the bandwagon for places like Ireland because they might have a distant grandparent or parent from there. "Irish" matt macklin!? Don't make me laugh.
    And don't get me started on ****ing Andy Townsend

    Where have these "facts" come from? David Haye is of African descent, not Jamaican. He said it in an interview leading up to the Valuev fight.

    I am English, but I have Irish, Welsh, Scottish, French, and German decendents.

    The UK is a mongrel nation...EVERYONE living here will have a foreign decendant somewhere down the line.

    Poor attempt at trolling.

    ****ing hell. We ain't as bad as other nation's like the Yanks, French and Germans for example. Have you not seen the Brazilians in the German footy team! The French team is African Allstars isn't it?
    I'm white English with 2 half Jamaican brothers.
    It's 2011 get over it! Times change.

    It's become quite fashionable these days to have Irish blood. Even Barrack Obama jumped on board, visiting his "ancestral home" on his visit to ireland recently. :lol:


    In my opinion being British has got nothing to do with where your family originated from. Anybody who considers themselves British would know that...
