this one should get Sky Sports new season off to a bang

Derrick chisora was raised in Zimbabwe until he was 16 but his now classed as English? You logic doesn't make sense for the is actually said in the media

 

My Dad was born in Malaysia and grew up in Zimbabwe so where would you class him? If your parents are British, you're brought up as British, but you're born in another country you're still British... It should really go down to what you consider yourself. Saying that, there are a lot of plastic paddies...

 

He is Malaysian :good

 

Not really bothered what he's classed as. So long as he's in entertaining fights that's all I'm concerned with.

 

You just edited this post

But in response to you saying i contradicted myself.

Tell me how? I said i would class Froome as Kenyan. If i suddenly upped sticks to America after being born and raised in England. I wouldn't class myself as American.

Has Macklin ever lived in Ireland atsch How on earth can he be Irish.

 

Using your logic than am kiln is Irish , both his parent moved to Birmingham in there 20's for work and he played hurling for ballingarry and is in Ireland ye whole time, could someone explain to me the definition of a plastic paddy because if macklins one then about 40% of the British population are plastic brits

 

No s*** sherlock

 

Really who gives a ****?

Ltes just look forward to what should be a cracking grudge match

 

Because both his parent only moved to Ireland in there 20's

And yes he did live in Ireland during the summer hence why he became good at hurling and you see him over here the whole

So is chisora English?

 

If there plastic Brits the. Why do they suddenly become English when they do well at sport eg mo farah


If he wasn't a great runner he would be seen as a refugee

 

No Chisora isn't English. If you are born in a certain country and you live there, thats where you are from. It's not hard to understand. Regardless of what your parents are

 

Mo Farah is Kenyan or whichever African country he came from. I don't make the rules of which country he can represent. He isn't English or British though.

 

Then why does everyone call him English, I admit that your right but your contradicting what the rest of you country says and does , good at sport=British not good at sport=refugee

 

Then why does the British media claim that he is? And the people of britian

 

When I think of plastic paddies I mainly think of americans who want to be irish. They have a great granddad whose father went on holiday to Ireland so that makes them irish.

I think people get funny about Macklin being irish because he always seemed brummie but then suddenly jumped on the whole irish band wagon in the states, which commercially makes a lot of sense for him.
