There have been whispers about this happening at campaign since the first event where it was suggested there would be a women cup a notional cup and a youth cup so I don’t think anyone had any insider information I just think other factors meant the inclusion of a UK team was less likely until the last minute where requirements were changed.

To me i see it like this, its happening not matter what notice was given.

The down side to this is that yes these guys play well for there given teams but, will they with the short time they have been given work well as a team on the field, we can but all wish they can and beat the ass of the other nations entering.

Be it right or wrong i say good luck to those that have been chosen to represent the UK.

A french squad of 18 players (they will reduced it when after having watched the first day at basildon to see who is playing better on this field, injured...) has being given a while ago. (Like a week after bitburg, when the "french coach" watched most players in game to have a better idea of players he doesn't know much).

I don't think the millennium gave more or less information to some countries, I reckon it just some countries knew they would be doing it straight away, while others did think twice before to give an answer.

WOW, sounds like the French are planning to kick some ass. They have their act together and no shortage of interest from their players, or so it would seem.

I did hear last week that the French had trials a last week, but we can't do much about that and I just have to go with my gut feeling about players and go from there!!!

It would of been a lot better if we had been told a long time ago to sort things out, and also had someone else coaching it as people always say that I'm a good coach but I don't see it that way!! If you think about it all I do really is sort most things out for my Team, and how many so called Coach'sare there?? none really.
