608.0. "Club versus Country...." by IRNBRU::HOWARD (Shower me with sugar lumps) Thu May 22 1997 10:13

    Right folks, this subject is due a note of its own, what's your opinion
    on the club versus country argument?...
    
    My opinion is that I have almost ZERO sympathy with the clubs. Having
    an international player on your team is an honour and the latest saga
    with Robbie Fowler makes me sick, the guy was suspended for the last 2
    weeks of the season and 3 weeks later when Hoddle announces his latest
    England squad Roy Evans pulls him out and books him in for an
    operation on his nose. Hoddle may not pick Fowler in future because of 
    this, (to England's detriment), and the same has happened in other 
    countries,(Ginola?,Cantona?,Baggio?)....
    
    Maybe we could all answer one question....if you had a choice between
    you favourite club winning the league or your country winning the World
    Cup which would you choose?...
    
    Ray....
