Is this a bit of a farce? Freddy Eastwood got called up to the Wales squad on account of his next door neighbour once growing leaks down the allotment.

Now Alex Bruce has switched from ROI to NI and he was born in Norwich

Definitely a farce, pretty much only ever done by people who aren't good enough to represent their real country.

Disagree. In the past it was definitely the case but with the likes of France and their majority of African players and Germany full of Pole's and Austrian's it's went full circle.
