I remember reading on here that he had previously been uninterested in representing NI, and had underage caps for Japan. He's 27 now

Bobby Karen, as I think you call him in Nihon. Although given the dross our men's team are offering at the moment, a whole team of Karens couldn't be much worse.

So I presume players in Britain are allowed then??

Add in Ciaran O'Brien of the Atlanta Silverbacks who play on the NASL a league below MLS. Midfielder, played before for Colorado in MLS.

Also Eamon Zayad isn't he playing in Iran now?

Are you sure it's not hold? I always thought it was hold.

EDIT: Seems it is car hole and not -hold. Sigh. Though both seem cromulent to me.
