    Tim Henman can play in the Olympics?

    I thought the Olympics were for amateurs only...

    I think that was dropped a while back Cheese. Craig Moore who plays for Rangers has been put on tranfer list because he insists on playing for Australia in the Football. I think.

    I could be wrong but that sort of thing stopped years ago, I think the amateur definition has been altered to just not receiving any money to compete in the Olympics.

    I'd be interested in the specifics though. Not quite sure how it works

    Yeah, Alex Ferguson has had quite a strop because two of his players, Ronaldo and Heinz, are competeing and will be too knackered to play for the club that pays their wages when they return. I agree with him too because he's always right

    Yeah they are, also there are other weird rules like the football teams have to use players under 21 - with the exception of three squad members.

    I don't understand it either
