Is Norrie one of our own?
Well his mother is Welsh, born in Cardiff.
His father is Scottish mind.
Talk Sport though of course said he was English.

English when he wins, Welsh or Scottish when he loses.

Don't think he's ever narrowed down any allegiance other than to being British.

Re: Is Norrie one of our own?
No part of him is English. Therefore I back him.

Re: Is Norrie one of our own?
Father is Scottish, Mother is Welsh, he was born in South Africa and brought up on New Zealand. I’m a strong believer that no one can tell somebody else what their national identity has to be, but surely he idea of him as an Englishman is stretching it a bit.

The guy is not British. He moved here with his parents when he was 16.

Re: Is Norrie one of our own?
Shouldn't we just wait until LoM or Lither_1927 pronounces? That should settle whether he is naturally born or not!

:hehe: ain't that the truth! Seriously though, he's been under the radar for the build up to Wimbledon but if you look at his results he's been winning some biggies on the tour. Seems like a really nice lad too. So he's definitely Welsh!

Re: Is Norrie one of our own?
Apparently he's a Magpies fan. Needs to change his ornithological allegiance to a Bluebird.

I used to think that metrosexual meant someone who rogers on the tube.

Re: Is Norrie one of our own?
No it means someone who uses products on skin, hair and the A470.
