Is Tom Lawrence injured.? If not his exclusion is ridiculous.

He is injured but he doesn't seem to get picked when he's fit either.

He's done well at Rangers this season. There are loads of reports that Page have snubbed him for his history:

Jersey is not even in the UK. It's a UK dependency
Re: Luke Harris in Welsh squad.
Nice to see Gunter & Jonniesta have also been handed new four-year contracts :biggrin:
Re: Luke Harris in Welsh squad.
I don't know his link with Wales, he's my cousin's nephew (via his wife). My cousin is from Cardiff, but his wife's family are Jersey.

Players born in UK dependencies such as the Channel Isles may choose any of the UK national teams to play for.

What a bizarre rule that is.
Might as well invite anyone born in France to pick a team here too.

Players born in France have a national team they can automatically play for.

uh?
Re: Luke Harris in Welsh squad.
I might have dreamt it but didn’t the Welsh FA have a go at getting Le Tissier to play for us?
Re: Luke Harris in Welsh squad.
Wales is the usually the best option for any half decent dual-qualified players, as they are almost guaranteed a long and fruitful international career. I've noticed a few talented young England qualified players are starting to look elsewhere too.

Here's one to be on. According to Wiki, almost 10% of the population of Jersey (107k) are Portuguese. It's quite an ethnically diverse place. About 25% non British or Jersey born.
