    That's quite good, I think it's more unusual that there is any team that has ever fielded 11 Englishmen.

    When was the last time Barnsley fielded 11 Englishmen? we've always had our fair share of Scottish and Irish players for as long as I can remember

    Argument is Boro fielded an English XI at Fulham in the 2000's but James Morrison went on to represent Scotland, despite being English, so it doesn't count(apparently)
