 FIFA.com The Official web site of the Fédération Internationale de Football Association
Shrovetide football, as it was called, belonged in the "mob football" category, where the number of players was unlimited and the rules were fairly vague (for example, according to an ancient handbook from Workington in England, any means could be employed to get the ball to its target with the exception of murder and manslaughter).
After the English Football Association, the next oldest are the Scottish FA (1873), the FA of Wales (1875) and the Irish FA (1880).
Incidentally, it was not until nine years after the football rules had been established for the first time in 1863 that the size and weight of the ball were finally standardised.

 England national football team -
England would only play the other Home Nations (Scotland, Wales and what was then Ireland) for nearly 40 years - partly due to the dominance of the UK in international football, as well as the problems of arranging internationals in the days before air travel was commonplace.
For the first 50 years of its existence, the England team played its home matches at different venues all around the country; for the first few years it used cricket grounds, before later moving on to football clubs' stadiums.
England ensured qualification after a tense final game against Greece; David Beckham scored from a free kick in the last seconds of the game to make the score 2-2 and put England top of their group on goal difference.

 Serbia Info News / Quarter-final - a realistic reach
With no regards to the defeat by Netherlands, Yugoslav national team will be remembered for their excellent football technique, as British commentators pointed out.
Other members of our national team also admit they were disgraced in the quarterfinal match against one of the host selection of "EURO 2000".
Therefore, UEFA admitted only three scores to Kluivert in this match, so that the Dutch national team player is no longer leading scorer of the 11th European Championship, but he shares the first place with Yugoslav Savo Milosevic - they both scored five goals each.

 Welcome to Eritrean National Soccer Team Web
Just 2 say how proud i am that the eritrean football teams are doing so good from national to youths and league teams.
Most of the players on that team were new players to the eagles with several from the Under 23 team mixed with some old hands like Sunday Oliseh, Taribo West, Garuba Lawal and Tijani Babangida.
My question was why don't you tell us something about the teams that are playing in Eritrea, what their profile is,etc. I think that would be very interesting.

 BBC News TALKING POINT Should Britain have a single national football team?
One of the major benefits of having separate football teams in Britain is when they play each other, as can be demonstrated by England vs Scotland.
A UK team would just be England with Ryan Giggs.
I think it would be better for the British football teams to play in a regular 'six nations' style tournament as they hardly ever seem to get any practice playing as a team.
