Lambies_Apprentice Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) Kevin Harper went to Colston Secondary in Glasgow along with someone I know, so is it entirely true he was brought up in Edinburgh?

WaffenThinMint Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Kevin Harper was born in England but raised in Edinburgh. Black Scottish-born footballers include Chris Mackie (ex Alloa), Malcolm Kpedekpo (ex Aberdeen), Chris Ogboke (ex Montrose). Callum McRobbie of Aberdeen's U19s could be mixed race? Cowdenbeath's Joe Mbu has played for Junior Scotland but he was born in London as far as I know. Gordon Lennon of Dumbarton was born in Northern Ireland but I've no idea how long he's been over here - he joined Albion Rovers from Govan juvenile side Harmony Row. There are a few other black players in the non-leagues such as Dan Gerrard and Max Asante but I don't know if they were born in Scotland either. I think Arniston's Ubong Umatong came up from England and I've no idea where Albion Rovers signed Abou Mansare from - he's now at St Anthony's. East Craigie have a black forward called Josh Perera. Maybe you could check this one for me, but in the early years of Scottish football, wasn't there a player born in Nigeria with a Glaswegian father called M'Boza Itché? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padayr Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Out of interest, why can't you bring yourself to write the word "English"? It really isn't difficult.

endieinreekie Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) Did Montrose not have the first black manager in Scotland called Dave Smith a few years back? Edited June 3, 2009 by endieinreekie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wunfellaff Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Gil Scott-Herons dad that was on Celtics books was born in Jamaica so he would have qualified.

football maniac Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 I had a conversation about this with a mate at work who is from Cameroon. We both came to the conclusion that the reason is that there just aren't that many black people in scotland. The number is definitely increasing and I think in about 10-15 years there will probably be at least a couple of black players in the scotland team. IMHO this will be a very good development. Scotland really lack both pace and power and black players (not all i might add) tend to have more of both (yes I know that is a bit of a generalisation but it's also fairly accurate). Already signs that this might come true, with Islam Feruz getting called up for the u17s and Mohammed Yaqub getting called up for the u16s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLights Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I see a 14 year old kid who is originally from Somalia has been called up to the U17 Scotland squad.

Feruz, 14, came to Glasgow seven years ago with his mother and two younger sisters, seeking asylum because of violence between rival warlords. They were granted permanent refugee status in 2007. “Since my family and I came to Scotland seven years ago, we have been made to feel very welcome,” said Feruz, a pupil at Hillhead High School. “I have been very proud to live in Scotland. It’s a great country which is now my home and I will be very proud to wear the Scotland jersey.” The Scottish FA chief executive, Gordon Smith, added: “Islam is a fine example of the type of person that this new rule is designed to benefit.
