But doesn't that mean all the squad has to be Scottish, rather than nationality?

_Question 1_
Does Scottish as a second nationality (i.e. a naturalised player) count as Scottish for the purpose of the challenge?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Its an interesting question, because in the save im using Khizanishvili has gained a Scots nationality. Its up to Bob of course, but I'd suggest that a player be considered Scots if he hasnt been capped for another country. Assuming he's eligible of course. If he can be picked for Scotland, hes a Scot.

This is a good challenge- it was a pleasure voting for it It will be fun playing it (starting my story now).

I think PM7's suggestion is a good one- as long as possible to Cap for Scotland- dual nationality should be ok- but if does Cap for another, then if you have him- he must go.

Given how crap the Scottish front line is, I'm sure that the Scottish FA would welcome some dual nationalites capping for bonny auld Scotland.


Given my experiences with Scotland,I think it will be easier toget to the knockout stages of the Euro Champ. and World Cup, both of which can be done with ingenuity and luck. Winning the Champion's League or the UEFA Cup with an all Scots team would require one to basically assemble the Scots national team on your team which requires money, time and luck.

Thanks for your support guys. Perhaps a few clarifications are required.

1. To follow in the Lisbon lions footsteps you need to have a 100% Scottish first team squad (first 11 plus subs) for every game of the season in which you triumph in Europe.

2. "Scottish" is taken to mean any player who is eligible to play for the national team so dual nationalities are OK just as long as the player concerned has not been capped by the "other" nation. If you continue to play a "dual" after they have gained a cap for the other side then that will invalidate the current season.

Please let me know if anything else is unclear.

Lisbon Lions Challenge Log

Current Participants

When We Were Lions - Faramir makes a brave attempt at the challenge with Motherwell.

The Scots Are Revolting - mavericktango brings you a political slant in his attempt with Hearts.

The Lisbon Lions Challenge - Andy Cullen is having a try with the Lions themselves, Celtic.

We'll Just Play the Scottish Way - Terk is giving it a go with Hearts.

It's Not Caley, It's Caledonian - Gricehead indulges in some time travel with Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

Enid Blyton's Famous Five - Peacemaker7 goes even further forward in time as he looks to take Hibs to glory.

The Parkhead Panthers - my own modest attempt using Celtic.

I think that this is everyone at present but please let me know if I have missed anyone.

_Which means you may play the non-Scottish in the Scottish Premier League games ? As long as not for the Euro games rite ?_<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

No - I mean that every competitive game of the season must be played woth a Scottish squad if that season is to count towards the challenge.

I suppose there is no "deadline" for you to build a 100% scottish first team squad (plus subs).

If it's true, then it may take a few seasons to complete:-
2. Build a 100% Scottish playing squad
3. Win either the UEFA Cup or the Champions League

Which mean to say that you may get non-Scottish players to help qualify for Champions League Competition _(not to win it though!)_(for the first few seasons to help the club's financial situation eg: buy some below 17 non-scottish players and later sell them for millions of pounds the next season) afterwhich you may then attempt to build a 100% scottish squad and then start winning the UEFA Cup or the Champions League.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

There is absolutely no deadline and quite how the squad is built is up to each individual player. Some may prefer to go for a gradual approach and some may prefer something a little drastic. As you say, it doesn't matter who you use to qualify for Europe, it's who you use in the subsequent season that's important.
