I'd also like to see some Scandinavian players at the club.

Iceland are doing pretty well, I'm sure we could do with one or two of them.

Wait... Is Iceland part of Scandinavia?

I wonder if someone can clear this up for me.

It has been explicitly excluded from it throughout English history. Go look it up mate.

England does not consider it part of the low countries.

I'm not England, my friend.

I know my history, and my geography, well enough.

Nope. Just Nordic, I'm afraid.

Scandinavian refers to the Scandinavian peninsula, and the countries that occupy it.

No mate, Scandinavia[a] /ˌskændᵻˈneɪviə/ is a historical and cultural region in Northern Europe characterized by a common ethno-cultural North Germanic heritage[dubious – discuss] and mutually intelligible North Germanic languages.

We need @bizzaro to settle this.

Lads.....

It's great to hear we are signing Belgian and Dutch international rather than Wigan no. 1-4. Moshiri gives Everton the edge to succeed. What a summer this will be...

There is also a province of Belgium that is called Luxembourg - it borders......Luxembourg.

Not sure what Luxembourg is famous for, but whilst driving along the French Belgian Border I passed the Duchy on the Left Hand side.

Sorry I'm Wafflin' on

The English perspective is obviously always the correct perspective.

True.

Who mentioned the Low Countries? I said Benelux.....of which Luxembourg is quite clearly a part.

Just to clarify this for you guys Scandinavia is Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Iceland is Nordic like you mentioned.
I am Norwegian and have to deal with all the kopites here on a daily basis.
