Why do the English, Welsh, Scots and both Irish each represent their countries individually in major soccer competitions such as the World Cup and Euros but gang up together during the Olympics under the "Great Britain" banner.
Could be that pooling their limited talent is their only hope of willing a couple of Bronze medals.
Maybe the Americans and Mexicans ought to team up with mighty Canada and mop up all medals.

Ha ha, we don't do too bad as individual countries in the Commonwealth games either, we pull together when we're up against the rest of the World, common sense really.
GO Team GB!!!!!
